I had tried numerous supplements over the 3 years I have had my cob, none of which cleared his FWS up totally. However, I am now using the Aviform Pro-Choice FWS supplement whenever he has a flare up and it clears it up totally in a couple of days. Absolute game changer for us.

Thanks for recommending getting the vet out as I was thinking along those lines anyway. So I will do that.

Thanks. We will be swapping back to daytime turnout anyway now the nights are getting colder.

My 23 year old retired mare has recently lost quite a bit of weight and I am getting worried bearing in mind we are going into winter. She is currently turned out at night and in during the day. She has 2 main meals of alfa a and veteran mix (large bucket with as much feed as she will eat)...

I have had experience of this with my old mare. She was 30 and still full of life and being ridden when it was confirmed with a biopsy in December 3 years ago. No treatment was recommended due to her age and it got worse quite quickly after that. She rubbed a lot so needed constant cleaning and...

That's where my Dad took me to get my jodhpurs, hacking jacket, boots and hat back in the early 60s when I was a kid. He also got me one of those long riding macs.

I'm going to the evening performance on the 18th with my daughter and eldest granddaughter. Haven't been for a few years so looking forward to it.

I have one and it made a noticeable difference in winter with my old mare if I put it on her for an hour before riding.

A LW cob would be ok, just not a HW one. Could you pm me with information.

If anyone has a bit of time, I could do with your collective help. Lost my old mare in May last year and have been seriously looking for a new once since November. What with sellers not getting back to me, horses turning out not to be as advertised or lame, and the last one who seemed perfect...

I received one too. Never done eventing before and no intention of doing so in the future.

Other for me too. Owner of 1 semi retired horse that my daughter rides and currently looking for a new horse for myself to ride.

Thanks for the recommendations. Horse ended up not being right for me. But I will bear them in mind if I do manage to find a horse I like in the same area.

Hi. I am going to see a horse for sale in Battle, East Sussex today and if viewing goes well I will need to arrange a 5 stage vetting. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good vetting vet in the area?
