Thanks, it's not hard with Belle, she will quite happily stand in the field while she gets jabbed, I don't think she even noticed to be honest.
I just saw this after i had already posted pics of rummy but here he is again looking really well for 34 years old with cushings. Before and after pics of being clipped this morning
Handsome lad after his clip and fluffy cute before.
Have you also got little spots as well? I am sure mine has spots coming.
Would dapples show as spots?
These are from weighbridge day 2 weeks ago. Jess and Dan are on the low side of good, 555kg and 138kg respectively, Hank is fat as a house at 145kg!
I am loving this thread - what a good idea of yours @Ale. Lovely to see Marley looking so well, doesn't he look different clipped? Jess looks well and Hank and Dan are super cute, never mind what their weight Are you sure Hank's weight isn't all in his mane?
Are you sure Hank's weight isn't all in his mane?
I'll tell him you said that later, he'll like you better than me calling him 'belly, belly, belly'Are you sure Hank's weight isn't all in his mane?
Thanks he is handsome, isn't he lol my trimmer and vet call him the donkey during the winter months
Yes he has some we dark spots but I was thinking it was an age thing never thought it may be dapples???
@Ale I think he is looking great. If i remember correctly you didn't rug him at all this winter did you? He has wintered out great by the looks of him.
@Bodshi all I can say is wow, stunning
@newforest she always looks well no matter what the season.
@Pete's Mum he is looking very handsome.
@Kite_Rider Yes a big GRRRR need bigger photo's but Belle is looking beautiful.
@Jessey your lot always look well, Jess' is gorgeous and the boys are too cute
I love seeing all these pics, Ale what a great thread...Everyone seems to have done well in this long hard winter we have had.

Tried that idea with the vet. Said all her weight was in the feathers. Her thick coat must weigh something.
They said yes the tb they saw just now had heavy bandages. So it's a known fact.
How lovely to log on and see all your horses looking so well, especially after such a tough winter! If only we looked after ourselves half as well haha or is that just me.
Flashpants weigh taped at 532kg the other day- he needs to chub up a bit. He’s shedding his winter coat brilliantly- apart from the fact that it’s in my lungs, up my nose, and all over my clothes.
He’s currently off work for a week with a hot fat leg (infected cut on his back left).
Today I lifted all the rubber mats from his stable, and disinfected the floor as it all absolutely reeked.
I also built him a hay box that he can eat from - chiropractor said eating from Low down is better- hay net makes them use the wrong muscles. If I just dump slices on the floor, he wastes loads of it- kicking it around and stamping poo into it.
Here he is with it.

Ours are fed on the floor. We have a couple of hoovers that don't waste any strands.Flashpants weigh taped at 532kg the other day- he needs to chub up a bit. He’s shedding his winter coat brilliantly- apart from the fact that it’s in my lungs, up my nose, and all over my clothes.

My cough is going, so hopefully I won't need to ring the vet. Seriously I would rather ring them than get gems from the surgery!
Yes others have the just clipped looked, and were done last year.
Funnily enough I might have kicked started a shedding. Lost loads today, almost fully summer front end.
