Thank you all for the advice. He is going to be gelded this Tuesday (fingers crossed he doesn't need the full op if he's a rig) but I've also had a thought that he's rushing to get into the barn for his feed as the only time he properly bolts is when we bring him in and he has his feed waiting...

Thank you for the advice. I'm determined to turn him into a superstar as I know myself and him have the potential. His behaviour is on and off and I would not want to sell him and know I've failed. I'll keep trying. I'm going to have the vet soon, just waiting on his second ball dropping and...

I need help with my 19 month old colt. He is very cheeky and always knows how to get his own way by rearing up or bolting by turning his head away as he knows I'm a lot weaker holding him back that way. He rears up to make me move when he doesn't get his own way. When I take him to and from the...

Hi my cob pony colt is 18 months and we have found that only one ball has dropped. How long should it roughly take for the second? We will be getting the vet out in April.

I have a 16 month colt which I'm getting castrated in April (bless him) and was wondering what training I can do with him to hopefully stick by for his future. He's okay to lead (sometimes is very stubborn when leaving the stable area) he doesn't spook at much of his surroundings, he's very good...

My 16 month colt is exactly the same. Great to bring back from the field and the other day I've started taking him on roads, he was great. But now he's getting even more stubborn and won't move from the barn and even stopped still whilst on a walk too! I want to work this issue before he gets...

He's able to go out now but the weather wasn't so great yesterday so I just walked him around the yard. He was waiting on a blood test which came back negative 😊

I have a 15 month yearling who seems to be very naughty whilst being lead outside the barn. I think it might have to do with him being stabled for a week due to waiting for test results but today he continuously tried to bolt whilst being lead around the yard and even kicked me. He's very quiet...

Thank you so much and if all goes well fingers crossed. I'll keep up his haylage throughout the day.

I have a 15 month yearling that has to be stabled for around 5 days until the vet can come out and do medical checks and a blood test. He cannot go out of the stable at all as the yard owner has said which I'm worried about as I don't want my yearling to become restless or anything. Also do I...

My own doesn't have strangles. I mean the livery that is available in my area to have him delivered to on Friday said that they've had it.

Hi, I've recently bought a yearling which will be delivered to my livery yard on Friday but I've just received a call from the yard owner saying his yard has had a case of strangles. He's stated that the horse has been isolated etc but obviously he had to give me a heads up about it. my horse...

So I recently bought a 15 month old cob pony yearling and he is my first as I have enough experience to train them from scratch. However I have a few questions that I just haven't mastered over my years of riding and would really appreciate the help! First of all, the yearling I have...
