    How to stop youngster pawing at things??

    I put a slip rail inside my stable door. Because of the pillars inside it held it just far away that it was a real effort for her to kick the door. When tied on the yard, never anything in reach and an AH/BRR to stop the behaviour. This was eventually reduced to a hard stare!

    Why Are People So Damn Rude and Assuming?!

    Ditto Honey!

    Slugs! How do you get rid of them?!

    A line of salt around the kitchen works, no more trails on the tiles, but then they went up the units instead.

    Dog Neutering

    Oh thankyou! I will pass that on :) It's something x those white ones that look like a cloud. Definitely not any kind of bulldog or staffordshire thing. He looks like a long haired Jack Russell really, with longer legs. He is a nice nature and always under control so maybe he would be fine to...

    Dog Neutering

    She is on a very low income. Thankfully the dog is insured for other bills, but obviously it won't cover neutering. She didn't expect the cost to be quite so much.

    Dog Neutering

    I agree entirely Alec. Just asking the question on her behalf. I have seen the odd offer on neutering by the charities which I thought were open to anyone, but for cost, as it were? I don't do dogs, is it ok to leave them entire?

    Dog Neutering

    A friend is looking to have her dog neutered and has been quoted £160 by her vets. Does this sound average for a 60 lb dog? Does anyone know of any deals or anything that might be available for neutering via charities etc?

    Do you love your horse? :-)

    Oh Alec, you have summed it up! My amazing mare died 2 1/2 years ago, I am still grieving. I got a new horse, she has gone, for exactly the reason that I can't afford to love another like that. It's rubbish :( As for my house, have hated it since we moved in, and am now trying to take control...

    Anyone used Chris Pearce - Equine Vet/Dentist?

    He is very good :) I used him while he was at the Barn and continued when he went alone :) so 3 ish years I guess. I like him and his work very much.

    Do you get the denist out for youngsters???

    I had mine done every 6 months by an EDT who is also a Vet. Her caps didn't seem to want to come off on their own and her breath would change slightly as food got packed around them. As a result I have almost the whole set of her milk teeth because the dentist would pop them off :)
