I give mine corn on the cob and they go mad for it.

I had easy boot gloves but with a feathery cob I had to make the straps longer. This year I got scoot boots and love them.

I like R&R and always visit when I'm south

I feed mine this way, it doesn't go off.

Mine is barefoot and has been for years with no problems. Farrier trims ever 8 weeks

I said yes. I have comprehensive cover for one horse but BHS 3rd party covers the two shetland, field ornaments. I also insure my dogs. Having had cattle break though the fence into my horse's field and chasing them onto the road. Fortunately there were no injuries. I have also had to walk...

Wooden posts and two strands of wire run from the mains. Small Shetland just puts his head down and goes through the fence - just shout at him and he goes back. The others respect the fence and stay where they are supposed to be!

I had 35 at the last count but managed to sell a few when I didn't have a pony they would fit. I might have acquired a few more since then but daren't count. I only have one pony and 2 shetlands who have to have one each just in case they ever need to wear one

I like the gloves (but I also like marmite), they did fit both my horses. I did have some that you had to pump air into, which I could never get 100% right but OH could so he had to put them on for me

14.2hh cob in a 6'3". Did have a tb 15.2hh in a 6ft rug of the same make

Not seen any here yet but the skylarks are singing and many of the summer visitors are arriving.

I used to stable my two at night but they never seemed to dry out and one got a skin fungus. They now live out all the time but if its really bad they can go into the stable for shelter during the winter but they are small enough to get shelter from the stone walls round the field

Nissan X-trail rate it 10 our of 10 Henra Cayenne rate it 8 out of 10, it was a lovely light horse box but had a canvas roll up top at the back which the wind destroyed after about 3 years. Carried 2 horses no problem. Then a couple of years ago the box blew over and was damaged beyond...

We changed to a raw food diet and fat lab has never looked better. We can no longer get fresh tripe so I just buy chicken frozen chicken portions and have two very fit active shiny slimmer dogs.

So sorry for you all. They are never here long enough. You are doing the right thing so cuddle her and spoil her and make her comfy. And treasure all the happy memories of her.
