🐴 Did you know? A clean stable is about far more than just looking nice! 🧼✨

Over time, urine, bacteria, mould, fungi and ammonia build up underneath rubber mats, in corners and on stable walls. Even the cleanest stables can hide dirt and germs you can’t see.

A professional deep clean can help:

🧼 Remove built-up dirt, bacteria and grime.
🦠 Reduce germs and unpleasant odours.
💨 Cut down ammonia build-up, creating fresher air for your horse.
🐴 Promote a cleaner, healthier environment.
🪰 Help discourage flies and insects.
🦶 Clean underneath rubber mats where moisture and bacteria often collect.
🚿 Pressure wash floors, walls and stable fronts.
🧴 Disinfect the stable using professional-grade products.
✨ Leave your stable looking, smelling and feeling fresh.

💰 Discount on more then one stable, weather you have more then one horse or weather a couple from the same yard come together and get a booking. Big yard discounts also!
💰 Discount on deep cleans and then painted/ treatment.

☀️ Summer clipping? Absolutely! ✂️🐴

People often think clipping is just for winter, but that’s not always the case!

Some horses naturally carry a very thick coat all year round, and during hot weather like we’ve been having, they can really struggle to stay cool. Harry is one of those horses, so today he had a summer clip to help him cope with the heat. 🌡️

By removing that excess coat, he’ll be much more comfortable, sweat less, cool down quicker after exercise, and generally feel happier during this heatwave. 💙

Every horse is different – while some have sleek summer coats, others hang on to a heavy coat regardless of the season. Clipping isn’t about looks; it’s about doing what’s best for the individual horse.

Harry is now feeling much lighter, cooler, and ready to enjoy the sunshine in a lot more comfort! ☀️🐎

Has anyone else had to give their horse a summer haircut this year? ✂️👇

🌿 It’s amazing what a few hours (and a lot of sweat! 😅) can do… 💪

Today’s job was tackling the weeds and nettles that had completely taken over the side of this arena. Safe to say they’ve now been evicted! 👋🌱
still some to finish but already looking better 👌

A clean, tidy yard not only looks so much better, but it’s safer for both horses and people too. It’s one of those jobs that’s easy to put off, but makes such a huge difference once it’s done. ✨

Need a hand getting your yard back under control?

✅ W**d removal
✅ Nettle clearing
✅ Yard tidy-ups
✅ Fence line clearance

Another day, another sunrise spent in the stables… ☀️🐴🥵

Up at the crack of dawn, sweating our t**s off before most people have even had their first coffee! Mucking out, filling water buckets, turning out, bringing in, riding, poo picking… and it’s not even lunchtime yet! 😂💪

Then come the summer horse-owner debates… 🤣

🚿 Hose and scrape?
🚿 Hose and don’t scrape?
🐴 Leave them out?
🏠 Bring them into a cool stable?

Everyone has their own opinions, and every horse, yard and situation is different. At the end of the day, it’s your horse, and you know them better than anyone else. Do what you feel is best for their welfare and what works for your individual circumstances. ❤️

*** SYCAMORE SAPLINGS ARE OUT - DON’T RISK YOUR HORSE’S LIFE ***

Atypical myopathy is one of the most horrific ways for a horse to d*e. The saplings are now out. Just because horses have grazed the same field for years and been fine, absolutely doesn’t mean they will be this year.

These photos were from a case I saw in 2023. The pony had grazed the paddocks with sycamore saplings for less than an hour. He did survive, but wouldn’t have done had he been left much longer.

Please, please do not risk grazing fields with sycamore saplings. I do honestly understand how hard it is for many of you with fields that have sycamore trees. The trees need cutting down; there is no other easy way of managing them. And if you are planning on buying land, never buy any if there are sycamore trees on it, or close to it (unless you can chop them straight down).

Working with horses must be so relaxing” they said… 😜

Meanwhile me:
fighting for my life with stable mats that weigh a tonne 💀

Sweating ✔️
Covered in hay ✔️
Regretting everything halfway through ✔️

But would I swap it? Not a chance 💛

If your yard needs someone who actually doesn’t mind the graft (and the chaos 😂), I’m your girl 👇

Spring is definitely on the way… but if you’re an equestrian, you’ll know it’s not quite as simple as sunshine and daffodils 🌼🐴

It’s that time of year where we’re all checking the weather app 10 times a day trying to decide… rug or no rug?! Lightweight? Medium? a stable rug tonight? 🤦‍♀️ how thick? 😅

One minute it’s warm, sunny and they’re out enjoying life… the next it’s cold, windy and raining sideways. Classic British spring!

Mornings start with layers on, afternoons have you questioning your life choices, and by evening you’re back out changing rugs (again 😅).

The horses are confused, we’re confused… but we wouldn’t have it any other way!

Who else is in constant rug-changing mode at the moment? 🙋‍♀️

Flys will soon be the next problem 🤣 🪰 Fly rugs and fly masks at the ready!
