I pay £120 a pair, but they are worth every penny, my mare is now in the muddy fields in the day in them and they last 6 weeks :)

Hi Ginnie My mare had this done around 6 years ago as she was very stallion like! I tried her for over 2 years on Regumate but we had to keep increasing the dosage and it didnt seem to be working at all in the end. She was absolutely obsessed with boys! I was also trying to back her at the...

Hello I use Sarah Matthews www.equinemassageberkshire.com on my mare She covers Berkshire and Surrey, and South of England :)

My mare is having her first summer with one and I know the guilty feeling! It does get easier though! She used to go mad having it on, now puts her nose down for it as she knows theres normally a goodie waiting in there. I have two, one which I have cut a bigger hole in for when the grass is...

I normally go and catch my girl, then take her over to where i have the muzzle and some treats then undo the headcollar and do it back up around her neck. Can you not bring him in anywhere to put it on? I wouldnt leave it on 24/7 personally as they start to rub, and cant groom others, etc

I undo my headcollar and do it up round the neck which gives a bit more control, once I have the strap over the neck you can just slide it along, does take a bit of practice! :):)

I started my mare with a muzzle a few months ago, she was not keen either! I broke her into gently, starting off with an hr and building it up to the 10 hrs a day she has it on now for. She still sulks when i put it on but as soon as she goes out the head goes down and she nibbles away. I did...

There is Chessington Equestrian centre, not sure what its like but it has a school, there is also Aprils livery yard and another one just past Chessington EC on the right. Wouldnt touch Barwell with a Bargepole!!

Small world, my foal was born at Pitchwood after my old boss bought the yard 10 years ago! :):)

I jet wash my outdoor rugs with a power washer then reproof them with a automatic spray bottle. I bought a massive jug of reproofer online last year and bought a automatic spray bottle and took 10 mins per rug, just had to wait for a nice sunny day! I think the reproof solution was around £20...

I definitely agree if its working then don't change it. My 25 yr old TB is a very good doer and has to be on restricted grazing in the summer and soaked hay. She just has Happy Hoof and Spiller Hi Fibre cubes My mare has Cushings so I cant feed veteran feeds as they tend to be high in starch...

Hello I put my mare Miami in foal when she was 16, 10 years ago and she took first time with no problems. She had previously played polo, show jumped, you name it but in the 4-5 years before had injury after injury which forced early retirement apart from a few plods out. She was my first...

I used a Monty Roberts Dually halter to break in my mare as she had lots of teeth problems and I didnt want to delay it any longer as she was a handful if you didnt keep her mind busy! She hacked out in it, and eventually I started jumping her in it and used it for roadwork etc, I cant fault...
