    I love basset hounds! We've had a couple and they're great dogs! We did have some health problems with our older one, Lucy, she developed epilepsy when she was 7 but this was managed by medication til she was 9. (dont think this was anything to do with her being a basset!) Our 'baby' is now 6...

    Horse dentists in the North west

    I'd highly recommend Tim Baty, he's based over here nr Hexham. He does travel though as he spends a lot of time working on racehorses!! I've used him for all ours and he's excellent, so quiet and even the naughtiest ones we've had have behaved. If you wanna give him a bell just pm me and I'll pm...

    PUTTING MY HORSE OUT ON LOAN

    I've loaned out several horses/ponies and also loaned them for the kids too. Most of the time its been a positive experience. Recently I loaned Glen out for a year and last month went to fetch him back! I was gobsmacked! I'd vetted and referenced the new owners, drawn up a loan agreement and...

    help needed now - selling pony tonight!!

    major alarm bells are ringing for me - although I am extremely suspicious at the best of times! Why would you take a pony on loan knowing you were going on holiday in a week? I suppose given that they are respectable people (well you'd hope a vet would be ) I'd be a little bit more inclined to...

    help needed now - selling pony tonight!!

    I would definitely not let any of my ponies go without cash up front!! Keeping hold of the passport guarantees you nothing, sorry to be so negative but I'd be extremely cautious. I have learnt the hard way that you cannot trust anyone when it comes to selling and buying horses!!! I'd hang onto...

    Loaning - are people having a laugh?!?

    I went to view a 13.2 pony to loan for Hattie whilst Louis is on box rest. The pony was ok ish...nothing special but would do for pony club once it had a bit more schooling. Anyway, we agreed that we would do a BHS loan agreement and the owner came and looked at our yard etc... then she...

    Horse standing all 4 feet on 1 spot, trembling & sweating

    as others have said it sounds like a horse we had who got GS - I really hope that its not GS as the outcome is pretty [****], in most cases! Our horse was exactly as you've described your horse and he was still eating, with no green snot. Even after 5days there was still no snot! One of the...

    What has HHO done for you?

    HHO kept me sane when I was going through my divorce, advised me when I was having problems with a 2yr old colt and generally is full of wonderful and varied advice. I really think there are some truly wonderful people on HHO - would love to meet so many of them in RL. Its quite amazing how HHO...
