    Very standard to give Previcox to horses in Canada (at least where I was in Ontario)

    What rugs do I actually need?

    I have - all with a detachable hood apart from the fleece: Fleece (obviously not for turnout) 50g (0g are pretty useless for me tbh: i find 0g will 'sweat' on the inside when it is rainy but having a bit of fill prevents this) 100g 220g Seems to capture all of our use cases here

    Manners when feeding

    Mine makes faces and flaps his lips when it is dinner time and throws his head around at the same time. I make him back up (requires a bit of pressure) and he does and waits for me to put his feed down before digging in. Feed needs to be put well inside the stable otherwise he spills it over...

    Molasses free hand held treats?

    Was thinking of trying this but.....seeing how hard it seems to be to chunk them....maybe using a single brick would work tbh to protect my fingers 🤔

    Molasses free hand held treats?

    I do use the global herbs generally (as well as carrots) but they are too small - horse tries to eat my hand already with them...not purposely but would rather not chance my fingers being chomped. Spillers does have molasses and Hilton herbs has alfalfa. 2 things he cant have plus they are also...

    Molasses free hand held treats?

    Does anyone have any that they can recommend? I have seen horselyx comes in a small tub but I think they are sugar ladden which is a hard no. Can't use carrots or any other smaller treats as horse cheats on his stretches so this way I can keep him entertained to either hold the stretch and/or...

    Completely lost motivation to ride

    I have lost motivation tbh. I thought it was just me but speaking to people more generally, it feels we are all feeling similarly. Over the weekend I found it excruciatingly difficult to motivate myself to get to nornal gym classes let alone the yard. I only went last night because a horse I...

    Was your second horse like the first?

    My horse's half brother out of the same sire was a mirror image of mine including temperment. It was insane. Outside of that, they are all different

    I think wet/dry cycles tend to bring on more abscesses. At least that has been my experience. It has just been wet....no sign of dry in sight atm either 😭😭😭

    Anyone else really struggling?

    Durasole is also amazing. Have had more luck with Durasole than hoof armour and is not as finicky. Also Keratex hoof gel can be used everywhere I believe (havent used it in a while so do correct me if I am wrong. Keratex hoof hardener - a different product - cannot be used on the frogs) to help...

    Anyone else really struggling?

    I went home during the first covid lockdown so was still very wintry and -10° temps back home. My coat that I brought felt perfectly fine in -10° but does not feel warm enough here at 3-5° here Talking to my mom just now and she has said the last few weeks have been cloudy and bitterly cold...
