my horse is currently away been broken and basic schooling, on his return however i am going to want a riding instructor to assist me in training him further. the instructor who helped with my last green horse is now retired. who o people recommend around the scunthorpe area?

Sorry I could have been clearer yes she lost quite a bit of condition last winter and you could see the cold was getting to her for the first time, she never used to thank me for bringing her in or rugging her up, although this time she was reluctant to stay out and didn't attempt to take her...

My Mare turned 21 last month. Shes already being retired for a couple of years due to severe arthritis in her hind leg. until recently shes not looked any older than 14 though. she has always lived out in the summer and then been brought in at night during the winter with unlimited hay and...

In a fortnights time I will be moving my boy to a yard closer to home. The journey is only 20 minutes at most, however he's very easily spooked and panics. I brought him roughly the same distance to where he is now and after a quick 5 minute stress when first in the box he travelled fine...
