yes I use my dads 14 plate ranger to tow, love it!! you literally don't know that there is a trailer attached to it! drives much smoother with a box than its does without one!

well Petplan queried the invoice because we had two claims going at the same time and the get didn't split the invoice, so that might have taken about 6 weeks to sort, but for the rest of it they would pay within a week or two. all got a bit confused, as I made about 6 claims during the year...

would be a waste of money if the saddle doesn't fit your horse? perhaps you should consult your saddle fitter before spending out on a saddle that potentially wont fit?

hahah true enough I'm shocked the people selling themselves as professionals would behave in this way!! certainly makes me wonder who I should use on my pony going forward

thanks all, exactly the opinion or everyone on who is on the same yard as, other than the person in question!! who is actually in the process of training to become an equine physio!!!!! The horse has clearly not been right for some time too, the saddle isn't the only problem, but he's so sweet...

I would like your opinions on the following If your horse wasn't right and your physio suggested getting the saddled looked at. the saddler fitter than tells you the saddle doesn't fit! would you continue to ride, knowing the poor thing is clearly so uncomfortable? whilst you try and find a...

ah okay, maybe that might be too many then!! so maybe ill just try for one ridden and one in-hand the first time!! don't think I'm quite ready for working hunter on this horse, so that won't be so bad!! I didn't think about all of the overlap of times etc!! so thanks for your advice

this has always been my opinion but there is too much where its been pulled over the years and the roots have not come out fully! I'd say 2/3 of that paddock is ragwort now! but it seems made to enforce grazing there when the other horses can eat a section down in another paddock, so the horse...

Its a bit of an unusual set up! we pay "livery" but its not a livery yard. Its an old farm, so I moved in many many years ago, as i had quite a few horses. I let a friend (this owner) move in as she was being evicted from her field, due to development. This was about a year ago, since then...

thank you!! I was thinking it might have been a DEFRA thing but apparently not!! As you say I'm not sure RSPCA would do anything but I will try WHW. I've told the owner I'm moving the horse and he'll have to be muzzled but I've not had a response!! my issue is one of the other ponies keeps...

Is there anything you can do (report to) if someone is refusing to move their lami prone horse from a field full of ragwort, as "the other fields have too much grass"
