    lets talk food shall we

    Raw - we use a local supplier of Manifold Valley Meats. When going on holidays or leaving them with the dog boarder, we feed wainwright’s trays for convenience.

    Rug vs no rug

    You’re doing the right thing OP! There is no rug in the world that is as good as the one your horse grows for itself - if its allowed to. Too many people rug based on how they feel themselves, without actually placing a hand on their horse to see if they really need it. I always say that if a...

    Looking after mum with an aggressive dog. Help please!

    How much exercise does he get? Is he too aggressive to go to something like doggy daycare? Just wondering if tiring him out as much as possible may help to calm him down? His anxiety/aggression may be increasing as he knows that your mum is unwell and having nurses or carers visiting will be...

    Shetlands stabbed in Lancashire

    I know. Sometimes I'm just at a loss at the human race. I can't get my head around someone deliberately going into that field with a knife and an intention to harm them. One died, the other has multiple neck wounds. They think that the bigger horse who normally protects them was deliberately...

    Shetlands stabbed in Lancashire

    Just seen this on the news and I'm furious and heartbroken all at the same time... https://www.facebook.com/BBCNW/videos/1629113040453085/ I just don't know how or why anyone could be so damn cruel 💔 😢.

    I'd love a border collie - but should I?

    My border collie is just fab - he's the sweetest, most intelligent dog I've ever come across. We have a terrier as well but in general he's not a fan of other dogs. He likes his own space so as long as he's got a quiet corner to retreat to he's fine. He's never destroyed anything (had him since...

    Livery St Helens, NLW, Haydock, Billinge, Rainford, Crank

    There are 2 yards behind the Bottle and Glass - Mike Boardman's and Ian Abbot's. The latter is a nice quiet yard but not much in the way of facilities. Hacking from either yard isn't great, although you can cross the bypass and ride around rainford. There are lots of small yards in the area but...

    Help. Stressed, anxious and worried horse

    Definitely get his eyes checked. I've known several horses over the years who appear to have behavioural issues but were actually losing their sight, which puts it all into context.
