Took me 18 months. I spent every day with her but she didn't do anything for me. There was nothing I liked about her. I bought her for my daughter but with me to share her. After 18 months I started riding her and I think that is when we started to gel. That was 19 years ago and she is my world.

I sort of failed to mention that only one of mine gets rugged but I have the rugs just incase. Although I am lucky as 3 do take the same size rugs

Glad its not just me then. One of the rugs in my garage I don't even remember having

All winter I've been moaning about not having enough rugs for our 4. I was aware that there were a couple of rugs in my garage waiting to be repaired or reproofed. So today I braved the garage or should that be the overflow tack room. Well there was a huge pile of rugs. So far I have packed up 8...

Thank you everyone for your replies. Its reassuring too know that I'm doing it right

They are lovely saddles, very well made and comfy. Not sure where you are based. I have one thats currently advertised for sale if you just wanted to have a look a it and see what they look like etc.

Thanks, thats more than I thought. Would you vary the price depending on what they were going to do with the horse. Just hacking and schooling or taking her out jumping and cross country etc.

Just wondering what people charge or pay to share a horse. I've never shared one of my herd before only loaned but considering sharing one of the girls. It would be up to 5 days a week for the right person if they wanted.

My daughters welsh d x cob has been feed pink mash for the last two years and we would never feed him anything else. He was very difficult to get weight on even though he was only 6, since feeding pink mash he gained weight whilst still staying sane.

Hi, He has had everything checked and no reason has been found for it, we just except its just him which is why we are looking in a heat or massage pad to see if that would help

Hi, he gets quite tense when ridden and tacking up so we would like to use it before being ridden to help relax his muscles and him
