Livery yards with horse walker/rehab

[leflynn]

Hi,

Just a quickie as it's not going to be a possible for a few weeks potentially... Daft hoss has pinged a hind tendon after being in the field following almost 12 months box rest for other injuries (fractures/suspensory diff leg). He is due to be scanned next week so I'll find out the severity then.

My lovely yard doesn't have a horse walker and YO and I came to the same conclusion that he would need to be rehabed from the box using a horse walker and very flat all weather turnout and if poss an equine hydrotherapy pool. He seems to be unable to stay in the field long enough without pinging something after box rest to get him fit enough to get back into ridden work and fittened up properly again.....

Anyone know of anything that in an ideal world has all 3 elements but if not at least a horse walker/decent indivdual turnout? As close to Rowlands gill as poss would be nice but unlikely, happy to consider most places within a few hours drive as long as they have a fab reputation for care

Thanks in advance *if you're quick there is cheesecake left*

I could get him there but it is a bit further than I'd like to take him sadly

Closest we have is an equine swimming place and also the lovely Lee Clarke http://www.thephysio-clinic.co.uk/the-equine-physiotherapy-clinic/

There is a racing yard at Morpeth they have a horse walker and do full livery and schholing and breaking full livery.... they might also therefore consider rehab livery.......

Thank you, but the ned is installed somewhere closer and is walking it out twice a day as we speak! He is even behaving himself which is even better
