Free to a good home

[Hovis_and_SidsMum]

One v large messy, dirty kneed, dusty maned cyldie gelding full of the joie de vie.
Useful if the new owner knits as the amount of hair he is currently shedding could be used to provide Hovis hair blankets to most of the southern hemisphere.
Helpful if the new owner enjoys sitting upon a ramaging tank with no brakes, no steering and a permanent desire to prove big hairy horses can go at warp speed. Rest assured there is no malicious intent but this doesn't help after circuit number 4 of the field....
Doubly helpful if the new owner has eyes in the back of their head to spot the stealing of coats, jumpers, grooming equipment, other horses dinner or anything else not pinned down.

Anyone elses beasties feeling very very well at the moment? I wouldn't mind but the spring grass isn't even coming through yet..................

aww you dont mean it

yup I know someone else who seems to think he is the bees knees atm...... trouble is I quite like the extra energy and know it will completely disappear as soon as they get out for the summer full time.

Had to read this as it said Free and I like free things.....

Thanks though it just made me laugh!

And yes my woolly beasties are all nutters at the moment - must be the thought of the spring grass - Heaven help us when it does come through!!

I'm another who has a hairy beast shedding like a thing possessed. Brushed her yesterday and the hair was coming out by the brush load and afterwards she looked like she hadn't been touched


Going to use the shedding blade today although I suspect I will still end up wearing more of her hair then she is

Haha mine has gone the opposite as well at the moment! Rather chilled... but if its any concellation most of the ponies on our yard have been having bad moments over the past week - one dumped owner on fence, two bucked owners off and one shot foward and friend of owner fell straight off...... poor kids!!

I have a TB mare that is producing enough hair to knit with..... too, and as for feeling well..... gawd help me!!

Will Hovis himself be confessing to his antics on Friday? Although I doubt whether even Hovis would confess in writing to being a thief!

My normally well behaved and calm mare (17 years old) has taken to being a proper little madam recently, we had bunny hopping in the car park at a competition yesterday and a loverly half pass across the arena even though i hadnt asked for it follwed by hop skip and a jump then general showing off! But wouldnt life be boring if they behaved all the time!?! oh and while we were waiting to go into the class she managed to get hold of a dust bin next to her, pick it up and throw it at some woman stood nearby!

Ours are pretty playful at present, but the cantering endlessly I think is a 'Big Horse' thing. I recently rode a 17.2 shire in a school and it was quite apparent that he loves to canter.....FAST. Six paces end to end in the school and two on the short side! On the plus side, at that size it is such a relaxed canter, you can just sit there and enjoy the ride, rather like sitting on top of a raging bull elephant! Or in Hovis's case, a wooly mammoth.
