My sister purchased a new horse about a month ago. She viewed him twice he was forward but we'll behaved. We've had him about a month now, he's had a few good days but many bad. He's been bucking, rearing and bolting refusing to do things that my rising 4 year old doesn't think twice about. He...

I believe a paid about £400 for my second hand GFS GP saddle in fab condition 17.5 inch, my sister paid about £300 from hers but that was about 15 inches I cant remember the make of her saddle. The are both English leather.

I think it depends on the saddle and the shape of the horse/pony. My 16hh warmblood is in a 46 inch girth, but so is my sisters 13hh welsh sec c. I will admit we have only just bought the sec c, he's overweight and the saddle isn't a great fit. Saddle fitter is booked for next week.

I pay £30 per week for 3 acres, 3 horses, running water from a stream, 3 small stables and a small amount of storage for hay. The horses live out and I use the stables as a shelter.

I'm working this morning. Then we are going to the cinema to watch deadpool and will go for a pub meal after. We are not giving gifts this year.

Thanks all :)

Thats a great idea. Lokks like i've got some shopping to do.

Thank you all :)

As long as hes not sweating excessivley I dont see any issues.

As in the title really. We've been lucky in the past and our horses and ponies have seemed to settle straight away. My sister had a new pony, only yesterday and he seems unsettled, he was even rearing in the stable this morning. Its understandable hes been though a lot, plus we had thunder...

Can anyone recommend any waterproofs that are actually waterproof? I'm fed up of getting soaking while wearing clothes that are supposed to be waterproof. Thanks

Thank you. I think I'm going to do some shopping now :)

Thank you, I will take a look now. I've not read many novels. I've just read the one dollar horse, it wasn't bad. But I think its more for teenagers, I read it in less than a day, but I'm still going to read the rest of the series :).

This ^^^^ I completley agree with her. She did the best that she could for the horse under her circumstances.

Happy new year :)
