This is what one of our valued customers had to go through yesterday 😡

Just a bit of a summary……

We obviously went live earlier, but a bit of storytime.

We have a 10ft flat bed that’s on hire.

This morning I received a phone call to say the trailer has been stolen.

Quickly after disturbing George on his lunch break we look on the tracker for the trailer and discovered the trailer was a decent drive from us and was the other side of Doncaster.

We followed directions on the tracker app and was lead to a wooded area which was absolutely huge the tracker led us up a track and showed us a 200ft area of where the trailer should be located.

The bushes were thick, the trees were over grown but in the distance, in a bush was our trailer.

A little known trick of thieves, is to steal trailers or plant, put them in a wood or off the beaten track. They leave them for a couple of days, allowing time to ensure trackers aren’t installed. After a couple of days, they will take them back to their home ground to move on, unlikely to be seen again.

The police I can honestly say have been nothing but an absolute disappointment, a real real let down.

We waited hours and hours then decided to try get to the trailer with our trusty van.

Sadly the ground was not on our side and we ended up stuck ;( with the trailer.

Lots of time went by and tbh we lost idea of what to do untilll…………

We remembered we service trailers just up the road.

After contacting our lovely customer.

A farmer soon turned up.

AND THE TRAILER IS HOME BACK WHERE HE BELONGS!!!

Today we have learnt that trackers are the only way forward……..

Our customers are what keep us going and they always have our back!

Thank you to everyone of you.

STAY SAFE GUYS

*** COLIC MYTH - IT’S ESSENTIAL TO WALK ANY HORSE SHOWING SIGNS OF COLIC ***

I’ve unfortunately seen 5 colics in the past two weeks, so I thought I’d start some colic posts again.

I think one of the main myths surrounding colic, is that you must walk them, even if they don’t want to walk. There are definitely some types of colic when movement is good/essential for the horse, but there are equally many occasions when it’s actually detrimental to keep the horse moving.

Before knowing whether or not you need to keep your horse moving, you need your vet to diagnose what is causing your horse to colic. If your horse has a classic “twisted gut” then no amount of movement will help. In fact, forcing horses to walk if they’ve got intestinal torsion will result in extreme pain. If surgery is an option, then continuing to walk a horse with intestinal torsion (twisted gut) will also wear him out, and potentially cause even more damage to the gut itself, reducing the odds of surgery being a success.

My general rule of thumb for any colicking horse is to allow them to do what they want to do whilst waiting for the vet. If they are standing quietly, then that’s perfect. If they are down in the field then I do normally advise getting them up and to somewhere easily accessible for the vet. If they are thrashing about in a stable and could hurt themselves, then getting them out and into the safety of a lunge pen or arena is a good idea, as long as you don’t risk injuring yourself. If they want to march around, then let them walk. It’s a complete myth that a horse rolling around will result in him twisting his intestine; we’d obviously be seeing hundreds of colic cases daily if this were true.

To conclude, walking a horse with colic MAY be advisable, but you need your vet to diagnose the cause of the colic first. If your horse is reluctant to walk, then definitely don’t force them to move.
