We're really sorry but we're having to cancel all riding lessons this afternoon - the thermometer in the arena is reading 30°C which is too hot for the horses to work in and their welfare will always take priority. Enjoy the sunshine 😀

It's been a busy and expensive time for us behind the scenes lately and our veterinary bills are rapidly climbing, so as much as we hate to ask for help, we are feeling the need to do so!
Since we lost Merlin 4 weeks ago following weeks of treatment, two of our other boys have also needed hospital stays and regular checks when they are home, we have several horses on long term medication and we have also recently wormed the entire herd, which cost several hundred pounds alone!
Walter, who a lot of you will know as one of our permanent residents and the biggest of our riding school horses, had to have surgery last November to remove tumours from a very sensitive part of his body... Since then he has never been quite right and although he looks fantastic and is eating, drinking and as athletic as usual, he has been suffering regular colic-like episodes. There doesn't seem to be any pattern to them, and they subside as quickly as they come on, but he is in pain and distress each time it occurs. After a few vet visits, the cause couldn't be found, he has recovered well from his surgery and his bloods are all normal. He went in to have a scope, internal examination and ultrasound scans to look as far inside his digestive system as possible, and it was found he had some small stomach ulcers which we have since been treating. However, he has continued to have the same sporadic episodes and last week returned to the vets for further examinations and tests which we are waiting for results from. In the meantime, he is also off work, which means he is unable to help raise money by taking part in lessons as he normally would. We are hoping a cause and/or solution can be found soon, as Walter currently needs regular checks 24hrs per day and otherwise seems very well.
Little Charlie is one of the lucky ones who has found a new home to go to as a children's pony, but his move had to be delayed after his last dental check, when it was found that he had some issues with several molars which needed specialist treatment. So Charlie has also been transported to the vet where he had to have a tooth removed and fillings placed in a couple of others. He is also recovering well, but has needed a weekly vet check since his surgery to ensure he's healing properly. His next one is on Wednesday and we are hoping he will be passed fit to go to his new home then 🤞
While our horses are of course worth every penny it takes to keep them happy and healthy and we will always make sure they get everything they need, their daily living costs have also risen dramatically in recent months and their veterinary care doesn't come cheap! If you are able to help at all with any small donation, it would take some of the pressure off and we and the animals would be very grateful! If each follower gave just £1 each it would more than cover the cost of their treatment and transporting them backwards and forwards, so every little really does help! Thank you for your continued support, it really means a lot and makes a difference ❤️
