    Schooling exercises on a Hack

    Hey all I dont have access to an arena or field to ride in, only hacking. I wanted to start incorporating more schooling exercises into my hacks but lacking imagination! I have started leg yielding in walk and trot, and also working on softness by bending head and neck while remaining straight...

    Flank pain - vet stumped

    He wasnt rugged at vets and isnt rugged at home as hes insanely fluffy. I gave the vets his usual hard feed. He wasn't reacting to the vets at RVC but as soon as i touched him he would. And then he was just pissed off and would react to the RVC vets like he did to me. But if we changed the...

    Flank pain - vet stumped

    Hello an update on this Pony went in to RVC, vets said they couldn't recreate what me and my new vet described where he would bite and threaten to kick if you touched his flank. New vet who saw him at the field went in and he instantly reacted. Pony was fine for all his scans even with...

    Flank pain - vet stumped

    I have already asked about hind gut and she said its baaically impossible to diagnose and they would only prescribe medication if a fecal sample came back with certain results I did try u33 which is for hindgut ulcers but that didn't do anything. ?

    Ulcers or something else?

    Thank you everyone, I stupidly forgot to mention the inbalanced foot to the vet so I'll pick that up with her on Tues when she's there for the scope. I think i focused on the behavioural changes as they were harder to mute.. Would leg issues cause all of these other issues? ?

    Ulcers or something else?
