    need some suggestions for catching a feed thief or thieves

    I'd go with a note in the feed bins too. I had this a few years back now and put a note in my bins saying - to the person taking my food, I know who you are and unless you stop I shall be telling the whole yard you are a thief! The next day, the person whom I thought it was approached me and...

    Assisted DIY required - Frimley or surrounding areas

    I've recently moved to Frimley, Camberley in Surrey and am looking for assisted DIY for well mannered 15.3hh TB gelding. The few that I have found are currently full and I'm getting rather desperate! Any ideas or recommendations gratefully received. Many Thanks

    major bitting problems!

    We have been suffering from the same problem for ages. Have worked out that our bit is too big so it is rubbing him. Plus the rubber/material of these bits can cause friction if the mouth isn't very moist. Have been using a friends in a smaller size, and have also been slathering his mouth up...

    polo pony to happy haccker / leisure horse

    My boy is ex polo (full Argentinian TB) and although he is quite a nervous type who can be a bit spooky and a bit sharp, he is also the most genuine horse I have ever owned, a true all rounder who does everything. I spent the first year I had him doing loads of groundwork and de-spooking with...

    Making/Buying Field Safe Headcollars??

    Horsewear make a field safe headcollar with a velcro attachement at the side which snaps apart if horse gets stuck in anything. I can vouch for its effectiveness as my boy has his left on all the time. He can be tricky to catch but I didn't want to/would not turn him out in a normal one. The...

    Congratulations on the birth of your baby. I have had 2 C Sections, the first an emergency and the second planned. After the first I was back on doing gentle stuff 5 1/2 weeks after I'd had my daughter, and back to proper riding about 2 1/2 months after. After my second (August this year) I...

    Strangles Test

    My YO asked me to do this when we moved in as we were coming from a strangles area, however in my opinion it was rather pointless as he had to be quarantined anyway until we had the results of the blood tests back!. Strangles has up to a 2 week incubation period so you would need to take the...
