    Help improve lost topline

    I think that raised trot poles will be harder than canter ones as they really have push more and work for it. I will go back to the pessoa and give it a try, thanks

    Help improve lost topline

    Very doubtful it's cushings as she's only 11 and there are no other symptoms. She does also have regular visits from physio and she doesn't think anything metabolic is wrong with her.

    Help improve lost topline

    Last winter my event mare wintered out due to personal illness. She is a good doer and for all but the last fortnight she did very well. However in the last fortnight she did suddenly loose a lot of topline. Even though this is now a year on she has still not got 100% of what she had. Previously...

    Would you buy a weaver?

    On a good note to weavers and cribbers, because of all the extra 'exercise' they do they are always soft over the neck and good in the rein! I have never ridden one that wasn't easy to get in an outline. This should outway the weaving if the horse is good enough.
