You are not alone, please don't give up or I might too! My two yr old WB grew to 17hh with attitude, but the sweetest horse I have ever met. He is a bit of a git, i thought had finally got him on side, albeit a bit lazy/spooky/unpredictable. I had to start taking him to a different school for a...

I hope the original poster gets to the bottom of the horse's problems asap, I would insist I wanted my horse xrayed, and there is nothing to stop you from asking another practice to so this if you have lost faith with the current vet. After all you know your horse better than anyone. As you...

Thank you very much for your help. I will add bloodlines tonight, need to check spellings from his passport! He is a fantastic horse, he has the nicest temperament nothing seems to bother him! He will make someone a great fun horse.

Due to a big change in circumstances (a good one, expecting a baby!!!!) I am selling one of my 4 horses, I did buy him with the intention of selling him in the summer but really need to cut down my work load before then now. I have never sold a horse (hence why i have so many!) so really want...

Thank you so much everyone for your thoughts and kind words I will look back at this in weeks to come and remember my girl and all your lovely messages. We miss her terribly, it's so weird having two less feed bowls and an empty stable...and it is so v quiet. We even miss her irritating door...

will PM you!

Yes! rubber mats and massive straw beds with huge banks...horse heaven!

and obviously the price of the horse would reflect this confomational fault...! thanks for opinions.

Advice please.... Would you buy your ideal horse if one of the forelimbs turned in slightly? The horse is only 4 and has just had first set of shoes, so potentially corective farriery could also help, she moves straight on it just when stood it is noticeable??

I have used Michael Peace he was fab v calm and patient, no force used whatsoever, she does not respond well to people trying to force her to do something she doesn't want too! My pony was one of the worst horses he had ever had! He came twice over year or two that is how bad she was...and she...

So is my two year old! What breed is he/she? My baby is lame and we thought maybe an abscess but vet thinks he is just foot sore from the hard ground. Hope he is ok.
