Thank you for your help I think I’ll go with Getting him a 200g rug liner just under his turnout and see how we get on

Hi just asking what everyone would suggest rugging a clipped Tb with when he gets brought back into stable in September will be getting clipped then. Last year he had a fleece rug and a lightweight turnout rug on over the top but is there any more I should be rugging or any better rugs I could...

He's 100% to catch it's when you get him out of the gate to take him out of the field he bolts while holding him, bucks and paws

I really would prefer not to move yards as I've been at this one for nearly 3years and really like it, his field is directly beside the road so when I take him out it's a narrow lane to it so I don't really have the space to lunge beside a road

My 12yo tb gelding has just been turned out to grass for a few weeks for the summer, he is out with two other horses that both suffer seperation anxiety (one mare,one gelding) so they have to be brought in with him or they panic. He was always fine to brought in himself as last year he was...

Yeah I only used the hibiscrub today as he rolled and got sand in it, thanks for your help

Hi my tb cut his head whilst getting his head collar caught on a hook outside the stable and has unfortunately got a minor puncture wound at the top of his mane. I've cleaned with hibiscrub and put on sudocreme and a dab of udder cream over the top just asking advice on any other ways to aid the...

Weight loss

He's only starting sweating on Friday he hasn't always sweat with it on he was fine on Saturday now he's sweaty again today, if it was the case he always sweated I would obviously keep it off but its only Friday and today he's been sweaty, he's wore it all year without a problem

but due to the weight loss I haven't wanted to keep it off that long in case he drops weight so I have a lighter one on

Only going by what the vet said, there's also a possibility he could've been colicky due to feed change but again it's a possibility nothing's for certain that's why I asked opinions

Also bloods have been done that's why he's on the antibiotics

Vet said it could be attributed to the feed change and the antibiotic taking longer to digest in the gut, feeding eggs as last time he was sick they really perked him up so I've been sticking with them. When the rugs off he's back to normal just when it's on he gets sweaty

Thanks, phoned vet and she just said it could be the antibiotic working differently,

Also his temperature is normal
