I’ll be honest; ‘Friesian Photoshoot’ was going to be the last Nag’s Natter Blog for 2019. I was doing housework, and realised some things that needed to be said. Most the people I have spoken to lately about the year they have had, have agreed this year has hands down been one of their worst […]

Guest Blog From Amylie May Hines On Greasy Heel
It is my absolute pleasure to have our first guest blog from Amylie. Enjoy her insight into greasy heel! One product that I think should be in everyone’s horsey medical cabinet is a product called Heritage Down Greasy Cream. It’s one of the best products I have used on my horses and ponies to clear […]

Yesterday was another dream – worthy opportunity that alligned for another stunning photo shoot with Ffiona of Ffire Photography.

Daylight Spendings ©
Here in New South Wales on Sunday 6th October 2019, the clocks will spring forward an hour at 2 am whilst we slumber. This time of year is a particularly exciting one for us Equestrians, because we get given the gift of extra day hours for us to spend with our equines. Cheering! I thought […]
Equine Fencing Essentials ©
