I can recommend Ed Shaw at 3 counties. Very efficient and pleasant vet with a wealth of knowledge.

the horse is near bromyard, don't know if this is out of area?

 

[milliepops]

no that would be comfortably within their area. this page shows their zones http://www.tceh.co.uk/services-visits.html (only relevant for zone days but helps to see it on the map somewhere. the clinic is near tewkesbury for reference).

we passed! small bit of mud fever size of a 50p and a fly bite, lungs and heart ok and the legs move in the right order........................now my next questioned, any good transporters the trip is just over 200 mile return to the east midlands?

 

[milliepops]

how exciting! Can't help with the transport sorry but I hope you are going to put some pics up when your new purchase arrives

i will do a before and after shot in about a month................at the moment looks like we might drop a foal but that was also checked today, no surprises there.

If you use facebook, there is a Worcestershire Horse Group with many services available including transporters.

Very best of luck with your new partner.

so............the pictures will have to wait a little bit, nothing major but for some reason the previous owners had a theory of if in doubt use clippers..............so until we have grown out...................the mullet, they clipped the whole length of the tail it now looks like an oldie aging rocker hair style and the fjord pony impression has faded a bit, how long to grow out a hog? we are definitely in the paper bag needed for polite society

but everyone at the yard is impressed, slight pressure to try for hoys, yes moves well and markings very good......we will see.
