Turned horse out at 11am this morning, went to feed and poo pick at 5pm and there was no poo to pick :confused: He ate his tea, had a drink (normal), had a wee (normal) and wandered off to graze...

Would you worry about this? He was normal this morning (stabled last night) and on our hack.

I can wander down to his field again and check later, I might have just missed it as the grass is very long in his paddock, but I did walk up and down a few times. Just thinking colic here :o
 
If it were id go down and check a bit later just for my own peace of mind if anything. If he still hasnt pooed id think about calling the vet personally
 
Hmmmm those were my thoughts too Ginger_Nut - not like him at all, perhaps I should bring him in as I can guarantee as soon as he is on the yard he will **** for England :p

Think I'll have a wander down now....
 
It's amazingly easy to miss poo in long grass. Think I would go have another check.

JoG, is that an Irish Water Spaniel in your siggy?
 
Ditto your thoughts, unless someone else has poo-picked for you?!

At our yard? Never :D:D:D
 
What? No poo-picking fairies?! Must be the recession.... ;) :D

DM - nope sorry, she's a Sprocker with proper crazy hair and an aversion to brushes! :D:D
 
I'd be willing to hire out my OH, who will poo pick for you whilst you ride - with out moaning might i add!
 
What you need Gazey, is a Poop-Seeking Spaniel:D

LOL :D I was quite surprised that Amy didnt oblige, but even just now I came across it first and the dogs were dawdling behind :D

Only people with dogs and horses can be concerned about whether they have pooed or not.....:o:D:D
