Hi - I know this an old thread but how is your mare now crabbymare? My mare has just started treatment for hind gut ulcers.

Hi - my mare has just been diagnosed (last 3 weeks) with hind gut ulcers/acidosis. She has started succeed in the last 2 weeks and is starting Equishure when it arrives. What I am wondering is what do people feed their horses? She has ad lib hay but we are moving yards and I need to decide on...

Hi - I'm clipping my horse at the weekend. A full clip as we are working quite hard at the moment. Questions is when he wears a fleece he gets very very itchy on the shoulder. What alternative rug could I use? It's not an issue with turnout etc.

Thank you both but Basingstoke is the opposite way. I love on Odiham and work near camberley

Hi - I'm looking for assisted DIY livery in the Hook/Odiham/Fleet area. It is proving a hard task. Can anyone recommend anywhere please? Thanks

Hi - I'm looking to buy a cob ideally a mare. I used to loan a Breton cob a few years ago and currently have a Clydesdale X so like the chunkier breed. Can anyone recommend any good sites to look on......I've not looked to buy before as my mare 'fell into my lap' as the saying goes. I'm based...

Hi - can anyone recommend an assisted DIY livery yard near Hartley Wintey, Odiham, Fleet area. Moving into the area in a couple of months. Thanks

Bit pricey but what about prestige RP pressure girths - suit my pink skinned sensitive mare right out

Hi - any news on this issue? The chin strap on my competition bridle which I've had for 9 months and clean weekly with a wipe over after each use - seems to be shedding the leather. I'm in discussion with Horseware and the retailer I brought it off but I doubt they will replace it

Thanks redders - she has a sports massage every 4 weeks and chiro every 3 months (both within the last 2 weeks) teeth and tack are all good too. I've had her in a fixed eggbut before and she was worse in that. I'll keep working in our lateral exercises

Hi - my horse leans badly on the right and tries to stick her nose to the left. I currently ride in a kk ultra sensogan 16mm bit. She is also head shaking but does have seasonal allergies. I have ordered on trial a couple of different bits - 1) Neue Schule turtle top, 2) Myler comfort snaffle...

Thx

Thanks LJR - I do have a spare bridle that is just a plain cavesson.... Would this be ok with a snaffle bit?

Hi, I've just entered my mare in a local ridden coloured class. I currently ride her in a Micklem bridle with a snaffle bit. Will this be acceptable at local level?

So my mare has always had 'character' but recently a little more than usual, so I went through all the usual - back, saddle, teeth and tack where I altered and changed the relevant things. She was then going beautifully. Own YO then brought a new mare which has seemed to upset the hormone...
