He will explode whether someone is by his head or not so it’s safer if they aren’t, I’ve tried food, ear plugs, turning everything on and off, I fill the water buckets with a hose by him but you can’t touch him with the water. It’s not medical or pain related, he’s been checked thank you, it...

Forageplus do analysis but no idea of the cost, they analyse the haylage for Devon haylage which I’ve bought before.

I didn’t know there was a test, I will absolutely get that done. Supplements have made no difference and my current farrier has been fantastic, all others have made him lame, his feet aren’t pretty but they can at least now stand up to turnout. I won’t be changing to a barefoot trimmer...

It has been investigated and isn’t thought to be pain related, he has a learned behaviour where in a previous home he bucked people off and got away with it. He just hasn’t had every inch xrayed or scanned, he’s seen every year for vaccinations, teeth and a health check, he doesn’t have vision...

No need for anymore replies I obviously shouldn’t have posted, I was fed up and angry that yet again despite hard work over the years He wouldn’t let me do a simple thing to make him feel better in this hot weather. I’m tired of having a horse that I pay a lot of money to keep being a danger...

I’ve looked it up the visit plus mileage and vat would be well over 500 and I can’t imagine one visit would be enough

Not a rig, no hard food, I do have boundaries and zero tolerance of it but he goes into a blind panic if anything sets him off. He’s not too much for me but I would happily sell him on but not with him being dangerous to wash and clip etc and with sweet itch and hoof issues he’s not going to be...

I shouldn’t have done that today in hindsight but it’s not nice to have a hot sweaty horse in this weather and not be able to do anything for him unlike the others.

He wasn’t just put to grass he comes in every night and out every morning so he’s handled and no after nearly getting flattened on multiple occasions I don’t like him much anymore. He’s only on haylage/grass no hard food so nothing to strip back. He would still be hackable but it can’t be...

I would like someone like that to come but I don’t have the thousands to spend on him as I have others to keep and bills to pay. He can stay a field or ornament for now but it’s not fun to have a horse you can’t do anything nice with or for and I’m at the end of my tether and feeling rubbish...

This isn’t bolshy this is a blind panic where he is a danger to anyone around him. I have had professional help with no improvement. Lack of education or not I am at the end of my tether with a horse that is dangerous and can’t be sold on and today has just topped it all off. I’m sorry I’m not...

Individual turnout, he nearly killed my mini and my other boy is partially blind so he won’t be going out with others, they can interact over the fence

He goes into a complete blind panic with no regard for you, himself or his location. I have never allowed him to push me around but he goes into this state and is a danger to anyone around him and himself. The foot issue has been looked into and I believe my farrier and what he is telling me...

I’ve tried pretty much everything and yes I’m at the end of my tether and fed up with having a horse I can’t do anything with that could seriously hurt me without a care about it from him. Today has been the last straw and I’m not sure how much more I can take.
