Another week of weird and wonderful weather, still lots of fungal skin conditions floating around and rich feed causing havoc. The founder-prone horses and ponies are still really struggling with such incredibly rich grass on hand, usually, it would be over the worst of that by this time, but don’t be fooled.
Reminding everyone again that all memberships for Pony Club activities need to be paid before attending any rallies or events. On that note, always make sure anyone around horses is relevantly qualified and experienced in their respective fields, there are always people popping up here and there offering services, do your homework and find the one that’s right for you.
Fingers crossed for good weather for the Donkey Festival at Wesburn Park, starting at 10am, a great school holiday activity for the kids, hoping to see everyone there for a really fun day.
