https://randrcountry.co.uk/collections/gfs/products/gfs-leather-training-roller Has anyone got this and could tell me if it’s worth the money?

Can anyone recommend a decent lunge roller? Want one with the padded panels to keep off the spine. Don’t really want a webbing one, would prefer leather or other material as webbing seems to rub him. Also has anyone replaced the girth part to use an elasticated short girth instead of the girth...

Ok great thanks that sounds like it might be same thing my boy has then. I found this online which explains what could cause them, https://schleese.com/saddle-fit-and-bumps-and-blisters/ would make sense if saddle was too wide and now fits well? I tried a friends saddle on him which fitted...

Thankyou, sorry don’t seem to be able to get photo to work! Perhaps it might work this time, it’s hard to see in pic anyway because of his colouring. I had thought perhaps heat lumps but it even comes up if not hot and I am only walking so not sure!

I think I may see if I can borrow a saddle from a friend and see if that makes any difference

This sounds very similar to how my boy is, the lumps are definitely down the gullet channel and not being touched by the saddle ? only trouble is they’ve been coming up now for around 3 months now, sometimes worse than others so worried they are not going to go away. The saddler did mention...

Hope this photo works

Hi everyone, I have had my saddle around 3 years and it’s a second hand silhouette gp which I have had regularly checked with no issues until recently. I have always used sheepskin lines saddle pads. Horse started having small lump on spine behind withers, saddler thought it was sitting too...

Yes I have one for sale for 8500, 54 plate Vauxhall movano, it is sold subject to collection but I can let you know if it doesn't sell!

Not a chance for kissing spines, a lot of the time the steroid injections are short lasting and get less effective each time! I don't know enough about shivers to comment on that, and sarcoids would depend on the location! I would rather buy something that was green than something with issues...

About 50/50 with mine, I have had him coming up 5 years and he has taken a lot of getting to know, both on the ground and ridden. I could never sell him as he has mental and physical issues and I doubt anyone else would want to pander to his ridiculous needs :P I suspect he has probably got pssm...

I would swap the hifi for alfa a molasses free

In her mind you tried to take food off her which a lot of horses do not take kindly to. I would simply let her eat in peace and take the bucket away once she has finished and moved away and I doubt you will have a problem

Both, I soak his hay and put half in a hay bar and half in a low net. Would like to put all in a hay bar but he eats it too quickly, plus having it in 2 places slows him down a bit as he goes between the 2 :)

i switched from BHS this year due to price and they offer pretty good discount on everything on their website :) I do like to support the BHS but at half the price it was a no brainer, sorry bhs! :(
