I don't know if they have any space but ampney down farm on stow rd are nice and quiet and fantastic value. I paid £140 per inc haylage and grazing was fab

Ullenwood? Barton end in nailsworth?

There's a few places. AMpney down farm on a419 stow road. The old kennels by the college in the park. Green hill equestrian and h&b equestrian in daglingworth Plummers farm in siddington These are all have diy options and offer assistance.

interesting..my dark brown almost black horse has turned ginger this summer but two things have changed this year..one I havent put a fly rug on and two she stopped eating her vits and mins..i was wondering if it was the vits and mins too..it does promote a glossy coat. Shes always been very...

yep I would just check again tomorrow and work quietly a few days and monitor it but stop as soon as there is any sign of heat or pain. I wouldnt get the vet unless they were hopping and it could be fractured or it was near the knee. If it does flare up ice it then field rest a couple of weeks...

i totally recommend equine answers premierflex ha..my horse has completely transformed!

ive fed mine on this for 6 years and she has a very shiny coat but in the ladt month she has suddenly refused to eat it!! im now deciding if i will go down the pro hoof route or not bother!

I use premier flex plus which is the one with devils claw in it. I also use the one without. I noticed a huge difference between the too..amazing :)

someobe call the rspca..i quite happily would just tack up a soggy horse and ride as long as I have a numnah underneath which is probablt filthy! Id warm my horse up the same way, if they were coming in cold and wet then I would be cursing myself for not having rugged my horse suitably..surely...

I mainly hack now since my horse was diagnosed with spavins and couldnt cope with schooling but after a year of solid hacking she is now able to school and jump again so I do this maybe once/twice a week and hack between 1-4 hours the other 4/5 times!

mines a tb x cob (presumably welsh) she loves jumping and is fairly bold. temperment mind varies...lately shes found fifth gear and wants to do everything at speed, shes sweet to handle and willing to please but just gets a little opinionated at times and lukes to bog off with me!

mines very handy for puling gates shut and keeping cars away from my stirrups :)

ah yes, hacking great down that bit. wickwar itself is rubbish if you have to hack on the road!

wickwar is rubbish for hacking! Horton/badminton ace. alveston/almindsbury also good. frampton/winterbourne do have bridleways but those roads would make hacking a bit hairy and would put me off. If you go chipping sodbury way you can hack to badminton as well as hinton/dyrham. PM me if you want...

i put mine on premierflex ha in summer which helped but became stiffer in winter so tried the plus version which is the same but with devils claw. I now have a very strong, fast pingy horse back which im having to learn to control again after 2/3 years of ploddy, resitant horse!
