    Decent turnout rugs that don’t break the bank?

    Another mudrugs fan here. I also like ruggles and have used them a lot over the years, recently got one of their heavy horse cut ones, fits lovely!

    WWYD - Loan/Sell/Persevere/Give my head a wobble?

    Not much to offer besides wishing you and Dex well, and hoping you get to the bottom of it all! One of mine did similar around the same timeframe, and I got everything checked, even her ovaries! Got the all clear and got a young, kind lad to ride her for a few weeks and it ended up just being a...

    Techalogic DC-1 Hat Cam

    Yup, stopped using it and got a second hand Cambox camera. Didn't like the way it pulled on the side of my head, plus I was thought if I came off that it would get absolutely mullered or possibly cause injury to myself. I'd be totally down for one with a more slim profile, that sits...

    Easy-Net haynet review

    I had one of these from a good few years ago, and earlier this year I bought 4 new greedy feeder ones. I like them! Easy enough to fill (I just hold the loop in my hand and ram hay in with the other), more comfortable to carry over your shoulder than twine, and I find it easy to hang up but then...

    WWYD (yard move)

    I'd stick with your current yard. What's the point in moving somewhere closer just to get less turnout, soggy slippery clay soil, worse hacking, more cost for bedding and lessons etc? It's not worth shaving the time off your drive just to have a less enjoyable experience.

    Mud rugs

    Not had an issue with that personally, have used the 50g and 20g rugs with bellies on three different horses with no issue.

    HELP - Overweight Connie

    I wish more people understood this. I had complaints from other liveries earlier this year for 'starving those poor horses' on the track. They simply could not grasp the concept that if it's coming out, it's going in. Weirdly enough they never took up my offer to do the daily poo picking so they...

    Overweight two year old filly

    You could clip some neck/belly off (or possibly more?) not so that she's cold, but so that her body has to use a smidge more energy to keep it at optimal temp? Or whack it all off and lightly rug as needed, again so not she's shivering cold, but just having to use that smidge more energy to keep...

    Best Poopa Scoopa!!

    Genuinely envious of anyone whose back can withstand that! Tried it once, never again! 😂

    Best Poopa Scoopa!!

    Only 2? Someone's not using their boot to compact it all down into the scoop to maximize the poop to scoop ratio! 🤣 For real though, these are good, can't stand the regular sized ones anymore. A sensible person would use it for a couple of poops to save their back, I however am not a sensible...

    Cheeky/ridiculous posts you see on Facebook.

    Nope, give him a cheeseburger or two and send him on his way, poor bugger.

    Anxious dog, at my wits end.

    I've a nearly 5yo that's recently been acting anxious/generally weird too, so it's almost a relief to know it's not just mine! Vet check was all clear thankfully, so at least I know it's not from pain.

    Advice on buying a horse with a bone chip please

    Just noticed this line, make sure you check him for any early signs of CPL then, if he has it then those lovely hairy feet will need to be shaved unfortunately!

    Anatomical girth- Prolite

    Both myself and two different mares of mine hated the Prolite. Had much better results with the Shires Velociti Lusso girths personally.
