Whats the best horsey thing you have that you couldn't live without ?

[Porkie]

Whats your best horsey buy ? or thing you have that you just couldn't live without ???

Mine is actually not a 'thing' so much but ...... my close horsey friends. Just couldn't do without them!! They are the most valuble thing I have!!

Apart from that its my decahedron (sp?) ball, my horse loves his apples and carrots in that of a evening, its his nightime treat and won't settle if I don't put it in before I leave!!!

Anything made of Thermatex and Jaguar dressage saddles.

 

[teapot]

with the current weather & only being able to ride in outdoor arenas - my musto snug. Have worn it in monsoon like rain and still been dry underneath

 

[Nari]

U Gard Plus by Equine America, it's the only thing that drastically reduces Jim's cribbing (I hesitate to say "stops" but it's very very rare to see him do it nowadays).

 

[charlie76]

Nari- how much is U gard?

I love my Isabel Werth Dressage saddle and lycra hoods in the winter.

 

[xxcharlottexx]

does the actual horse count

i cant choose just one... though i do have rather a large collection of fugs so its probably rugs lol I just love seeing him all snug and wrapped up in winter

 

[WallisM]

The one thing I have to........DERMOBION..............

My Rambo Duo rug- I LOVE it! Even more with the weather we've been having lately.
I put it on him the other morning when he was soaking wet and shivering (thermatex was in the wash), when I came to check on him a few hours later he was bone dry and snuggly, as was the rug- it's amazing!

U-Gard is £59.90 for a tub that lasts 40 days (but they recommend double dosing for the first 60 days). It is a bit pricey but it's the only thing that works for him.

 

[Alibear]

My Rice Richardson trailer, cost £3k 8 years ago , had never ever let me down and only cost me £500 on maintenance in that time. Tows like a dream and never had a horse refuse to go on it (she says not having tried new boy on i yet)

Couldn't live with out my horse or very supportive oh.
Other than that, my equimats are fantastic. Also love pikeur breeches and my ariat boots. Also pasture mix (Mickey lives off it) and Extraflex HA (feedmark joint supp).

 

[Bess]

Of course the horse comes first, but I love my Ariat Glazier boots in the winter, they keep my feet so warm and dry, his Horsewear Ireland H/W t/o rug and my Mark Todd breeches.

 

[Halfstep]

My lovely Ideal 1650 Dressage saddle!

And my Bucas heavyweight full neck rug which my horse lives in (in stable and field) all winter, never rubs or moves and rarely needs anything under it.

My Ariat boots and chaps as I wear them every single day of my life, they are the most comfortable things to ride in ever, and although they have gone through three zips and look a bit battered they are still going strong!

 

[Bex7]

My Ozvet sun cream. He burns like a beggar and this is the only stuff he cannot wipe off. Also my Dublin Empress jacket. Sooo warm it i unbelievable.

 

[fireduplee]

my oster grooming kit, just love it.

 

[Gentle_Warrior]

a dog brush, for his rather thick mane

 

[Jackie_L]

I've got different things for different horses! For my sweet itch pony its got to be his Boett blanket. For my cob its my treeless saddle - soooo comfy and for my mini its just him cus he's so sweet!!!

 

[Coffee_Bean]

My horse

But also purple spray is great as she always comes in with all sorts of nicks! And um....... My human brush and baby oil, great for getting knots out of her tail and mane.....and my pink things

 

[Christmas_Kate]

Can I choose more than one?

rhino wug... we have been through some rugs, and this is the only one which keeps him dry AND he hasnt wrecked. when it's muddy I simply hose it down and it stays water tight.

two metal curry comb things, one is long with metal teeth, the other three circles of metal blades... they're fab for muddy coats, and for getting moulting coats out.

 

[Twilight]

My water proof wrap around exercise sheet. Keeps me and him warm and dry on those cold winter hacks. Makes life in winter soo much more pleasant for us both.

 

[Nuttymanxmare]

My Rambo Duo rug and my posh ariat boots

 

[SpruceRI]

Canter Mail & Tail Shine for knotty tails.

American curry comb - that spikey round metal thing that xxKatyxx talks about!

Wither bag for carrying (bait) horse treats to catch 'monster munch' (Shetland pony) when we're out hacking, and my sandwiches of course!
