New horse's rugs (not sure which one :( ) have rubbed him on shoulders :(
Any reccomendations for anti-rub vest things?

He is good thanks, settling in pretty well and bulking up fairly steadily (I will post some pics soon so everyone on here can judge though!!) although he looks a bit skanky coz of rug rub. :( He is hacking v nicely and schooling well too- he has a gawp at everything in the school before settling down to work, but the gawping is getting less extreme every time ;) The show jumping is errrr...interesting.. we haven't quite come to an agreement re speed and the fact that legs actually need to be picked up when in midair (that and the fact that he hates the noise that falling poles make- and shows his dislike by doing handstands!!)..but we'll get there :)
How is Raff coping with being bedridden? x
PS. Soz, what an essay! :o

*squeal* he's CUTE! and sounds lovely too. raff has a gawp at everything before settling (well, i have a gawp, worry and then raff gawps at whatever i'm gawping at....). but i love that about him.
and he handstands? multitalented. if you can't get him into showjumping, i'm sure a gymnastics team would take him on... ;)

raff is coping exceptionally well with being bedridden. i knew he was laid back, but jeeez, he's still surprised me by HOW laid back he actually is. he just stands there. with a slightly gormless look on his face. usually with his bottom lip hanging... yet, he doesn't seem even slightly depressed. it's been 3 weeks and 1 day now. on about day 3 he looked a bit sad, but snapped straight out of it and is back to happy yet chilled.

i think he's REALLY looking forward to having a good roll. we're a quarter of the way through cross tying time now, so that's good.

good luck with your newbie, what is his name? looking forward to many more pics. xx

He is a cutie :) he has been remarkably chilled (for a TB!) for most stuff- mane and tail pulling, a bath, adoring fans at his stable door, morning noon and night...:D Although he has a healthy amount of attitude too. ;) Not too bothered about the show jumping, he just gets a bit complacent and 'cba' when in the school- he is more than happy to hop over the XC jumps! I'm sure our instructor will sort us out. :) Afraid a gymnastic team is probably out of the question- i don't think they do leotards in 16hh size :D
Good on Raff to be being so angelic!! Now you SAY he's gormless, but he may be using the time constructively to ponder the meaning of life. :) A big hug to him from meee.
New boy's name is Cash (official name State Dilemma..my parents who are both accountants found this hilarious..) and don't worry, there will be many more pics- i'm surprised you haven't seen any, i've been bothering most parts of the forum with them quite a lot recently! :D xx
