    PTS

    If it helps you in anyway regarding the passport being stamped, my vet informed me at the last visit that they were having to clamp down on that particular part of the passport being signed. This is orders coming from above so I was told. I found out I had missed filling in that part for one of...

    My 1st dog, will living in a flat be ok?

    I'm moving out soon in to my own flat and I would really like to get a dog to keep me company. I'm buying a large 1 bed ground floor flat and am considering a small, poss terrier/JR type. Would this living space be too small? During the day it would come to the horses (I have my own private...

    Equiband - anyone use?

    I recently bought the Pro Core Trainer by Thermatex. I'm very pleased with how my horse is responding to this, the belly strap does make a difference to him and it's cheaper than Equiband. For those who possess sewing skills, I don't, you could easily make your own version.

    Sore barefoot horse-bedding?

    What about Flax? Mole Valley stock one called Hippofan that I've got one of mine on it as I needed something as dry as possible for his thrush. It doesn't seem to compress in his feet and is keeping them lovely and dry.

    Golden button challenge

    Whether they loved it or not, to see that several horses died makes uncomfortable reading for me.

    Amazingly embarrasing showjumping fails? make me feel better !

    The horse I'd been jumping Foxhunter on had had some time of due to an abcess. Took her to an unaffiliated show to let her blow the cobwebs out and promptly got jumped and dumped at fence 3 in an 85cm class. Walked out the ring to the sound of my farrier wetting himself laughing. And, although...

    Advice What Do You Think Happened

    No help I'm afraid but I had a horse collapse in the car park at the vets. She'd been xrayed and we were just about to load up to go home. Everyone who saw it happen, including the vet nurse, thought she was having a heart attack. Her back end went and the rest followed. However she stood up...

    A Badminton GR vs Bramham pondering.

    Thank you to everyone who's replied. I've found all the opinions really insightful and thought provoking. I don't event as I'm not brave enough so was being a touch ignorant comparing the GR coffin to Bramham. To my spectators eye the 2 obstacles were similar, but thank you for explaining it...

    AWOL farrier

    There's no need to take offence and I apologise if you've taken it that way but I meant it in a nice way to you because I felt sorry for the guy that there were people poking holes in him on there when he had a problem. And yes I did notice the post has gone as FB can be so catty. Apologies...
