    Highland Ponies

    My beloved has just bought a 2yo Highland x TB gelding - very exciting! Partner has been learning to ride on my old Welshie for the last couple of years, this will be his first "big" horse, but he fell in love with ponies, so awesome compromise. Whisk will be allowed to grow for another year at...

    A little thing I wrote about sheath cleaning...

    Vets' opinions tend to differ on this subject... My vet friends have no issue with using lube. In my experience, water-based lube works really well, because it doesn't mess around with the flora or natural balance at all. My basic guide is - if you wouldn't use it on your own ladyparts, don't...

    Gawd, I just wear trackie pants most times I ride! Jods are only when I'm dressing up!

    Spookers

    I'm a big fan of ignoring spooks too - prevention is good, but if it happens, don't give them any encouragement, just carry on.

    Willy washing advice please!

    We're not talking buckets of lubricant - just enough to make it easier for the hand to go exploring. And these are water-based, PH neutral substances which are designed to be used, and left, on sensitive skin. I have given this a lot of thought, and done a lot of reading. I won't use baby oil...

    Spookers

    I find that my eejit TB spooks less if I keep his mind busy - give him a job to do the whole time, instead of just sitting there letting him make his own fun... and some horses do quite enjoy giving themselves (and you!) a good scare, they really look out for things to be terrified of.

    Mean nicknames for your horse

    My beloved Darcy's main alias is the Crocopony - he is rather fond of using his teeth. He is also called, on a regular basis: Doofus Dingbat D*ckhead Princess Fatty Bloody Eejit Monster etc etc.

    I own a odd horse...what weirdo things do your do?

    My beloved Crocopony likes to make oogie-boogie faces over the fence - puts a lot of effort into twisting his head around, pinning his ears and snapping his teeth - with intervals to stop and look terribly pleased - then back to monster faces. He especially likes to play this game with my human...

    My horse is phobic about yards

    My gorgeous TB Darcy is a rescue. He was kept by himself in a small yard (maybe 6x10m) from weanling to 6 years old, ungelded, mostly unhandled, and odds are good occasionally thrashed by his senile old owner. I adopted him (from a horse rescue group) 3 months after he was...

    Excessive Smega Production - Causes?

    I suspect he has something really not right going on his gut, and the sheath is secondary to that. Could you put him on a course of ulcer treatment, just to see if there's any improvement at all?

    Excessive Smega Production - Causes?

    It's my secret identity :) I have a "real job" during the week, and they don't know about my weekend job! Have you had any natural-therapy types look at him? We have a marvellous equine acupuncturist/Chinese herbal dude over here, who's done wonders with horses with all sorts of problems...
