Horse wont get up

The bridle is cob sized my mum got it off ebay it has pink reins and a sparkly noseband and browband. The bit isnt pink that would look tacky. How do I contact papa frita?
 
It'll be his legs, I'll bet he's got piano legs and they have come unscrewed....he'll probably need retuning too as he may be a little horrse?
 
Good luck OP. I've exhausted all of my knowledge tonight so I hope something I have said is helpful.

Keep us posted tomorrow.

Oh, just thought of something else. How often are you mucking out? It needs to be done only once a day at the very most, more like every other day. If you keep going into the stable to muck out you will upset your horse and this could be the problem. Leave the horse alone for 48 hours, take the water away, and after 2 days offer the boy horse water outside the stable. If that doesnt work, I think you will have to seriously considered PTS. I hope it doesnt come to that though. Good luck OP. xx
 
If you look on the first page of the tackroom, there will now be a thread called 'roll up', you can contact papa frita through that.
 
Have you tried talking to him? I mean really talking to him. You will need to find an Animal Communicator, one who speaks Equineses.

Google will be your friend. :)
 
He is only 4 so a young horse maybe if he is lying down everytime you are approaching him, it is his way of telling you something about your weight?

Are you sure that he is a suitable breed and height for you body type to put it politely?
 
Oh dear...

I feel your pain.. I have a girl horse who won't come out of the stable either.. I'm not sure if its because she's bay or if she got offended at the blue saddle pad I bought her instead of pink? :rolleyes:

Never mind I just won't give her any food or water.. Eventually she will have to come out for food and water right?!!!

:D :p :rolleyes:
 
what was his history before you got him? if he was a super model for equine catalogues then theres ur answer, some of em wont get outta bed for less than £10k
 
ffionwinnie, I use to have cows they bless them went and met their maker a few years ago and yours is a truly rare breed:D. But me thinks this horse is dead and she doesn't know it.
 
sometimes are the chances better and bigger to leave where ever you are if the problem is so big (a horse which is only in a stable and dont want move out)

all other members here: Thanks for the good laugh tonight I will go asleep an dreaming about burgers .........ahhhhhhhhhhhhh....nightmare


good night everyone
 
If you weigh 10 stone, that might be the problem. Experienced riders defy gravity by halving their weight once mounted. At 10stone & in the advanced riding school class, you will feel like 5 stone.15hh angloarabs were bred to carry 40 stone men, so the solution could be chowing down the pies till you reach a more suitable weight such as 30 stone.
 
Op the honest real answer is that he must have been bought from Hilary Devey and cannot leave his stable until he has had a cup of tea and a sausage sarnie.......

Tut tut come on people its obvious!!! :rolleyes:
 
He's got the serious case of Gender crisis.. he sees you and thinks "Oh Gawd! She's gonna put that blooming girly bridle on me, and lord know's what else 'pink' she has......quick! I have a headache pose!"...
 
He may also have had lessons off these guys before you bought him..

AW Glasgow's not that bad.
Of course, I have girl horse, that lives in a field and NEVER lies down.

You need to find the money for a REAL carrot stick. That will get your horse out its stable!
