Food for thought. I may mull it over. No harm in an ad I suppose. Thanks!

Hi I noticed a post about horse swaps and I wanted to get people's opinions! Is this quite a common thing to do and has anyone done it with any success? I have a lovely sporty horse who loves to jump. The older I get the more I just want to do dressage and showing, both of which are not his...

I have the same problem with my young horse, but he is fine on the left rein, his right rein is his bad one!! I used the raised pole technique as well and it really works, but you need loads of patience. Also once over the pole you need to turn onto a circle immediately, so after the pole the...

Lovely, is he a TB? He is very like my horse. Sorry.. don't know much about confo, but I know I like him!!

I work 35 hours a week and have fleixble working. I generally do 9-5 Monday to Saturday though. I have a 40 minute commute each way and my horse is DIY about 5 miles away from my house. The lady I share with brings him in for me and then I do the last evening check around 6pm I work in...

I ride my 5 year old TB in a neue schule loose ring snaffle with lozenge. He is like a different horse. I would never have believed that a bit would make such a difference (I always blamed my riding) but it is great, he is so soft and round with it when before he was hollow and always fighting...

I try and do my horse about twice a year. My OH is horrified that I do it at all!! I last did my horse after the vet had sedated him to get his teeth done. I seized the opportunity ( he doesn't like me touching his boy bits) and I was glad I did as there was a LOT of black gunk that came out. I...

In my experience larger yards are bitchy. i am on DIY with one other lady. it is brilliant. It is rough and ready, but I wouldn't swap it for the world. I am actually enjoying my hobby again!!

i think you are being judgemental and at the end of the day, it is not really any of your business. Why get so stressed about it? You may not know all the facts.

if she is in at night and rugged then def give her a shave. Just a bit at first and you can always take more off it need be!

I am getting very concerned as I have sent 3 emails over the past few weeks. They have debited the hire amount out of my bank account, but i really don't them to take any more when I haven't received the bit!! They don't even have a voice mail facility on their phone! fingers crossed. thanks x

has anyone had trouble with this site. I ordered a bit, they have taken money out my account and I have still received nothing. This was over 3 weeks ago. They haven't responded to any emails and their phone rings out.....
