    Amigo Bug Rug vs Rambo Protector

    Hi, does anyone have any feedback on these 2 rugs? Durability, fit, etc? I was looking at getting the Protector as I have the Rambo Duo's for both my horses and they fit them really well and have lasted well on a horse that has destroyed everything else within a season! But I've noticed the...

    Kay McCarrol McTimoney Practitioner

    Hi, has anyone had Kay McCarrol to treat their horse before? My horse feels off but vet can't find anything wrong. I've had a very good Osteopath treat her for muscle tightness and it has already made a difference but I'm not convinced it is just a muscular problem and I've been told to keep...

    Lotagen for Proud Flesh

    Hi, has anyone used Lotagen for treating or preventing proud flesh? May horse was kicked above the knee on the inside of her fore leg while I was away and the stable did not contact me or do anything about it! It got infected and swelled. The infection has been treated with intravenous...

    Where to buy saddles from in the UK?

    Thanks for advice, appreciate it. Will try saddledirect as they do the trial which is what I was looking for so I can get the fit checked. I found it really unusual that the local tack shop wasn't keen to let them out on trial and nor were some of the ebay sellers and wasn't sure if this was...

    Saddle preferences for young horse

    Hi, Does anyone have any opinions of the Shires Hi-Lite self adjusting saddle? Or any other reasonably priced saddles that may be good for starting a youngster? I'm looking at lower priced saddles as I don't want to spend a lot until she has been under saddle awhile and has develped more...

    Passports

    No the section for innoculations isn't completed and I would also have thought that it should be for her to be allowed to travel. I think I will contact the vet who checked her and query it. Lovely girl but after hearing others' bad experiences I'd like to get as much info as possible. Thanks...

    Passports

    Thanks for the response. Yes that does help. I wasn't sure if the microchipping was now done for horses born or those travelling in the previous year and I want to take her for training outside of the UK later this year. It looks like the book is for her as it matches her markings. But...

    Passports

    Hi, I'm not sure how the horse passports work over here and have just bought a filly who has been imported. I had her vetted and she passed with no problems and I received a book with her and it appears to be her but I thought she would be micro-chipped and would have had innoculations for...
