    Galloping towards people/dogs

    Unfortunately, I've witnessed this type of riding at Hayling Beach, where there's already a loud voice to get horses banned. We took the dogs there last summer and there were lots of horses on the beach, we kept the dogs on leads whenever we were passing a group of them. But then a group of...

    Sec b - how much weight

    I've got a Sec B, she's 13.2hh but she's got legs like sticks, so from that perspective I wouldn't ride her, I only long rein her. I'm 5'4" and 8 stone, but still feel too big for her stick legs :)

    Would this concern you?

    He's a cold blooded horse, from native UK stock, so he is meant to have small/closed nostrils because of the cold climate. I can assure you his nostrils are absolutely fine :)

    Low sugar licks/blocks

    Yes, Horselyx are quite bad. I wouldn't give it adlib to my EMS pony. However, I'm following this thread with interest, as mine also like licks, but they must be low sugar, so hoping, like you, that someone can suggest one :)

    Strange behaviour, vet stumped

    I had this with one of mine. He had a recurring Herpes virus and did this when he was under the weather or in discomfort. Like you, I thought it was colic, the vet even did a peritoneal tap to check for peritonitis, but it was all clear. Nothing could be done, just some pain killers when he was...

    When old horses stop lying down..

    I agree entirely. My horse owning vet, who was very experienced, told me that not being able to get up from laying down is a big red flag! Other red flags she quoted as: Being able to have the feet attended to by the farrier without causing pain (not short term obviously) Not being able to...

    Faecal Water Management with EMS Horse

    My EMS had this for the first time this year. I contacted Trinity Consultants and they put her on L94 and their Gut balancer (can't remember what is was called). But within 48hrs of having the L94 her stools were fine, the faecal water had stopped. However, within 48hrs of stopping it, it came...
