Carriage Driving Season Over

We had our last carriage driving for the 2011 season on Friday last week with our lovely ladies from The Grange in Poole.

On Monday this week, Keith, our farrier came removed the horses' shoes and trimmed their feet in preparation for the winter break.

Keith also assessed the lameness in Maggie, for which she has been confined to a stable for several weeks on an ample bed of shavings to give the laminitis a chance to heal. She has also had to be on a restricted diet and in order to restrict her grazing in the next few weeks the other three horses have the task of grazing down the small paddock that will be hers for daytime feed.

No complaints from these three, that's for sure!!
