    :( any ideas? Vet will be called next week

    Hi. My Welsh Cob use to do exactly the same thing. Have you had a back x-ray done yet? My mare was diagnosed with kissing spine. Treated with the ligament snip operation and rehab. It did help, but would still occur over time. Having Rob Jackson the horseback vet treat her made a massive...

    Horses & Mortgages

    Hi All. My partner and I are preparing to start applying for a mortgage. I was speaking to a colleague and she said to not tell them that I own a horse. Does owning a horse cause problems when applying for mortgages? I can’t see how I can hide the horse, as the part livery, insurance all...

    Long lines

    Hi there, I'm looking to buy a pair of lunge lines for long reining that don't have a loop handle at the end. All the ones i've seen so far on line have the loop. Can anyone recommend any? Many thanks!

    washing horses mane in winter

    I do this A LOT! I can't stand muddy manes. I make a bucket of warm water and use a flannel to dampen the mane in sections. I put very small amounts of shampoo on the flannel and rub into the mane. Use the least amount of shampoo you can get away with, building it up slowly, as the more you...

    Best full neck rugs for long manes.

    I've found the shires tempest combos don't do too much damage. They tend to thin the mane a bit rather than rub out chunks. In my experience, combo rugs without a seam where the neck attaches work best.
