I think you should tape the horse's rug down with some double sided sticky tape - the flaping of the rug probably spooked him!
Brilliant! I wonder how many calls the RSPCA got......
My mare has hair on her feet! Oh my gosh she must be terribly terribly ill! Any thoughts on what it could be?
But is there an app for the ring licking?! :eek3:
Oh dear she mugs you for treats and licks my mum's wedding ring! Could it be featherus maximus d'you think?Ah, well, it's quite difficult to tell the difference between cobbus and hobbitus. Is she mugging you for treats or licking your wedding ring? If she's mugging you it's definitely cobbus, but if she's licking your ring it's hobbitus. The trouble is that the treatment for cobbus makes hobbitus much much worse, and vice versa, so you need to be really sure before you treat her. The treatment for cobbus is to switch on your clippers and walk towards her slowly. She will shake so much that the hair will drop off, but you then need to gather up all the dropped hair and bury it under a willow tree if you want to stop it coming back.

I think featherus maximus is only found in shires and clydesdales isn't it? Does she have one of those in her breeding?

I'm up-hawled that there are folk out there actually BREEDING featherus maximuses.
I mean... why?!

Um.... eeewwww
hey my six year old has been sat on once and only jumped four foot in the air when a blade of grass touched her hoof should I sell her to a riding school as she's too quiet for me?!
Seriously though i can relate.
What is with idiots and horses?
At 18 stone you have probably grown your own padding so won't need a pillow or memory foam saddle. Crews are peeps who tip cold water over you at pit stops, and carry your sandwiches and vodka. You could ask them to take pics as well.I've just bought myself a new horse. In fact it's a pony but because it's a highland it can easily carry my 18stone. Ive bought him to do endurance as i assume he would naturally be used to hills and rocky ground so don't need to practice riding over that at home making it easy. He's 4 and has already done hacking with his breeder so he's ready to go out and I'm hoping to do that golden horseshoe thingy with him next year.
He seems quiet enough and hoping to put my 90 year old mother on her (seems only right that she should also ride him as they always behave really well for the queen and so should be totally safe). She hasn't ridden before but Im sure she will be grand.
But I keep hearing about all these "crews" on endurance rides - what are these? Are they like paparazzi?
Someone also mentioned that I'd need a super comfy saddle; but all I've seen are "tree-d" saddles. These don't sound very nice and also sound hard,, do they do pillow or memory foam ones?
If it was really expensive a bit of sellotape will suffice.Dear PF,
I accidently dropped my new and very expensive riding hat (it has lots of safety standards) and it fell apart. Will gluing it back together with some pritt stick be OK or would gaffer tape be better?
