Thanks for the messages so far. If it helps Harvey is 16.1hh bay TB type possibly cross WB. Was at Classic Dressage for a while. Came to Emma from Essex as far as I can tell from his passport. All help in putting the pieces from the puzzle together much appreciated. Thanks!!

Hi All I am trying to contact the user of this forum with name Harveysmum. I am guessing that her real name is Emma and I believe she is from Oxfordshire. I now own Harvey and would love to get in touch with her. I have PM'd her but not sure that she uses the site much anymore. Any help...

Guess who Ca?? Sorry about Archie.....could it be a Suspensory problem, his lameness sounds very similar to Tiggers (been following your threads). Tig had to go in for xrays and nerve blocks to get this diagnosis. Hopefully whatever it is he will come good sooner rather than later. Will keep...

Yes....but.....the coloured and cheaper ones tend to only have 600d outer which makes them less waterproof, Ok in a light shower but not in persistant rain, if you go for the navy version they have 1200d outer and are much better but a bit more money...still good value though I think.

The brand the yard is using is Bliss (rape straw). My friends used to use easibed - pricey I think...

Apparentely Rape Straw is very good for managing a bed as you want to. It doesn't move very much so the wet stays in place. It is not like straw as we no it - finely chopped, it's dust free etc. Might be worth investigating. I haven;t used it personally but a few people on my yard are trying it.

Not posted very much on here am pretty new to all of this but my god does your situation remind me of a what I put up with for years (up until Oct last year) When I eventually moved it was like breath of fresh air.... I used to go home from the yard 2-3 x a week in tears because of YO (a...

He's 11. Low mileage though. Know's his job but his previous owner was a bit scared of him so has been allowed to get away with a few naughty things - spooking being one of them. Am hoping that as we become a team and he learns to trust me it will fade away... will see if I can post a...

Not tonight - he hasn't had a day off since he arrived and he is having his back checked today (just an MOT no problems I don;t think) so he will need a days rest. Not sore after the falls they were quite gentle as far as falls go!!! So far have hacked in company over bridges and had long...

I got one two weeks ago this Saturday. 16.1 bay sports horse, not done much for a while but has potential. Have done a reasonable amount so far but feeling a bit wobbly after a couple of silly silly falls (normally stick like glue!). I am sure it is just teething problems, him testing me...

Hi My first ever post!!!! Has anyone else just got a new horse? How's it going?
