    Who turns out in the snow?

    My girl loves the snow. More so when it's nice and deep so she can eat it though!

    Horse has become really lazy

    My mare starts getting ring sour the minute she's uncomfortable with anything, but still hacks out like a happy champ. Typically it has been the saddle, but not always. I hope you manage to find the cause and get back to happy horse everywhere!

    Just random happiness at my ponies

    Long story short, my husband indulged my crazy last year when I went to my dream breeders farm and agreed I should buy a baby in utero as long as he could order Mc Donald's... Anyhow they're 95ish so they needed help from family to get videos but finally managed it! Meet Ronnie, Gummi bears new...

    Livery recommendations near Leamington Spa

    There is on in Ufton that might suit, behind the wedding barn. Wood farm is the name Sandra Haitt, you can find it on Facebook though no idea if there is availability etc but was a lovely yard when I was there.

    Yards and riding near Rugby

    I am in Southam/Napton there are quite a few barns in the Rugby area. The hacking where I am seems quite nice as well. When livery hunting I find more locations in Rugby easily found online than the warwick areas. I imagine a trip to tower farms in Rugby you'll find plenty of places to view from...

    Quarantine for horse import near Leamington/Southam

    Hello! I'm importing a horse and the transporter has said that I could have the quarantine done either in the US or here in the UK. I was wondering if anyone knew of any places local to me that would be suitable so that during the quarantine time I could do a bit extra to help it adjust to life...

    Loan Dilemma

    Oh dear :(. You are a very kind person. I don't think I am quite as kind. The only option I personally would be looking at is start the process of selling now with viewings to start on March as agreed upon.

    Long reining

    I've been having in hand lessons with a gentleman named Derek Clark - I found him on http://www.classicalriding.co.uk/ . It's been wonderful for helping Gummi Bear and I get a nice feel in the bridle (still rather green at it only been at it a couple months). We absolutely love it, and it has...

    Buying a horse

    Definitely agree with everything said already. Every horse is an individual - my Husband's first horse was a 6 year old TB but a total dope on a rope kind of guy that could have easily been ruled out on breed or age (Sadly couldn't come with us when we moved as he wasn't the most stoic in cold...

    Ideal country to live in to have a horsey rural life?

    Its definitely easy to find inexpensive land in the US, and horse care overall isn't too dissimilar in most places. The trick is finding the right area that you fit in and hope it's also an area that is on the inexpensive list. I love digging through landandfarm.com for cheap land in the states...
