i was wondering a few months back if there was ever any light at the end of the tunnel. I had a huge confidence knock after a bad fall from someone elses horse but although i thought i was over it, when my own young pony started to nap out on hacks i found it very difficult. What made it...
i think it depends on the job you want the pony to do, Im currently also in the market for a pony for my son who is coming up for 3. I have standard shetlands here already as I show them but none are suitable at the moment to be a childs first pony however obviously I am rather biased to the...
what a fright you must have got, thank goodness your dog is ok. Not ever a wise idea to let a dog out of sight on a yard or anywhere for that matter unless it’s your own property and you know exactly what’s about. I know of a couple of people who haven’t been so lucky as you :(
i feel your pain but it is wonderful to have them out and about experiencing the outdoors. I would never, ever let them be unsupervised for even a second on yard, I know and see plenty who do but it’s a dangerous environment and not an environment for an unsupervised toddler. I either used...
yup stay away from supermarket brands; arden grange & james wellbeloved are good. There are many higher end fancy grain free foods available but none of my dogs have done anything but lose weight on them (i have 6 collies).
i have one and its the best £40 Ive ever spent!! Enables me to sit deep and stay in the saddle to big off the floor broncs. My young pony learned she can get me off with these and a nice spin thrown in, not any more :D I never remember to grab a neck strap but I forget Im holding the RStor. It...
quick update - my dogs didn’t gain any weight on millies at all :( I have had to refer to my vet, I wanted to do the best by my dogs on high end/grain free foods but it’s not working. My vet thinks being very high drive collies the high protein and low carbs in these foods just...
really sorry to read this, poor you. I have a poo eater who is now 7 and unfortunately deaf - Ive never got her out of the behaviour. Like you, i keep the garden as clear as possible and much as it grosses me out I try to forget about it and love her for what she is. Could you stick a line of...
your tb, welsh a and shetland are probably all needing different management? Id not worry about putting one out for the tb but your others would be best on netted hay
only way i got weight off my highland gelding was off grass altogether (bare paddock/hardstand), weighed the min amount of forage like your 6kg but may have been a bit less (as per dengie advice & confirmed with vet) and I used straw not hay. This was double netted in a greedy feeder net with a...
