The questionnaire is now closed after receiving 600 replies. Thanks very much to everyone who completed it. I'm now into the long task of entering my data so that I can then analyse it. Thanks again, I couldnt have done it without you all. Jess

Thankyou very much everyone. Survey is now closed and I am beginning to process the data, thanks very much. Jess

Thank you all for doing it! If you want to fill out more than once for different horses then that would be great, if not then thanks for taking the time to do if for one! Jess

Sorry to anyone who has already filled it in, and thank you for taking the time to do it! But I still need more responses... please fill it in if you havn't yet or post it on your wall or friends walls with horses! Would be much appreciated. If you live in the UK, are over 18 and own a...

5?! Excellent, thanks so much! I still need some more responses so please please try to fill it in all horsey people!! Thank you! Jess

I agree with the suggestion of putting the horse in its place when it tries to dominate you but wouldnt agree with you doing this yourself... come on guys, you cant advise an inexperienced person to walk into a field and start using a whip or body language to control a horse, she'll get...

How frustrating for you. I think some of the responses I would tend to agree with... if the horse isnt making you happy, then it might be best to bite the bullet and find something that suits you better. You admitted that you can be a bit nervous, as we all can, and it sounds like your head...

Thank you all for doing it, especially for persisting when you werent sure of a question, I really appreciate it. Ha, you are all correct, designing it has been very tricky and I tried to give as many options as possible so everyone had the chance to best represent their own circumstances...

I am so glad the response has continued to be so good today! I was nervous it may just be first day success and I wouldnt get any responses - thank you all so much for filling it in! Let's keep it going - pass the link around! Thanks Jess

Thanks everyone, really appreciate it! Sorry about the not having a 24hrs option but if you encounter this probelm then please tick 12+ hours and select "no" for does your horse spend any time in the stable and then I will be able to decipher that he/she is out all the time. And add it into...

Oh wow! Thank you! Thanks again to everyone, I'm so pleased with the responses - you have all been so helpful so far! Please pass on the word and help me towards my goal! Jess

The idea of including the shelter in the fields is a good one (thank you!) and I will certainly include that in my discussion and a suggestion for further research. Any extra info and suggestions are welcome and appreciated! I agree turning horses out is a delicate issue on which lots of...

Thank you guys. I am so passionate about the topic, I think its crazy that there is no information on what current practices are in the industry relating to turn out and I am so excited to collect this information. Thanks again for participating, I really appreciate it.

You are all brilliant, thanks so much for helping out, keep it up! Sorry if there was some confusion about some questions, I appreciate the question relating to hours of turn out is a bit confusing, sorry about that. I do state to tick "not applicable" or similar to prevent the system...

Thank you! All responses are appreciated and I can post a summary on this thread when Ive finished collecting results so you can all see :)
