I'm moving to the area later this year and am looking for somewhere to keep my little cob, preferably DIY.
Doesn't have to be mega posh, just need a stable, turnout and a basic ménage.
New to the area so looking for some help from you guys.
Cheers
Seeing as that's my horses' advert that was linked to at the beginning, I will share my experiences with them...
We have been through the loan cycle once, and he is returning due to a change of circumstance of his loaner (it's not for me to share why but no fault of either her or the horse)...
I've been here and would always recommend a longer rope/line (along with a hat and gloves!) to give you chance to be able to respond quickly enough. A short pair of reins and they can whip round and be off before you know it. I'm guessing if it's a large baby then is likely to be either a TB or...
I like Warwick Schiller. Very blunt and seems to hate warmbloods, but he seems to get good results without too much flannel in between.

My stable slopes so I just put a sprinkle in the corner where it collects and remove it when I muck out, too much and it just becomes a pain. I did start from shavings though and just wound it down, putting straw on top.
Thanks for all these, bit cautious about the muckboots as they do ones that are very similar to the Just Togs ones I bought first. Interestingly after returning them I found a bit of paper in the boot of my car showing that you're not supposed to wet them? How does that work?
I bought a saddle for a loan horse I had. The one she came with didn't really fit her very well. I kept hold of it however, and had an adjustable one fitted.
When she went back I returned her with her original saddle (which I had stored properly) and kept the adjustable which I then had fitted...
Hello all!
Please can I have recommendations for some nice and warm, but tough wellies.
I have bought Joules in the past as they fit well and are comfy to wear all day, but they usually don't last very long, so no more.
Had Ariat Mudbuster and they split very early on, despite me not...
