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.

Haylage, yummy yummy haylage

Sarah decided a few weeks ago that perhaps it might be a good idea to introduce me to haylage now that my tummy is used to being fed properly. I was so excited when she put up my big net and it smelled so good, I have pinched some from my friend Logan before when his net was left dangerously close to my stable door so I have already tasted it.

But it was a bit of a problem, I just didn't know whether to eat my tea or eat the haylage so kept taking a mouthful of each.

I noticed that Sarah had put some hay in the net as well so I just ate around it, I don't know why she thought I would want to eat that muck when I had so much haylage to get through.

She said that I was a cheeky boy for doing that and that I was lucky that I didn't get the squits! She's lucky more like, I don't clean up my own poo!
