That's one fat horse........

OP, fwiw, I don't remember the little chestnut mare in the original thread. However, I do remember a mare named Flaxen, but it might have been on KC's website, not on HHO.
 
I believe that the mare in the video has been referred to in the Watchdog thread, I am too lazy to check whether it is the same poster or not but the mare, Flaxen, was mentioned when a poster on that thread was praising David and his business after buying said mare.

Frankly I believe that the mare is in foal, and it made me uncomfortable to watch an apparently heavily pregnant mare laboring around the field like that.

I didn't see the Watchdog video, but I did read the thread that was generated by it. Yes, I think that's where I saw the name Flaxen.

I, too, found it quite unsettling watching the mare cantering around that field.
 
Sprite - another link, to their site, better pics, though they still look like they've been taken with a potato...

She's also £500 now...I'm pretty sure she was more than that the first out of MANY times i've seen her advertised. More in the £1-2k range I think?
 
How veeerrry veeerrry ODD :p oops, sorry I spoke. Co-jack has already dismissed my response because I'm NOT THE OP :D

Yes, poor lumbering overweight mare :( do you suppose it's the one Co-jack bought ?

Rather ironically named poor thing. Dumpling would suit her better :D

No she bought a pregnant, worm infested? overweight mare with mites but thought it was a pretty good deal :rolleyes:

I ave just read the watchdog thread (again) and when she listed all the things wrong and said it was a good deal and, pretty much, said "what else could you ask for" I did think... A horse without any of those... much like most cared for horses that are for sale...

I know that none of mine have come with those conditions... therefore not a horse worth £2500, as I've bought others that are that much and have no ailments what so ever :p

Haha yes she actually said she thought she should have paid more:eek: And when i questioned this i was told its people like me who puts them on dinner plates or something...hmm
 
Having read Mr D Thomas comments on Kelly cobs thread I'm sure he's quite capable of convincing someone that nits mites and worms are perfectly normal for a horse and confer huge health benefits and as such are an additional bonus. :p
 
oohhhhhh feelig a little bit human guys xxxx

my mum...... looks like she's got a firework stuck up a frogs arse xx

Blimey! I have read some truly bizarre stuff on here, but that has to be one of the most random:eek:

Think you should probably put down the bong, eh? :rolleyes:
 
sorry bout the post from my very immature daughter who was up late not feeling well and should not have responded in that way:o.

Anyway so thank you to who answered my question.The horse in the first post was sprite.

I didn't ask for anyone's opinion, but thanks for all your lovely comments:rolleyes:

I will leave you to all to have a chat about my absolutely appalling over priced mare.
 
ahah :), she is very cute (chestnut lover here), but too fat (and possibly in foal?). As for the price, it's your money so personnally don't care how much you paid as long as you are happy with her. She does not seem to move straight possibly because of her weight so I would tackle that seriously/get vet advice. Why do you care about an old thread about fat horses?
 
What was your aim in posting this video? 10 seconds of activity, followed by years of her standing there doing nothing. Pretty dull

Still grossly overweight - you really need to do something before she gets ill
 
Yes I know she has a long way to go
the vet has advised I do the weight loss very
slowly as fast weight loss would cause more
damage than keeping Her over weight.
Vet says weight loss rate is fine and to keep
Doing what I'm doing.
Yes it was just an up date soooorrreee for raking
up an old thread!!! somebody shoot me!! How odd of me!!
