Love all, love you, love rudi! You actually inspired me to make a riding skirt for my friend (one for me is in the planning stages!) I should have told you so long ago but I dont know why I didn't!

Ahhh thank you! And damn thats so cool!! If you ever get pictures i’d love to see!

Sorry, questions! My mother-in-laws pony always seemed to have sensitive feet when she was barefoot, so she had shoes put on all 4s. However, her poor pony can barely walk from laminitis, can she was wondering if it could be to do with the shoes...

I really don’t think nailing shoes is a good idea for a laminitic horse. It literally suspends the horse on the hoof wall, which would be painful to the laminar connection. I typically heal laminitic horses by removing any shoes, getting a really good balanced trim on them with a bit of a bevel at the toe, and then watch their sugar intake carefully. Boots if necessary. If shoes absolutely must be used, I’d recommend a glue on that also supports the frog.

I voted! My uni riding club meant the world to me, even though I never tried for the uni team! It makes such a difference to carry on doing something you love. I'm not sure how to send you the screen shot of validation though :/

Thank you!I know what you mean, i am graduating this year and i will be so sad to leave it!No worries, thank you for voting. Do you have a tagg so i can queue your photos?

What colour is your Hair?! (i miss you)

My hair is teal at the moment!  I’m sorry we haven’t talked in a while, I miss you too and I always smile when I see you on my dash!  (((HUGS)))

My trimmer is gonna teach me how to file my ponies front feet! So excited nervous!

That's wonderful!  It's such a good idea to learn from a professional about your own ponies specific needs. 

Don't be discouraged if you're a little clumsy at first or you find it really hard!  My first few trims had me red faced and sweating by the time I was done, and the horse was being an angel!  It takes a bit of practice to get competent at it, but keep at it and you'll get there.  :)

Hello :) are you having a good day?

Not really, babe. My grandfather had a massive heart attack this morning and passed away. I'm kinda numb at the moment. How's your day been?

7, 12, 19, 29 pleases :)

7. Biggest achievement in riding so far?

Oh lord. Wowie, that’s really hard. I really don’t know, tbh. I mean, the world has fought against me in terms of riding and I have pushed through it. I guess my greatest achievement is developing a sense of perseverance. 

12. Favourite breed of horse?

I don’t really think I have a favourite. I’m generally attracted to big bodied horses, big feet, strong legs, a roman nose is my weakness, a horse with a good mind, some personality, a horse that can be a nice horse on the trail, but can jump anything you point it at. 

19. Worst advice you’ve ever gotten?

"Just see-saw, if he doesn’t listen just see-saw harder!"

*pukes*

29. Ever been on a horse- themed holiday?

If you mean holiday, as in vacation, I have not. :((

Thaaaaankk youu!!!
