about your horse(s) what would it be? I dont mean major thing like transform it into a different horse or something!

Bolly- I would love to change the fact that he never gets a really thin summer coat, i hate having to clip him nearly every month of the year to keep him cool!!

Saha- I would love to change the fact that no matter what we do her mane still insists on sticking up!!

4 year old (yet to be naned)- hmm hard as only had him a month, so would prob just change his tail, would like it to grow thicker, but it might do one day!

So come on what would you change? ? ?
 
her stubborness!!! why can't she just do what I ask when I ask it, not 15 minutes later after we have had a huge battle of wills

James - His age maybe, make him a spritely young thing again or his 'dangly' front lets that never left the show jumps up!

Muffin - make her 14.2 instead of her piddly 13.2hh!

Yes if we could chage there heights, and ages we could all of kept our ponies and saved money by not having to buy another horse!!
 
Senza i would like her to maintain her weight!! She is a nightmare for keeping weight on and i am dreading winter!! Also i would like her to stop bucking in her stable and putting holes in the wall

Her inability to be calm and sensible in a dressage arena

I've given up trying now and jump her instead (which she is pretty good at!).
All I have ever wanted to do is a half decent Prelim but nope.... she just cannot concentrate on me for more than 2 seconds. Works fine at home though! Siiiigh......
 
Fen - wish he didnt have arthritis and have more weeks of walk & trot only when hes desperate to get on the stubble

Rosie - wish she was as good as she has been recently, all the time!! can i wish she had cheaper shoes too?! :-) not eggbars and equipak...
 
I would change Ryu so he was more independant, ie hack out alone, go in the field alone.

I would change Bails to be 10 years younger, if he was we'd have so much fun!
 
I would like sidney to have better feet, not so flat, and Ru I would like to straighen the twist to one of her front legs and in doing so remove the pidgen toes.
 
I would not change anything because then he would not be the horse I enjoy. If his temperament and personality changed he would not be the same and have taught me so much...and he is gorg to look at in all his black, hairy welshiness so that has to stay too!!! Perhaps I can't see his flaws because he is my baby!!!!
 
Urm....I have no idea what i would change about Hemir.....I love him just the way he is, with all his little quirks and the fact one day he's not scared of something next day he is, it keeps me on my toes

And now that we have sorted out his feet they are gettting better and growing strnger

I would like to take away the pain he must be in right now though

Cybele.. I'd make her sound again
Tills... I'd wipe her memory of all the abuse she's had in the past.
Rage... I'd probably get him hooves of better quality (about 100x better since we bought him, but still a little bit dodgy!)
Boo..... I'd get her too chill a bit, instead of completely boiling over everytime we go anywhere!
 
I would like Baron not to nap, then he would be my perfect horse.

Well hes perfect (im my eyes) already but that would make him even more perfect

I would probably change Jerry's height - if he was one hand shorter and be 16hh instead of a lanky 17hh then getting on and off would be easier! I'd also like him to be fatter!!
 
For Heidi to be sound again. She's been lame and on box rest since March due to a tendon sheath/annular ligament injury. Only just coming into work again now, verrrrrrry sloooooowly!

I'm really scared that it will flare up again the next time we do proper schooling/jumping but won't know 'til we try.

The only other thing I'd want to change long term (as the injury fingers crossed is "short" term) is for her to be less aloof and more affectionate. I'm sure she's only in it for the carrots- at least that's the impression she gives!

I'd love her to canter over to me in the field (rather than keep on munching 'til I get to her!).
 
I would like Drum to not need hogginh and his hairy legs clipped all the time, oooo and a self pulling tail and to be stain resisitant so he would be white and hairfree all the time!
