RE your comment about the gut biome, the sample of pooh you need to send off it actually quite simple to take (obviously) but you need to wait a while for the results (couple of months from memory?) so it might be worth biting the bullet and getting on with it, hopefully it will then start...

I think he's lovely too, but then I would I've got a mirror image including the black spots on (her) back feet. Her walk is a bit disappointing too but she's still jumping, at 7 she maybe has a touch more angle in her hind legs but really similar !! Will be interesting to see what you find out.

Very humbling to be in a position to help, thanks for bringing this to my attention.

Fab update, you are making so much progress :) I bet the horses loved that too.

OMFC how much ? per WEEK ?

No criticism from me either, you've acknowledged that you weren't really "with" her on the clip, I'm sure you have addressed that, and I love the partnership you have with her now. Onwards and upwards and a great idea for a thread.

Thanks I had forgotten my bin and I have no such excuse !

FF, Out of interest, was this your farrier's suggestion or vets? I ask because it might suit my horse but farrier reluctant because of the additional weight on front feet argument, which I understand. But if you boot in front to compensate that might be a good compromise.

Aaah blesssss

Best time to laser them off is autumn after flies so no hurry to ask vets but they look very similar to my WB's sarcoids. Like others have said, do what you can before then to see if anything helps but then lasering is a good option but £££ and insurance will exclude all skin complaints after...

Well done you both really deserve it ! Chuffed to bits all your hard work is paying off. Onwards and upwards!

Have written for judges where this is the case, it's down to the judge to be subjective and fair to all, a lot of the time the judges are not declared ahead of time anyway so it's certainly not down to you to find out before you enter.

Agree with the above - obese underworked horses etc. add into the mix a wet spring (remember ?) then a hot spell and unprecedented grass growth, many would suggest climate change being responsible and you have the perfect storm.

I have used Giffgaff and EE but now with Lyca, all found from here https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/cheap-mobile-finder/sim-only/. Obviously you have to check for signal strength but they've all worked in my Reolink.

One option that might be more affordable is Catastrophe cover. I have taken this out as my mare has so many exclusions and the premiums were extortionate but you have to be able to cover non-external injury type vets fees yourself.
