    (bitchy) yards

    My cakes were one of the main reasons my old YO hated me 😆 She was very hard to please....apparently being tidy & friendly weren't what she wanted in her liveries!

    Who can microchip?

    Thank you MM-was a bit suprised when friend told me her pup was chipped by the breeder when they were there collecting him....I thought that would be a vet only job!

    Who can microchip?

    Hi all-quick question! Who can microchip dogs? Can breeders do it themselves? I've had a google and can't seem to find an answer!

    Final goodbyes

    He is the exact age my boy made it to & he'd been in my life since he was 5 & I was 7. Growing up together and spending that amount of time with each other is such a blessing. Well done for making what definitely sounds like the right decision. You do just know when the time is right xx

    When and how do you decide enough is enough?

    I've been following your other thread & just wanted to say that you sound like an amazing owner. He is lucky to have you. Sadly it sounds like PTS is going to be the kindest thing for him & awfully hard for you :-( I lost my chap aged 28 after having him in my life for over 23 years-& it was...

    After 23 years I said goodbye to my pony today.

    You did a brave thing & it was the right thing. I grew up with my old boy too for over 21 years-they leave a massive hole :-(

    there are some cheap hand clippers on ebay that might do the job. £6ish so not a huge waste if they don't work!

    Keeping a horse in the back of he lorry?

    Had to do this at Hickstead once with a stallion-they hadn't got a suitable stable left for him when we turned up so we took all the partitions out & bedded the back down. He cribbed....you can imagine how much sleep we got as the box rocked from side to side!!!!

    What makes owners "give up"

    I had my heart broken when I lost my boy-he'd been my best friend for 23 years & we grew up together. It was pointless getting another-i'm sure one day there will be another one, but not for a very very long time.
