Swipe ➡️ to see a 50kg transformation 😍👌

This lovely mare Pinot stayed with us for 2 weeks for weight loss. She swam every day and went on the walker. We built her up slowly, starting with just 2 lengths. She was up to 12 a day by the start of week 2.

We are over the moon with her transformation 👏🏼

We have some spaces coming available this week, so if you are thinking of sending your horse to us, don't hesitate to drop us a message. ☺️

Goldie 🍊

This lovely mare left us today after staying for nearly 3 weeks due to steroid induced Laminitis. She absolutely did not look the sort to get Laminitis. 😢

When she arrived, she had heat in her feet and wasn't moving brilliantly. Today, when she left, her feet were cold, and she trotted up showing great signs of improvement. She lost nearly 40kg to add. 👌

We wish Goldie and her owner Bev the best of luck with the rest of her recovery 🧡

Are you going on holiday soon and worried about leaving your horse behind? Why not book them in to stay with us. A great way to keep on top of your horses weight and fitness while you're away. 👌

We have space for June and July at the moment, but we do get booked up quickly. Please message for more information. ☺️

🏊‍♀️ Swimming for horses to help with weight loss 🏊‍♀️

📸 We’ve received these before and after photos of one of our clients, Amber, as she goes along her weight loss journey!

Amber is a beautiful Welsh Section D who, like many of us, finds it very easy to put on the pounds! 🐷😅

After the birth of her last foal, her owners were conscious that she had a bit of baby weight to lose. To give her a head start (and in addition to a calorie-controlled diet), Amber went on a two week swimming holiday, where she regularly swam lengths in a special equine pool under the guidance of a professional team 🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️

The bottom picture of Amber is from after her holiday - she certainly came back fitter and able to continue her ridden exercise and diet at home 💪

Horses have a natural ability to swim, thanks to their wild ancestors needing to cross occasional bodies of water to survive. They swim with their heads elevated above the water, and move their legs in a doggy paddle style.

Benefits of swimming include:
💦 Building fitness and stamina
💦 Promoting weight loss
💦 Low impact, non-concussive exercise, avoiding additional stress on joints and soft tissue

There are various yards across Warwickshire which offer an equine pool for client use. We’re very happy to give our clients advice on whether or not swimming could be suitably incorporated into your horse’s exercise/weight loss programme. The most important thing is to gradually expose your horse to swimming, and build up the lengths over time as it can be very tiring for the horse 😴

👀 We’ve got some more photos and videos to share of more clients swimming - watch this space!
