    hunting newbie - turnout question

    Just on that.. if your horse does kick a hound... yes you should inform hunt staff and the correct thing to do is too apologise and go home. They will not be best pleased if that happens. But as said keep him face on and this shouldn't happen :D

    hunting newbie - turnout question

    ladies should wear navy jackets.. but if its your first time out a tweed or plain black jacket will do.. I've always been told it is acceptable for anyone under the age of 18 to wear tweed.

    we park our tractors/massive lorries/anything like in front of any of our gates... & take our tack home. Only thing you can do.. oh and we have a very vocal border collie & a doberman who has a dislike to strangers! And a grumpy old man with a shotgun. I don't object to people living the way...

    Why do people want to own cobs?

    Because people pick their horses not on their breed but on their suitability and temperament. I hve welshys and TBs... would let anyone ride the TB but my welshy is none as "dangerous" but hes just misunderstood really. Sooo I think your idea of cobs may be slightly disorientated to be honest lol

    Older horses at county shows

    Hopefully he'll be alright then! I haven't had chance to show my own at county yet as I've been grooming for other people at them, but I got a little youngster this year so I've got the raw material so hopefully he will make the grade showing wise!

    Older horses at county shows

    No he definately does not... he think's hes still 5 and acts like it! And looks very well, people are suprised at his age, he always does well in the workers.

    I called 999 today - Please fence your ditches :(

    I had a similar situation to this, came across a pony with its back legs wrapped round and round in barbed wire.. poor thing was distraught and exhasuted. Its horrible to see things like that... so I completely agree with you, fence ditches... and don't keep horses in any form of wire fencing...

So I would say...

    Insurance

    Hmmm I know it is a bit of a nightmare.. but I think at the yard I used to work at they were all insured with NFU... the best I've come across for horses. If I was to insure, I would pick them!
