Not alot to report!

Polo is having a few days off after his treatment(should be riding him tomorrow) and AliG is having at least a month off until im happy about this pesky splint.Bowen lady put it into perspective and said he's got many years to be ridden so im chilling out about it now!Its not like im keen to ride with this God awful weather..its rained for 3days solid:(
Im relenting and bringing the boys in tonight,hopefully it will only be for a couple of days till it dries up AND we are trying to catch YO about either having a field shelter built or opening up one of the sheds that ajoins our field,his wife tends to make huge issues out of everything so we want to talk to him about it.If we can get that sorted i'll winter them out,our field is very exposed and has no natural shelter so they do get fed up when it rains none stop but if we can get this sorted it would be brill.

Minx and Mouse are coming into season so I have rather randy dogs at the mo,Buster is going to stay with my Mum over night while im at work,I dont trust OH to keep an eye on them:)

Sorry forgot to reply to Claire about Buster possibly standing at stud!
Ive already been aproached by a couple of people about this but will hang on a few more months yet plus I want to see how he does showing really.The stud fee depends on how well he does to a degree but usually around £250.
It will certainly be a LOT less stressfull,risky and cost less than having my own litters thats for sure!

Ooo hooo puppies if OH doesn't do his duty babysitting!!! Inbred - with two heads?????

Ah now Nicola, if you could have your own litter of pups wouldn't the News of the World pay you a fortune for the pictures and exclusive rights to your story :-)?

The idea of the shed sounds good. Having the horses out as much as possible is, to me, always the best idea.

I am working on a plan so Tucker can be turned out in the riding arena when it is too muddy to risk his shoes.

I have a feeling Sir Buster the Magnificent might make a great daddy. And you are right--a heck of a lot easier than having the litters of puppies at your house.

Oh well today I had a randy mare ... does it make by size? she was wee-ing everywhere every minutes ...
As Ludlu told me :" women have come such a long way, there you are with your mare randy mare!" LOL

I do not remember with dogs, are they trhat bad, or do you have to keep them in, I guess away from horny Buster ;-P

think thats more a Sunday Sport type of story!:0

Its the bitches who are randy Muriel!Up to now Buster isnt showing too much interest,hopefully he's a bit too young but im watching them like a hawk.
After the stress with Minx having pups it put me off but I did say I'd have a go with breeding Mouse next year.Breeder think very highly of her and she's done well showing wise, probably then get them both spayed and Buster can have all the fun!:))
