Explore every episode of the podcast No Bucks Given “the truth about horse life”

This week I sat down with former BHS welfare officer Fiona (10 years).

We spoke about why horse welfare is such a grey area, answered all your questions from my poster, Fiona shared cases she has seen (no names for obvious reasons), and the big one - the equine industry as a whole needs to change, but how does that happen?

No judgement, just real talk about what we can all do better.

Thank you to Fiona for coming to me today.

This week I talk about the stress and panic of buying that first horse also all the none horsey parents buying the kids there first pony

Steven away and I’m at home running things here. This week you sent in lots of questions and I love having questions to answer

It's been one of THOSE weeks.

We headed off to Somerford camp with me & Sean Connie & Toffee & Melody & Cassio for what was meant to be a fun few days of water complexes and XC - and it was, until the chaos started.

In this episode we chat about:

• Trip to Somerford camp & riding through the water with Toffee

• Connie's XC fall off Toffee

• The crows that stole our noodles at camp (yes, really)

• Sam's SJ wing incident - when the cob decided to take the whole wing with us and my knee lost

• Coming home straight into vet visits and hospital trips

Real talk, real life, all about horses - the highs, the lows, and everything in between.

Have you ever had a camp like this one? Let us know!
