Hi, My horse had a tendon injury almost 10 years ago now, when I got him. He was a point to pointer and came to me with the injury. He is 17.2 and chestnut, so the thought of containing him in a small area was not appealling!! He was on box rest, then turned out in a small yard, before...

Hi all, I have had the luxuary at my parents of having my horse literally at the back door (I can see his stable from the kitchen window!) and also the field they run in is infront of the conservatory! However I have now moved about 2 hours away. I have been living here for sometime now...

Hi All, I bought a side saddle in the hope that I could have it fixed up and ride in it! It did not have a makers mark on it, but my saddler has taken it to pieces to re-stich the underneath and there is a label showing 'Army and Navy Co-Operative 19.5/ 12'. I was wondering if anyone knew...
