My sister admitted to me that each night when she is mucking out she thinks about how amazing it would be to have even a 60sec conversation with her horse! I couldn't think what I would say/ask mine especially when they would only have a short time to reply! I would maybe tell him stuff rather than ask!! What would you talk about/say/ask?!
 
I'd tell her I love her, but I think she already knows that. I'd probably ask her if she's happy and whats so different about about little cob to any other horse in the world as she seems to have no desire to kill it...
 
Please lunge, why won't you lunge? (I did actually say this to her tonight)

Please can we try having your muzzle off without you gorging yourself so much that you get a poorly tummy? You need to work out that if you were better at self regulating you woudn't have to wear that thing.

Are you aware that I love you more then anything and you've changed my life? You're stuck with me forever you obstinate cob.

What can I do to make your life even better - what do you need from me?
 
I would explain to my Welsh D that when I let him go to his loaner I had no idea she would abuse him and leave him horrifically injured & starving, dying in a stable and that the livery yard owner would help her hide him, with him having to spend 6wks in equine hospital, undergoing 2 GAs, and ending up on life treatment.
I would tell him I thought he'd be treated like a king, and how desperately sorry I am that I sent him there and the guilt makes me sick EVERYDAY, and I will NEVER EVER get over it. I would ask him how I can ease his pain (if we can) or should we let him go. I would tell him I'll do anything for him and I will carry on with treatment or let go if that's what he wants.
I will ask his forgiveness. I want him to know I love him.
 
Oh Welsh :( sorry to hear that love, please don't blame yourself for the actions of another. There are some horrible people out there but I bet he is just pleased to be back with his mummy and enjoying life as it is now, the two of you together x x x
 
Omg welsh that's heart breaking!! I wish ur horse could hear that!:(

I'd ask mine if he was happy (he's newish) and tell him that he should trust me cos I wud never hurt him/put him in dangerous situations etc. would also tell him that I love him lots and if he kept his stable cleaner I'd give him a massive fluffy bed!!

Wouldn't ask my sisters horse if he was happy cos its obv he is! She would tell him that if he promised never to run away and to be careful she would let him free range about the place so he could nosey and investigate! He's an old man and he what he doesn't know isn't worth knowing so he would love to do that :)

Oh we can wish lol
 
oh welsh that is heart breaking, i wish your poor boy could hear that but i think actions speak louder than words your care and fight for him is enough :(

i would just ask her if there was anything she was unhappy about and what she wants me to do, what she doesn't like. she's just so placid i worry if i would notice if there was a problem i have all the usual checks done but somedays if she does something out of the ordinary i think OMG she must be in pain, completely over react and then panic about everything and worry I'm doing everything wrong. i'd also ask her to come up with a sign for her to tell me when there is a problem when we can't chat
 
Aw Welsh! So sorry to hear that! Some people are so wicked. I am sure though that your boy does know that you love him- don't beat yourself up. You have the future together now.

I would tell Stanley that I can't believe my luck that I found him. I would thank him for his patience and apologise for some of the clumsy mistakes I make - so that he knows none of them are his fault. I would also tell him how proud I am to be his "mum".
 
I have 'conversations' with my horse all the time :D

I was having a most entertaining one yesterday when I looked up only to realise I wasn't the only one on the yard as I'd previously thought :eek: :o

This sounds like me - today I suddenly realised that people could probably hear me as I stood in the lunge ring as the pony hurtled round bucking and motorbiking yelling "I spent £70 on physio for you this week and this is how you repay me!"
 
I'd ask my white pony why he's a miserable git in the stable and why he has to get covered in ***** every night and I'd ask my welshie to poo in the corner instead of 8 elephant poo's all over the floor (and that's after I poo pick at 9pm!) and not to be so spooky out hacking so I don't get cross with him!

Yep. We had just finished a discussion about why trying to squish the dentist was not appropriate :cool:
