Hello!

Hi, I'm Toby, I'm a 13 year old thoroughbred cross and I'm a gelding but that is still a sore point so I prefer not to talk about it. Sarah found me on horse hunter whilst looking for her first horse, she thought that I looked like I could do with some good food and exercise from the photo on my advert but came to see me anyway. Unfortunately I didn't look much like the picture on the internet, I was much worse, I hadn't been looked after properly so I was very thin, my spine stuck up and people said my ribs looked like a picket fence, my hips stuck out too, I felt sad and couldn't be bothered to do much. I made Sarah really sad. I'm much better now but me and Sarah still have some work to do and need to get to know each other better so this blog has been set up to let people know how we are getting on.

Weight gaining 11 October 2009




Sarah said that I weighed 398kg when I arrived, but I probably weighed less than this because I have big withers. I got so much nice food to eat, sugar beet, this sloppy stuff (fibre cubes) some cherry chaff and my favourite this stuff that has lots of different bits in it, Sarah calls it no.17.
After one week I gained 14kg.
Sarah had also been rubbing this greasy jelly stuff on all the places where I had been bitten by the other horses at the old yard and behind my ears where I was bald. It made my hair grow back. I also got to wear a nice new soft headcollar, it was a bit big but it's nice and posh.
