Righthandside sorry!

I've sent you a pm, your inbox should be on the top left handside

Is she advertised as broodmare / companion because of her foreleg conformation? My first thought was tb that has been in training but then left for a while.

Not really idiotic but a girl came to view my tb gelding whom I've had for 5 and a half years and never fallen off which I'd advertised for part loan. He frightened her and she got off so I got on to show her how it was done and he dropped me the far side of the field and legged it back to his...

I use pro hoof too for my tb.

I'm moving to Haydon Bridge as now working there and looking for somewhere to keep my horse if anyone can help?

Interesting. I have a 7yo tb who started with mild laminitis 2 years ago and I had major trouble with him on one particular yard which the turn out fields had been arable and were planted with purely rye grass and he could tolerate no more than about 2 hours around June time. Now on a...

Mine also hacks on a loose rein and usually alone, the more you do the better they get. I went for a hack around the village bareback today as having saddle issues, got some funny looks though!

Is Coppy Farm still a riding school? I know they still have a livery yard there. I did my BHS exams there as a working pupil there 20 years ago, it was a big riding school / livery and they were big into showing then, had wins at HOYS with hacks and ponies.

I go to the yard to do my horse and that alone and don't want the distractions as time is limited and I'm not a very sociable person anyway, I don't see why this should be a problem to other liveries, it's not personal, but i'd rather spend the time with my horse!

I have an ex irish point to pointer that's the most laid back horse ever and has absolutely no attitude what's so ever and a flat bred that's a total diva, sharp, argumentative and unpredictable. He also tests the rider! In general I've worked with point to pointers and hunt horses ( some ex...
