    Loaning and sharing expectations in different countries

    Same here in Canada. I have a leaser for both of mine, no chores expected but that’s because they’re on full board. I think cost wise it’s a little more than say a normal lesson horse, but they have more flexibility of when they can ride, and also able to ride outside of a lesson.

    The new man in my life

    I thought I’d introduce Earl. He became mine yesterday 🥰 I am questioning my sanity by having 2 horses (so is the husband 🤣) but I’m at the point where I need to step up in my riding (changes etc.) that Sugar can’t do. I want to start to do some competitions next year as well. Sugar has a...

    Teaching someone to canter

    I had a very bad habit of leaning forward when asking as my brain seemed to think this helped go faster 🤷‍♀️ the horse I initially learnt on was tolerant of this, Sugar however was not and I spent a lot of time on the arena floor 🤣 not a technique I would recommend though! But I found watching...

    Loosing toe on front hooves (barefoot)

    Thanks everyone. I don’t think foot sore, we rode yesterday and all was normal. Diet wise, she has hay and then a scoop of pellets that are mineral focused. The vet told me to take her off the grain and her Step 6 as she was getting a little portly, and the feed had a lot of protein and sugar...

    Loosing toe on front hooves (barefoot)

    Hello! Looking for some ideas. My mare is barefoot but her fronts are wearing down so becoming short. I think from a combination of the arena footing, and the footing in her paddock. Farrier is now thinking she’ll need shoes and I’d like to avoid that if I can (I haven’t spoken to him directly...

    Anyone else’s horse gone mad?

    We’ve had some zoomies, she’s lost weight, back to her regular monthly massages and it’s cooler. Someone needs to remind her she’s 20!

    Mum and Dad may have gone out and not realized someone was on the balcony when we closed the door 🫣 (we were only gone for an hour)

    Turn on the forehand

    We do turn on the forehand (or forehead as I call it so I can remember what I am moving!) also turn on haunches which I am less good at, mainly because I get my left and right mixed up and often use the wrong aid combo :-( Luckily Sugar can usually figure out what I mean :-D
