Yes your right it was on look north or something. They moved straight away 2 yeArs ago when they found the source of the problem. Thanks for input - have found some lovely local loan homes etc over the last few days, and have a few understanding experienced people coming to see the others- maybe...

Yes they are wanting to rehome, just want to ensure people who take them on realise they need rest now but may in time come back to full health and be a great ridden pony/ horse. They did not carry on breeding once the problem came to light, all have been affected differently but to summarise...

Yes she is ok now. Thanks for advice.

Thanks for the replies. I don't want to go into their situation, they had a successful business before they got ill, have moved away to rectify the problem, have used numerous vets etc. all Iam asking is what you would do with the current horses which need time (they have spent 2 years getting...

I don't know the specifics and just want to try and help their situation now- they are good people who have been unlucky. They had a yard that was next to a landfill site which was releasing unknown poisonous toxins which made the horses and daughter ill 2 years ago. They have subsequently moved...

Posting on behalf of a local yard. A local family run competition yard (mother and daughter) are looking to rehome ten of their home bred horses due to not being able to afford to keep the horses, as they are not earning their keep unfortunately. Ten of the horses unfortunately suffer...

We are in Cheshire, yes did think a about the age increase so may advertise now and see! Thanks

I have this type of 'perfect horse' ..... But can't seem to sell. It's only 4 so I understand it can't do the work load of an older one, but if people don't want to spend the higher prices and are prepared to spend a season going a little steadier, what do you think the budget would be for that...

Hi all. I'm looking to send my 4 year old mare to a good 'showjumping' dealer as she is too good for me to produce, in the hope that they will know/ find someone rather than having to advertise. Who would you recommend in the west midland area, and how does it work re cost- do you pay livery...

Hi am looking for someone/ a livery yard that has grass livery available for the summer. Need somewhere to turn my horse out whilst he recovers from a tendon injury and have lost the field I currently rent. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks

Thanks for the replies, not quite what I wanted to hear but what I expected. Am waiting to go back for X-rays. As long as I keep it still it hasn't been too painful and I can muck out one handed, unfortunately most of the horses I ride can be quirky so no hacking on a long rein fr a while...

Hi, am constantly inundated with requests to go and do gate shutting days for people who feel they are unable to readily hop on and off or hunters who do not want to spend their day at the back of the field. Do regular hunt members feel there is any scope in offering a 'professional gate...

Hi, came off a youngster and fractured my collar bone on Friday, have been told I won't be riding for 6 weeks, how realistic is this as I am a self employed rider and need to be back in the saddle ASAP?! Thanks

Hi could anyone give me a heads up for any unaffiliated odes coming up in the same area as stated in this post please over August/sept thanks

I am a rider based in Cheshire looking to set up a business which retrains and furthers the career of ex-racehorses in affiliated eventing, dressage following racing, aimed at owners wanting their horse to have a continued competitive future. I admire and follow the work done by the RoR, and...
