Littlelegs,Poor companion pony. If its frequently had to live in solitude when & if it fits in with your arrangements its hardly suprising its got overly attached to current horse, & stresses when you remove it.
Thats a bit unfair, hes been on his own twice in 4 yrs so its hardly frequently...
Tilda,
"Maybe I am asking a lot but my definition of a companion pony is one that is happy by itself for a short while so you are able to exercise the horse it is companion to. Why do you have this particular pony as companion is it an old outgrown/ retired pony or is it for your daughter? I...
I have a welsh d on loan and knew she could be a bit nappy when I tried her where she would just stop and then try and turn round. This wasnt really an issue as i got her through it. I have ridden her out from home and although she was a bit fresh she only tried to stop a couple of times but was...

scarymare,
I dont see a problem why you cant just leave them on grass for 2 days, they arent going to starve and like you said they are fat. Its not as if they are stood on bare soil, they still have grass to eat. My 2 horses only get hay out if its frosty. Yes the grass has stopped growing...

My pony eats anything and everything and because he is a native he has to be on a diet. He is on rubber mas with a tiny sprinkling of shavings ( 2 roundscoop fulls ) to soak up some urine and a tiny bit of shredded paper but he usually eats that and that is his lot im afraid. What is left is...
How short are you? Im 5'2" and struggle as I have short skinny legs. I cant wear jods at all and always use breeches. I have a couple of pairs of HY performance breeches with suede/ leather seat. They stop over a hands width above my ankle bones. They are generous sizes tho, I got a 26" waist...
