Tinney Eventing September 2024 News
A busy few months ahead- NEW WEB SITE in production!
Empty nesters!
Seriously! Where does time go! Gemma has now been in the UK for almost 6 months, she certainly has been busier than us on the eventing circuit. With events thick and fast she has tried to keep up a steady line of competitions. Sadly Hilton has had an ongoing foot abcess, which is proving to be frustrating. Often the change of environment, seasons some horses can take a while to adjust. With time and care they will be back to eventing soon :) A few photos of them at 'Little Downham International'
Stuart on this side of the world has been suffering a lower back injury, (surprise!) Riding can be rough on the back! Treatment and Physio he is back in action (sort of!).. good timing as the events are coming thick and fast!!
We are excited that we will have our 'new look' web site very soon!

With alot of planning and date locked in, it could not have been the worse day for a photo shoot! 'The show must go on' was the mantra! It poured with rain for the whole team sadly :( With the temperature dropping considerably too, all the horses were acting up!!! Admittedly it was alot for us all, rain, cameras, umbrellas, however we all got the job done. Working with animals can certainly be a challenge. We cannot thank CopRice enough, plus the team for their patience that day.
'Whats bugging you' Yes its that time of year- We use and recommend ECOMIST!

'How to manage your horses in the hot summer months' CEVA EQUINE HEALTH
Beat the Heat
Sweat is a healthy function that helps keep a horse cool. But excess sweat can lead to dehydration, loss of important electrolytes and even heat stroke. Here are some handy summer tips to reduce the risk of heat impact: know your horses medical status and what is normal for your horse, including temperature, heart and respiration rate; Learn to recognise the signs of dehydration. Keep electrolyte supplements, like Energetic Isotonic, in your stable kit for those extra sweaty days or rides; Perfect your cool down routine - both after work and in extreme heat conditions. Look after yourself, your horse and your gear this summer, and keep hydrated! We recommend and use Ceva products.
See you all out eventing, all the best TE
