Hi. Have sent you a PM.

Thank you. I think my friend thought this a possibility and the vet has taken a blood test today.

Thank you. Much appreciated. I believe the vet has gone today for a blood test and an ECG will follow.

My friend's horse suffered what appeared to be an epileptic fit type seizure yesterday. It went down in the stable and legs started cycling, teeth clenched. When back on feet he began frantically weaving and was then exhausted and not eating much. Has since seemed to have made a full recovery...

That's a good idea. I don't know why that didn't occur to me. Feel a bit stupid now as I guess that's the most obvious and easiest way to find out. Thank you for suggesting it.

Thank you for that. No, sadly they're not. I saw those and mine have got mock laces on the front.They're made in Brazil and have AMAZONAS Super Comfort on the heel as well as Just Togs rubber label moulded onto the rubber sole.

I'm just wondering if anyone has got or ever had Just Togs Amazonas long riding boots and if so whether they know for sure if they are leather or not. I have just acquired a pair believing them to be leather but it doesn't actually specify anywhere on them that they are. One of them needs a new...

Would Robertsbridge be too far for you?

I was really interested to read of your experience as I recently bought some and used it on my gypsy cob who was suffering dreadfully with mites and constantly stamping and gnawing to the point of having really bad sores. (I'd used frontline and had the vet inject him but no longterm relief) The...

Thank you for responding. No pix at the moment and don't know where in Ospringe. Just know the passport says he's from Ireland.

My friend has just purchased a horse from E. Anglia but 2 or 3 years ago it was in Kent and It would be really helpful if we could find out as much about him as possible( good or bad) so if anyone has come across him in the past it would be great to hear from you. His name is Benetton and he's a...

Does anyone know of a chestnut Dutch warmblood (gelderlander) who joined the horses there about 8 years ago.He was known as Rudi in his pre Writtle days (official name Daveroodnoot) and became known as Dave by the students. I would love to hear any news of him.

Thank you for that suggestion.That sounds much more sensible. I'm a bit of an amateur when it comes to using the forum!

Are there any past or present students of Writtle College who know a chestnut dutch warmblood (gelderlander) who came to the college about 8 years ago.His name is Daveroodnoot but was always known as Rudi prior to arriving at Writtle where he became known as Dave. I would love to hear from...

I am considering part/full loan of one of mine but I would want him to stay full livery at the yard that I am at which is at Robertsbridge and I would think that is too far from your area. He's a 15.2 Irish cob gelding (coloured) and I've had him 5 years (he's now 15).He's bombproof but with the...
