Can I revive as well, looking for recommendations for harness for a blue heeler? A small girly one lol! She isn't a strong puller, but hopefully will pull more when in a proper harness. To run 5k's and 10k's. Thanks!
My old GDS was prone to pancreatitis and could eat chicken with rice, raw defrosted frozen trip mince, Chappie (occasionally), and ad-lib GSD royal canine dry food (which is not well rated, but she seemed to do OK on it in conjunction with the rest). She could NOT have any dairy (shame as she...
Mine has diagnosed with bone spavin at around 8yo, had Adequan IM injections and came sound. A year or so later had another course when he felt stiff in the opposite hind. He continued to do riding club stuff, up to 90cm, but I never pushed him too hard, never lunged or did too much circling...
Why did I open this...I just had to browse - now you need to explain to me why I don't need this one...

It depends what bone imagine, but my horse fractured his tiba (kick injury - through under his belly and impact to his inner thigh basically - ouch!). He was cross tied in horsepital for 3 months, box rest with hand walking for 3 months, small paddock turnout for a month or so, then gradually...
£55 and more if delivered here! Previous years £35 delivered (very locally). Changed to small bale hay and bagged haylage as a result as less wastage keeping costs down.
We did that - had a very whizzy lead rein pony, put him on loan, and got an ancient schoolmistress on loan to start off leadrein. Then whizzy pony loaners wanted to keep him a while longer, so we got their daughter's first ridden, 1 step up from ancient schoolmistress who we passed on to...
I have always fancied giving dressage to music a go, just so I could ride to Nelly the Elephant (preferably the Toy Doll's version), on my rather clumbersome Clydesdale cross. The fast bits would suit his battle charge canter; the slow bits, his rhythmical trot. He even has an elephant outfit...
Me neither - there aren't very many with tails here, never mind stumpy tailed! I just read about them when researching the breed before getting ours. They are a separate breed - stumpy tailed ACD - but originating from same foundation stock. Few differences in colour and conformation standard...
It's Australian Cattle Dogs that can come in 'stumpy tailed' versions, and I have never heard of the full tailed ones being docked here or in Aus (maybe a US thing?). Not Australian Shepherds. I have an ACD (blue heeler), and could do with a few 1000's of acres and some cows to keep her...
I work full time, have no arena, lights or even a field I can ride in, so for me having someone to help out over the winter, exercising my horse 2 or 3 weekdays, is a life saver and allows me to hunt at weekends. I'm happy to keep the arrangement over summer and get a couple of nights off a...
