Well I’m finally back out. Despite a number of doctors saying it would be very unlikely. We did it. When I was told the extent of damage I did & how long I was going to be out for. Doctors & the surgeons saying it will be unlikely I’d be able to close my fist and use my last 3 fingers. I thought how the hell am I going to do my job or ride again.
With the help of my family, friends & I didn’t listen to a word. I started massaging my arm doing physio myself 5 days post op & continuing I had movement back in 3 weeks! Was back to work after 4 months doing horses backs.
I just want to say how lucky I am to have so many amazing clients, friends & family behind me. I wouldn’t be where I am today.

And for those who gossiped & said I wouldn’t be the same again or as good as I was at my job. More fool you. I’m stronger & even better!

My results were very good on Sunday finishing 4th. Judge said was her winner but sadly Dudleys stallion brain cells took over & we had some cheeky moments which let us down but never mind. It was more important that we’re back out & enjoying every moment ❤️

Friday focus...feeding before exercise!

Ensuring that your horse or pony has something in his or her stomach before you ride or exercise them is so important to keep their gut healthy.

The strong acids in the horses stomach are present whether there is food in the stomach or not. If there is no food in the stomach for the acids to break down, the acids attack the squamous cells in the non-glandular region of the stomach. If the horse is frequently without food, this usually results in the horse developing gastric ulcers; the stomach does not work well when empty! If you add exercise onto this, the acid will just be splashing around in the stomach causing all sorts of problems. Ensuring that your horse eats before you ride will help prevent this.

Whatever you offer should be forage-based and highly digestible. Either offer a some hay or haylage and let them nibble at that while you are getting them ready, and/or feed 1/2-1 Stubbs scoop of dampened chaff. If your horse has dental issues, some soaked grass nuts are ideal! I would still advise feeding something if they are ridden or exercised from the field, so you can be sure there is something in their tummies; this is particularly important if they are on restricted grazing or their grass is short!

It was always promoted to not feed before exercise and to leave about an hour after feeding before riding. This still applies if you are feeding cereals or straights. However, hay, haylage and forage-based feeds are absolutely fine and for all the reasons above, should be fed to protect the stomach from splashing acid.

Your horses stomach works best 1/2-3/4 full, so ensuring it is kept that way will help support and promote a healthy gut environment!
