That's why I don't turn mine away!! I was clever this year and loaned one out to a hunting friend for the summer (her mare is out of action), so is keeping him fit for me....!

My problem is I have never really given him time off before...he always used to compete in the spring/summer so was kept fit all year. Last year he had a two week holiday but this year i thought...poor old buggar he's done 10 seasons with me so deserves a proper holiday...and now i can't get going again!!
Maybe we should have a joint fitness program.
(Plus i also forgot how dull walk work is!)
I plan to ride out tonight........

same here... don't turn them out, just let them take it easy for a bit and hack about. Works much better as they get older to keep them going. Ron is 17 and has never been better - his legs are just about ok for hunting, just needs some fast work to be there in time for opening meet.
