    New share... Difficult pony

    Another one here thinking this just isn't the horse for you, I'm afraid.

    Massively regret getting a horse, any advice?

    Definitely agree with this - also, if you were to decide to keep for the medium term, perhaps having a fixed point in the future to reassess the situation would be quite helpful in terms of making things feel less overwhelming?

    The house is so empty tonight

    So sorry for your loss - they can decline so quickly with kidney disease :(

    BHS introduces Equine Excellence Pathway

    Glad not just me then :) Still feel it'll be a while until I'm ready to take the exams having had a few years' break from riding, but nice to understand the system better.

    BHS introduces Equine Excellence Pathway

    Link not working unfortunately but found it here I think? http://www.malvernridingschool.co/0_0_0_0_501_798_csupload_44073732.png?u=3214508780 Definitely useful to compare though - having done that, the new system actually seems simpler - thank you :)

    BHS introduces Equine Excellence Pathway

    Thank you :) Now much less confused although really wonder how I managed to miss that when I was looking at their website after reading about the changes in H&H

    Who wants to join me on foal watch?

    Very glad to hear all went well - onwards and upwards (literally in Epic's case) :)

    BHS introduces Equine Excellence Pathway

    Intriguing but confusing is what I'd say as well - does anyone know if they've done a flowchart like they did with the old-style stages?

    European eventing squad announced - thoughts?

    Nice balanced team selection - another one here who has very much enjoyed watching Ros Canter at both the lower and higher levels

    The vet came today, and brought his dog, which did this...

    Think a quiet word with the vet on Monday is in order - really hope they can help your mare AND ensure she doesn't have to go through that again, as there's a big difference between a slightly different view on safety with dogs and blatant lack of common sense...

    Pet plan and vet history.

    Absolutely - if that measure was used I'm guessing insurance companies would very quickly go out of business, especially if they still declined insurance once back up to date AND for unrelated conditions.

    How do you pronounce...

    Another non-pronunciation yet equally irritating one is "off of" - as in "she fell off of her horse" - it isn't even easier to say than the grammatically correct alternative!

    Say hello to Stanley!

    Very very cute - and sounds like a lovely well-adjusted puppy :)

    Lovely foal - hope the transfusion goes well

    Hi

    Hi - I'm just getting back into riding after a two to three year break, although I've lurked here for quite a bit longer - looking forward to joining the conversations :)
