Thank you so much. Ordered a pair!

Hi all, I have had Pikeur recommended to me, but there are so many 'types'! I would like high waisted, full seat. There are some that have McCrown? Fabric. Help!

Hi all, As the title says, I am looking for breeches that are suitable for these warmer days. I do have a few 'must haves' though. They must be full seated and grippy, not just look pretty full seat. I would like high waisted to help hold in the muffin top and not scratchy Velcro ankle bits! (...

I bought a 6.5" 'Myler style bit from Horsemanship Saddlery Uk. They were really good and my horse loves it better than his Neule schule.

I had excellent results with spirulina (sp?), which I think is very similar to Equitop stuff. I used to order it from Ebay,

Thank you all for your replies. I hadn't realised that only half my reply had posted and didn't make sense at all- sorry. Update on cob. He is much better already! I can still see the tendon pinging but he doesn't have a huge reaction anymore. He is much better in the morning after being in at...

Thank you so much for replying! I was getting worried as there had been lots of views, but no responses! Yes, the tendon has slipped off the hock and he is horribly lame, although he seems little better walking forwards than he was on Friday. Your story has given me so much hope. My cob is a...

Hello everyone, On Friday, my beloved cob was diagnosed by the vet with a slipped flexor tendon. No idea how this could have happened, but he has had on and off lameness for about 3 months. Vet did come out and thought it was a soft tissue injury, but on Friday he was hopping lame on his one...

I realise this could be a ' how long is a piece of string' question, but my horse has a warm, swollen hock. I had the vet out today and they feel that it is not infection or a kerb, but an injury- soft tissue. So they have advised cold hosing twice a day and some bute. Horse also had an anti...

The hereditary skin condition I was thinking of affects Quarter horse, so it can't be that. Probably a reaction to the spray. X

Hi there, what breed is your horse? The reason I ask is there is a hereditary skin condition that some breeds can have.

My horses has runny eyes at this time of year. I had the vet a couple of years ago about it and it was decided that for them, it was fly irritation and bright sunlight. They always wear fly masks during the day, not the fringe type but ones with UV protection and this has helped hugely. If I...

My cob has this all over his body. When his summer coat first comes through, it is only in tiny patches, but as the summer progresses, so does the pattern. I have groomed the coat in the direction it is meant to go, but it just goes how it wants to go straight away!

Sorry I haven't replied sooner. Thank you so much for your replies. I will try Vikki Fear.

Hi all, As the title says really! I am trying to find a good barefoot trimmer/ equine podiatrist in Worcestershire area. My horses have transitioned to barefoot but I need some advice. Thanks
