My thinking exactly!!! I did not know that about seaweed- thank you! What about biotin? x

They claim she was done on the 27th August, I don't believe them. I have the farrier coming out this week. When she first went on the share/loan her feet were in excellent condition. No cracks!! My marriage broke down in May and I found it hard to find time for her. The lady who had her asked...

They have had her since may time. We were sharing. My marriage broke down and I had no time for her so they took over her care whilst I funded shoeing, livery, feed. They asked if they could have her on an official full loan at the end of July. I agreed, but then like I said, things were being...

I recently decided to put my girl on loan to people who had been sharing her. She is back with me after only a short time. I changed my mind on the loan after a few things that were said didn't add up. When I went to pick her up last weds she had sores on her face where she has been put out to...

I am feeling on edge because I know so many people have had problems with loaning their horses, I have just the recent thread on here! It would devastate me if she wasn't looked after!

The woman has requested a permanent loan- and we have agreed to do 12 monthly contracts. She has also requested a 3 month notice period. I have agreed to this but will include in the loan that I can remove her without notice if I feel she isn't being looked after. I will miss her so much. I...

Thanks for your reply. I love Libby so much- feeling devastated that it has come to this, but I don't want to see pushy! xx

I am currently going through a very bad break up and divorce. I have had to leave my home, most of my animals- my heart has been shattered. Liberty has kept me going through everything but with all that is happening I am starting to lack the time and funds for her. I have thought long and...

appaloosa anybody????

LOL!!!!! That is so funny!!! Showed OH who also proceeded to wet themselves laughing!!!!

have PM'd you :)

She's generally very good, moody and mareish when in season.....

Last winter was my first winter owning Libby, I knew from her previous owner that she was prone to mud fever and boy was she right. It was awful. I became obsessive with cleaning her legs, plastering her in aqueous cream etc...... It didn't get better, if anything it got worse. This year I...

she really really is lol :p

not much today.... went up this evening, bought her in (was kicked in the process :rolleyes:), mucked out and fed her. And then spent the next 2 hours packing up all her rugs, bits and pieces and loading them all in the car cos we move yards tomorrow :D:D:D

owwie!!! Got to the yard this evening and went straight up to the field to bring Libby in. Put her head collar on and led her out of the paddock. We then had to walk through the front field to get back to the stable block. Libby had other ideas :rolleyes:, we started off walking nicely, then...

I walked Libby out the other day for a change, was approached by old ladies who insisted on stroking her and muttering "she must be frightened" and "poor thing" :confused: I was just stood there think "oook I am standing here you know", Libby didn't seem to mind the attention, we then had the...

Libby does the same, loves them so much she eats them within a few hours!!! She only has them on her birthday now :rolleyes:

So glad you said that, I have know libby since she was 3 (shes nearly 8 now), and have owned her nearly 2 years, she has always been prone to awful mud fever. Last winter I became obssesed with keeping her legs clean, putting cream on her sore bits etc, and it never improved- at all! This year...

Libs does the same lol

Erm, seriously?? Libby has a clean, thick, cosy bed of straw everyday before she comes in and when I turn her out in the morning she always has a pee or poo stain where she has laid, can't exactly stand there all night picking out wet and pooy bits of bed evertime they pass anything!

Libby has been known to untie herself, mooch around the yard, rummage through a bag or two and occasionally steal someones cup of tea that has been left somewhere :D She also makes it her job to empty wheel barrows (usually when they have just been filled and in an inappropriate place...

Baby Grey is stunning!!!! Rugs can no longer be left in Libbys stable..... she pulls them down, wees on them and then buries them in the straw :eek: :rolleyes: :p Naughty pony :D

Thanks, he really is lol! He has been known to cause allsorts of trouble over the years, today my friend went to turn him out (he was stabled) only to find he had done it himself :rolleyes: :D Thank you, yup defiantely a bonus, he is such a dude :)

My plans for Jack are to break him to drive.... Jack is a little monkey, he is an angel to hack but as for schooling- that's a no no. He will ditch his rider no matter what and has been ask to leave numerous shows! Including the Thelwell class :eek: He has been to many loan homes and been...

Libby likes to help :rolleyes:

Meet Jack who after next week could be my new pony :D He is 11.1hh, 8 years old and totally gorgeous! Very naughty!!!! But thats why everyone loves him :rolleyes: He belongs to a friend who after loaning out several times has decided to sell, I had him on loan last winter and love him so...

Yes very, after reading your thread I shall never ride hatless.... really not worth the risk!

Today I arrived at the yard, saddle and bridle in tow. I groomed the mare and tacked up only to realise I had forgotten my hat..... :rolleyes: very annoying! Anywho I actually debated riding out without it, after several minutes I woke up, told myself to stop being so silly and we walked out...

can I ask what area you are in? Sounds so similar to my experience at a yard I left 12 months ago....
