Right guys we need to help someone

[kirstykate]

Just read a thread that poor Gingerwitch is laid up with no telly

I think we need to keep her amused

 

[Klix]

A hanging swede should do the trick? Or foxs chocolate biscuit?

 

[kirstykate]

Maybe a mirror!!!

 

[Jesstickle]

apples in her water bucket?

A treat ball?

 

[Finn]

Or a treat ball

 

[Buds_mum]

If all else fails I would recommend 1 and 1/2 ACP in her morning brew

 

[Archangel]

Oh dear, what is her quality of life like? Would pts be kinder?

 

[Buds_mum]

Gingerwitch do you have plenty of forage?! Maybe rationed out in three or four piles and several meal times....?

RebelRebel. Pts?? She hasn't had a chance we could put her on preloved as a fantastic companion if her ridden life is over?!

 

[Irishbabygirl]

There's worse fate then pts imo!

Jeeze forgot about that we cant have her getting ulcers

 

[Mince Pie]

IS she laminitic? If not we can hide lots of apples, carrots and polos in her haynets?

 

[kirstykate]

Dont think she has seen this yet

I dont know the poor girl but I think assuming her ridden life is over is a bit harsh!!!

 

[kirstykate]

Long term box rest

 

[BillyBob-Sleigh]

Space hopper

 

[kirstykate]

Now that would be funny with her leg in a pot

 

[Elsbells]

Now that would be funny with her leg in a pot

I'm concerned now..Is she cross tied?

 

[kirstykate]

I'm concerned now..Is she cross tied?

She might be to keep her immobile

 

[Bobbly]

Maybe she needs muzzling to prevent over eating and possible founder?

 

[Gingerwitch]

My husband hopes my ridden life is over - think he is praying for that !

Sorry just had to get to the facilities.. it takes FOR EVER-

I am a bit of a good doer at the moment so i am not allowed any chocolate or BOOZE - and anyways booze slows down the healing process.

Its the digi box that has gone all i get is that horrid pattern - but i have been watching it - and trying to make patterns - but think i got a headache coming on !

husband is seconding pts ! he has already seen a replacement modle - much younger and needs bringing on !

 

[Archangel]

We could start a fund to buy her a TV, £2,000 ought to do it and the money could come directly to me *rubs hands together*
Then I could have her pts and keep the telly
*runs*

lmao! Sorry, I know it's not funny really but your comment did make me chuckle (get well soon)

If gw is a good doer we should test for cushings. I recommend toast in a trickle net. If husband is pushing for pts & no more riding perhaps he could try regumate to put gw on a more even keel? Failing that, if gw has good lines there could be a future as a broodmare.

 

[kirstykate]

Broodmare sounds like a good idea, depends on weather the injury has been caused by confirmation or maybe there are more serious underlying issues

 

[Gingerwitch]

Little legs - do you not think i am a bit old for a first foal ? 40++ ??? and with a dodgie leg what about the extra weight?

And the hubby has said many times that the temperment is not ideal - so would you really condone breeding ?

 

[Brightbay]

Vets are far to quick to recommend box rest these days, IMO. Get her out and moving, I say

Easy starvation patch and a muzzle

Temperamental mare easily dealt with, would depend on what she has done in her competitive career

 

[Littlelegs]

Injury, temperament, age aren't important, a uterus is the only important requirement. And don't worry about whether oh has been graded either, provided he isn't gelded he can serve. If you aren't that alluring with a dodgy leg then get a teaser in.
