    Vet recommendation docaster

    He does cover Doncaster as I'm pretty sure he covers race days in that area. He has done a vetting for me and was thorough. There is also Moorhouse vets I think . They have a few decent vets.

    Flying Hipo

    Lovely photographs of them both. Glad they enjoyed the event and sounds like confidence was restored. I wish my HiPo had a mane like that.

    Jura- Registered Highland! - I want him.

    Safe then? Maybe he just needs to find 'his thing'. He looks lovely though. I bet my HiPo would love him for company.

    My Poor Horse

    Just wanted to send our best wishes too. Sounds traumatic - for all of you. Wishing him a speedy recovery

    EDT - Power Tools or Manual Float?

    I think both manual and power tools have their place. Power tools without sedation could cause significant harm should the horse decide to suddenly spook etc- probably one reason why an EDT likes to use sedation (I believe in the US this is standard practice).

    Went to view a pony for sale - Owners now want to loan :(

    Sounds like you did the right thing but I hope for the sake of the pony they will take your offer to buy outright.

    Sending loan pony back

    As the others have said, a month tends to be the norm. It's possible even with her own facilities she may have no stable for the pony. I would let the owner find another person to loan rather than get caught up in it, especially if the pony has damaged your daughters confidence. I'd advise...

    Western Tack shop- Yorkshire?

    Hooves don't have a shop now- just a trailer they take to shows, so if you look on their Facebook site or the Western Equestrian site for shows then you could browse their stock by attending a show or clinic they are visiting. Otherwise ring someone of the other on line suppliers to find out...

    Raised poles for poor people

    Great idea. I struggle moving poles around because of their weight, but these sound perfect

    So am I going to regret this? Horsebox v trailer

    Following this thread with interest as I am also in the same position- but my boy travels quite well. He does not like to do the turn in the side loading 3.5 ton box though, which is a shame.

    Who runs the livery at Bromley Farm, Wortley?

    I gather Liz Eadon has a new yard so I wondered if Bromley still offered part/full livery? I want a nice yard for my gelding who will be coming back from his trainer soon having done winter boot camp. I need a floodlit arena and all year turnout, stables at least 12x12 and decent, safe...

    Tracing a Paint gelding called Lyle- 15.3- near Weston Supermere

    Sold to a nice family who kept their horses at home on a small holding . Sold around 2010/2011 from Holbeach to a lady who I think lived near Weston Supermere. I think she was into' Ride with your Mind' . Just wondered how he was and if anyone had any information on him.
