Hi

Really hope someone can help!

I live in Goathurst, just outside Bridgwater and have my boy Finn at home. He lives out 24/7 at the moment, (we don't have stables yet) and I am desperately looking from someone who can help me out on the odd day/week - we have only just moved into the area and don't know anyone around here!

Basically, as Finn lives out, if I do have to go away for a few days with work, then Richard my other half is normally ok to pick out feet, chuck in some hay etc. However, Finn has quite a bad overreach injury that at the moment needs twice daily cleaning and bandaging - luckily he's easy enough to do, but Richard isn't really up to the challenge and time constraints mean that even if he could do it, he doesn't have the time! Hopefully by January we will be onto once daily bandaging!

I am also hoping to get a pal for Finn in the next few weeks, but until I know I have some reliable help available I can't.

There are a couple of days in December that I need someone (15-16 December), the 3-6 January when I am away on a sales conference, and then there will also be the odd weekend, day in the week etc. I anticipate my diary getting busier over the next year or so too, so I really need someone reliable that I can ring up with a few days notice and know that Richard won't be left stranded!! I will obviously pay!

Thanks for reading my post!

Try PM'ing Ester, she is really close to you and might know someone.

I'm a bit far away, but could offer you some ad-hoc part livery if you get really desperate as the lady who rents my spare stable is just about to relocate to Hampshire and I can't find a replacement.
 
Thanks for your help, and those who PM'd me, I'll give your suggestions a try!
Thanks
PS Good news... vet came out today and said we only needed to change dressing once a day now, and should be ready to have some time without dressing in 10 days or so! Whoo!
