    Boggle- USA bound!

    I have a 19 year old Morgan in Australia. I've had him from a just started 3 year old. He has always been a really sensible horse. I am an older rider (nearly 70) he certainly looks after me out on the trail. BUT, he has also done 80 Eventing with my Granddaugter and won a number of rugs...

    Yes, I stayed there last year, worst experience I've ever had. I was literally in the atic, the window didn't shut, the room was dirty - think toothpaste rings in the bathroom, etc. when I complained I was accused of trying to get a free holiday !! the only positive was it is walking distance...

    Saracen Shape-Up and EMS horses

    Mine is on a very small dose of Ertugliflozin daily which really helps keep his weight stable and due to other health issues (esophagus diverticulum) he can't have any hay at all so has to graze, also has 4 small hard feeds of very low starch/suger pellets and lucerne chaff spread throughout the...

    Sverigegrepen Muck Fork

    Thanks for all the replies, GemmaRuby, Kerry Halliday does not answer her phone, emails or messenger so I can only presume she is no longer in business. Herbies told me it is the length of the fork which is ergonomic (which is why I want one) which is the issue. They suggested approaching a...

    Sverigegrepen Muck Fork

    Does anyone know where I can buy one of these in Australia? I had a quote from Herbies Yard Supplies in the UK for 2 to be posted and the post alone was 250 GBP. Which is obviously not doable. I would really like one. Any ideas?

    Boggle- USA bound!

    Hi, yes I have, I did Perth (Aus) to Sydney and then to LA and onto Tampa and return a couple of years ago, and agree, I found it quite unsettling as I am not a fan of the ocean. I have also just recently done a return trip from Aus to UK for the Burghley Horse Trials, I was offered the option...

    My 19 year old Morgan has EMS diagnosed after a laminitic episode a few years ago and his Cushings test is on the high side of normal. He was put on a track system (at home) and lost the required amount of weight and 7 months ago we started ertugliflozin, the base line before treatment but...
