    Decision day....

    So I went with my riding instructor today to try my possible new horse for the third time. It went great he was an angel and she really liked him and after jumping him we hacked him out and was as chilled out as anything past all kinds of spooky things. I would of course get him fully vetted...

    Is this a big deal?

    Thank you everyone for your advice, it's really made me have a good hard think about this horse. The uninsurable part is a big worry. I have just arranged to have my instructor view him with me next week. So I am also waiting for her opinion and verdict. I understand that the owners will play...

    Is this a big deal?

    Would want to do school, hacking and riding club events. The asking price is £3500 ono. In every other way he's a little star, i didn't realise not being allowed on straw is such a big deal!

    Is this a big deal?

    I think ive confused myself now. Reading online - nose nets are used for head shaking - so am i correct in thinking that without the nose net, his allergies would flare up causing him to head shake in irritation? Is there any way a vetting could determine how severe his RAO is? As reading...

    Is this a big deal?

    He's not kept on straw, he is mainly out but when in stable is kept on shavings or pelleted sawdust. Nose net is only needed very occassionally apparently. :( gutted now.

    Is this a big deal?

    Hello, Quick query is it a big deal if a horse coughs on straw bedding and wears a nose net in bright sunlight when hacking to make him more comfortable? Obvious thing is to avoid straw bedding, but it is just an allergy? or something to be weary of?

    Am I going to know when it's the right time? :(

    Poor Chloe! Im so sorry you are going through this - such a sad situation. She is a lucky dog to be loved so much. If the steroids are so great with the itching why don't you try some dog nappies to help her stay dry when shes incontinent then at least she won't wet her bed and have to sleep...

    RIP Mutley and White Socks

    My dad is currently working on designing a plant in Kazakstan. The location has lots of wild dogs, all of which are tame and friendly. Each complex has its own pack of dogs which they take care of. The workers work alternative 4 week shifts and they swap duties of feeding, watering and playing...
