Hi all The yard im at is over run with rats just wondered if there being so many around if it could effect my horse especially as i keep finding them at the bottom of his water bucket :-S Thanks :-)

Hi all! Went to look at an ex-race horse today she was fine in every way except a 'Blemish on one of her fetlocks'. He told me she was sound and had raced and hunted on it and has been fine. It happened when she was a youngster and is about an inch long and just looks like an old scar, shes very...

:-) no my boy isnt doing anything at the moment apart from playing with a few feild mates thanks jasmine

Yep he has sweaty armpits, think your right his just getting too hot! should i clip him or just leave him as he is until his back into work? everyone else at the stables has theres clipped :-S thanks for your reply :-) x

Recently i have noticed sweat patches on my boy. His been out of work for about a month now and hasnt been clipped. It seems to be happening when his lying down. Could this be he is too hot in his stable or something worth havding a chat to the vet about? Thanks

Was just wondering what people thought of 'Bitless Bridles'??? Does it make the horse harder to control?

Thanks very much for the replys i will have a look into all the vets :-) The time i had 'H & J' out the girl who treated my boy was very young, just left vet college :-S

Toy shopping for the pup! When we were getting ours by the time she arrived she had every toy you could think off in her toy box! Then she arrived, didnt play with any of hers only the big toys and my other dog destroyed all the puppy toys! lol But i shall do it all again when we get our next...

One of my dogs were like that, all of my dogs got the hang of using the garden really quick (about 1-2 months, but im with mine almost 24/7) except one of my bitches it took her about a year to get the hang of it. I used to get up real early let her out when she went she would get a treat and...

Hi all, anyone know of good vets in essex? Have used 'House & Jackson' before wanted to know what people thought of them and if people could suggest better. Thanks :-)

Thanks all for your replys i had him vetted and he was fine the only thing was that when the vet pressed his stomach and sides he jumped put his ears back and tried to get the vet, so the vet carried on and told us its not pain he is feeling, she thinks his had something bad done to him in the...

My boy used to do something like that but it was more of a screaming bark lol so i contacted the breeder and found out his father does it to so he has to sleep with a big teddy or with there bitches. It turned out to be separation anxiety. But my boy wouldnt settle for toys he had to have us...

My dog used to do that but he started when we bought a bitch into the house . . . i found it pretty hard catching him in the act as he would do it when know one was around. So i used to buy olbas oil mix it with water and spray it where he used to do it. He did stop weeing there but started...

Hi all As you all probably know im pretty new to owning a pony, but recently my boy has decided he hates to be groomed. If i go anywhere near him with any piece of grooming equipment he refuses to keep still along with digging at the floor and heavy breathing. Has anyone else had this...
