FOR LOAN to stay on our yard

Di is one of our riding school ponies, she works 2 days per week in the school but we feel she has more to offer someone! She is approx 14hh, she has a kind nature and is safe to ride and handle. She is steady but if you know how to press the right buttons she can be forward going, she is good to hack and will pop small jumps.

We would like someone who is a competent rider as this would be unsupervised riding (after initial lessons/supervised rides to assess ability and compatibility). You would need to be confident catching and bringing in, tacking up, riding etc

A contract will be put in place and relevant rider insurance necessary

We are offering Di for 3 riding sessions per week for £200 per month. She is looked after by our team 7 days a week so no yard jobs needed

Update

We are so pleased to be able to say we are now CLEAR of strangles! Confirmed by guttural pouch testing which is considered the 'gold standard' of strangles testing

We are very lucky that only 1 horse became unwell out of 20 horses on the yard. With thanks to our vets Hill & Phelan for great advice, support and care throughout and on our part strict biosecurity and early isolation. On vets advice we have temperature monitored every horse daily and also did testing on the contacts of the infected horse. Upon testing we found we had a carrier horse (with no symptoms), the affected horse and the carrier horse had been sharing a field prior to the infection, this is where it came from.

The carrier has NOT had an active strangles infection in our care, he must of had this prior to coming to us (unknown to us). Please see link below of how a horse becomes a carrier, this is something we have learnt a lot about and is probably not that well known - yet is a cause for a number of strangles outbreaks on yards. He has NOT shown any symptoms and was only flagged up on precautionary testing. The carrier horse was treated at Oakham Veterinary Hospital and is no longer contagious and is now negative on testing.

The affected horse was only mildly poorly and has made a full recovery

Thank you to everyone who has been so supportive of us during this time. Going forward we are upping our biosecurity to allow everyone and their horses to safely enjoy our yard and facilities. We are going to take a little time to think through our reopening and also give us time to put our additional biosecurity measures in place. We'll post an update when we are fully reopen

See you soon 😊

This short animation is a simple look at the process that can lead horses to become silent strangles carriers, and what we can do about it. Carriers can cont...

**Important statement**

Unfortunately we have a horse onsite who has tested positive for strangles confirmed today

This horse has been on our yard for 18 months and has had no contact with new horses recently nor left our yard

We have minimal movement of resident horses on/off our yard and the source of this infection is unknown. Although we do have horses visiting for clinics and arena hire our resident horses have limited to no contact with these visitors

Strict bio security has been in place since the horse first showed signs of illness and we are following all vet guidance. At present no other horses are showing signs of illness and will be continued to be monitored daily.

All arena hire, clinics and lessons are currently suspended until further notice (and have been since the horse first showed signs of illness)

The horse has already seemingly recovered in the duration of waiting for test results and only had mild symptoms so hopefully this will be an isolated incident and pass quickly
