Fynalite multi-muckas are brilliant on straw

IF worded correctly it could be a massive positive to preventing and resolving horse welfare issues It could also offer a legal standard of horse care that if failed could be classed as breaking the law, so it would make it easier to be able to remove the horse and prosecute the owner

My girl def believes she should always have my sole attention, if I'm nattering to a fellow human she starts waving a front leg at me, if I don't stop chatting she starts tapping me with her toe. She also tries to load herself into any open trailer/box, if she ever got loose at a show I'd have...

Heck yeah! :D if it had the word Horse on the label it would be x10 the price :rolleyes:

Was going to say the same thing! :D have tried all sorts of products, but now stick to this as it has the best results

Lovely company, one of their shops isn't far from our yard. Everyone I've spoke to have been very helpful and they do some unusual products too that I've not seen elsewhere Discount code; TT10

Not something I would consider, can't see what's stopping the horse getting a shock, bolting the wrong direction, then being constantly shocked and panicked until it's found?

Reckon if you can quickly build up a regular client list then it can work well. However know a few people who have done this and found themselves dealing with stables that haven't been mucked out properly for months/fields full of poo/unkept horses etc, all of which was expected to be at a good...

stockinjur do a good range

Absolutely neither your or your horses fault, also if you were to pay anything towards the vet bill it could be seen as you accepting liability If an owner brings a dog to the yard it's at their own risk and is their responsibility at all times

Cut a plastic bottle in half, turn the top part over to make a funnel, part fill base with a sweet smelling liquid, fruit juice/cider/lager etc works well and string it up somewhere out of reach, amazing how many flies it catches

Agree with the comments above and would say if you're not happy then 100% move Sometimes as liveries, it takes moving to a good yard, to actually realise how many issues we've put up with at a bad one

Headland Polo is my go to, pretty much kills off everything except grass

If I bought a horse that was then deemed unrideable then they're with me for life whatever, however I wouldn't knowingly take on an unrideable horse to be kept at livery, I would consider it if I had my own land and was looking for a compainion
