My little miracle pony at the age of 21.
Iv owned Milo since he was 6 years old and we have had so many adventures together. From living in Wiltshire with me while I studied my Level 3 Equine management to coming with my on my ventures setting up a livery yard in 2020 and then again in 2022! not to mention the amount of red ribbons he’s bought me home to !
5 years to the month this one fractured his stifle in a field accident, we nearly lost him.
3 months after winning me the leading rider of the year 2019.
Was devastating to think he would never be up to doing what he use to which was flying around the showjumping ring but he was still with us and that’s all that mattered.
He’s been enjoying a quieter life with the odd hack but he’s been feeling very full of life and he’s showing me he’s still got some more to give !

This pony has bounced back from many injuries in our 15 year partnership, from tendon injuries , missing the top part of hip bone , severing is pasterns numerous times , he even had hind suspensory breakdown when he first arrived as a 6 year old after coming across youtube footage of this poor lad jumping 1.10m as a 3yr old 🫠

This pony beats all the odds and he never stops trying to thrive ! he’s a pony of a life time and as long as he’s happy i’m going to try my best to rehab this boy back into some more work and see how it goes ; I know this pony in and out and will know when enough is enough for him. OH Milo Moo- time to get your strong 💪💕

Not what the doctor ordered …. week 2 of being ‘non’ weight bearing …. going well 👀.

But needed my riding / horsey fix . Us horse people understand right 🤣?

Fracture clinic tomorrow then hoping I can get back to it , the quiet life isn’t for me. But had chance to get more organised and reflect how much I miss it when I can’t 🖤

Yard visit from Mia Hanton Veterinary Physiotherapy yesterday - 6 horses on the yard had a treatment from Mia and now some exercises and stretches to do inbetween sessions to ensure the horses are feeling as good as they can!

Prince enjoyed his home massage and laser treatment followed by electromagnetic pulse therapy to help his sore shoulders ( from playing to much ball ) ! 🥎

📍Don’t forget to keep an eye out for some more Strengthening and conditioning clinics over the summer months 📍

Be kind 🐝

To the owner whose horse is stabled - you work so hard to ensure your horses needs are met so they can live in comfort, thank you for your dedication!

To the owner whose horse lives out - your horse is fortunate to have an owner that can provide them the space to roam and graze as nature intended!

To the owner who rugs their horse - they will be so warm and cozy under their blanket, and less grooming means more time to ride!

To the owner of the unrugged horse - their coats are fascinating how they adapt to the weather, aren’t they?!

To the rider who wears cheap riding leggings and rubber boots – good for you…. you know that your horse couldn’t care less what you are wearing!

To the ‘all the gear and no idea’ rider - wow! You look incredible, your horse has everything it could ever wish for! You don’t have to be a grand prix rider to wear matchy-matchy. Go, you!

To the rider who rides once in a while – brilliant! It is so difficult to fit horses in around the rest of our lives. It’s great that you make the time to do the most that you can with your horse!

To the rider who never rides their horse – no problem. How lovely for your horse to spend its life being cuddled, groomed and grazing in the fields, you must have a wonderful relationship!

To the rider who rides everyday – go for it! Your dedication is admirable and your horse is benefiting from training and fitness. Well done!

To the happy hackers - you are living the dream of millions! What an honour to share such adventures with such extraordinary animals!

To the barefoot fanatic – I admire your passion. Barefoot is the best option for many horses. It is wonderful that you are trying to improve your horse’s comfort and foot health!

To the owner of the traditionally shod horse – fantastic! Shoes are the best option for many horses. It’s great to know that your horse’s feet are protected from the surfaces that we ask them to work on!

To the rider who trains with every professional and expert going – brilliant. What a wealth of knowledge and expertise you have access to!

To the self-taught rider – you must be so proud. What an achievement!

To the professional rider – you inspire me. Your results and rosettes are impressive. They are not won without hard work, commitment, sacrifice and talent. You deserve your success!

To the rider who has never won anything – who cares?! Your horse doesn’t! The passion you have for your sport is worth so much more than any material!

If you want to win and have not had any luck – keep going. You will get there eventually. The hardest won successes are the sweetest!

To the owner who keeps their horse spotlessly clean, neatly trimmed and pulled – marvellous! I applaud your attention to detail. Your horse looks beautiful!

To the owner whose horse is caked in mud and has dread locks – I laugh with you! You know that horses love to roll and if you were to bath your horse today, you would find them in exactly the same mucky state again tomorrow!

As long as your horse is happy and healthy, what you do with your horse is nobody else’s business. The only time anybody should interfere is if there is a genuine equine welfare issue, a safety issue, or if you have specifically asked for advice or help. Otherwise, please let’s not judge others.

‘Each to their own,’ and if it’s good for your horse then ‘good for you!’ 🐴❤️
