My elderly horse, 1 pill a day, lost his love of life and looked so poor I decided to PTS before that winter arrived. It seemed pointless medicating a horse once this decision had been made so I stopped the pills, I got my old boy back! He carried on for another 5 years with a grin on his face...
It is generally an earlier cut so more easily digested hence why some horses do well on it. The fermentation process turns the sugar into lactic acid so if your horse have gut issues it may not suit. It is also higher protein. For a normal horse of good weight without ulcers I prefer haylage.
I think Audi may be quoting you the gross vehicle weight not the Kerb weight, the Kerb weight which will be nearer 1500Kgs will include the car and all standard equipment and liquids (sometimes a full tank of fuel) the gross vehicle weight is the maximum weight allowed including a full set of...
The heels on scoot boots can be stretched to fit by holding that area in simmering water for 5 minutes and molding them to the shape required as they cool down. Obviously if you try this and you are still not happy you can't return them so you would have to be very happy with the rest of the...
When I had the shoes taken off my girl I had the vet there at the same time to do x-rays before during and after to help the farrier, she needed 1/4 inch off the outside front right to balance them. She walked out fine for the first 3 weeks, doing 20 mins a day on hard flat ground, and then the...
I don't post much but I felt it worth outing myself 😉, I was talked out of taking the shoes off for about 12 months. Hopefully the pictures help someone else, she would never have come consistently sound if the shoes had stayed on. She stands chance now. Thanks again to YCBM for her help. X
The pictures below are of my mare, thank you so much YCBM, the bottom is when her shoes came off 7 weeks ago. The top is last week after her last trim, I had been struggling with her in shoes for 4 years before this. The best thing I could have done, it is a massive improvement in a short...
My fussy 19 year old will eat anything, but preferably room temperature chicken, if smothered in the yogurt squeezy treats recommended above, any flavour. Hope he is back on form soon.
I have had grown rabbits and baby ones, squirrels, more rats and moorhens (live and dead, in the house or out, chicks and adults) obviously other rodents. We could have a feast!
This is an 8kg cat coming out of a small dog flap. A big rat that was alive and kicking until i screamed and sent him out, yes I swore! Not for the first time or the last probably. Also not the worst thing he has done, just captured.
Can you have both gates opening outwards into the track? It would temporarily block it but create a channel so your horse can only go to the field (or stables).
