Michen, you need to do what you know is right. Others have opinions, but they are not living in your shoes, they don’t know Bog like you do. If you feel you can’t return to the barn with Dusty, they be what may, a new place may be a better place. . I only know you from on this forum, but you...

My son’s first TB playing Polocrosse was G sired by Northern Dancer. A small 15-2 chestnut mare Penny. Never grew big enough for racing and didn’t have the urge to race, but she taught my son a heck of a lot

In Polocrosse, we always wrap insulation tape above and below any sort of boot. It stops them moving.

Get Bog a mini friend. So you can hack and he won’t be alone. They do seem to have made friends .

Blue ridge mountains , Virginia USA. Could live with the winters. Just me and the dogs and a few horses.

Once you start riding, do ride and lead Bog, do use knee boots on Bog. We used to do it all time with polo and Polocrosse ponies

Round my way, DIY with turnout, stable, storage and a school is £50 a week. And a list of added on charges. Straw is included. But buy hay on site or get own , and us, most fields are trashed and YO won’t let anyone move to summer fields till it’s going dryer

Before I sold my horses and gave up, I had a good friend on the yard in next door stable. She had a horse that needed expensive deet fly spray, as he would be driven crazy by flies. But it was disappearing at a quick rate. Whereas a bottle of spray would last a few weeks, she was now having to...

A lady I knew, who had a knee issue, taught her pony to stand to be mounted using right side and her right leg, as she tried and failed to get on left side and left leg due to her knee issue . Even with a block , her knee could dislocate on left side.
