A day late by why not




The expectations were:
Sort my brothers dogs out while he’s on holiday
Go to my yard of show ponies
Go to a small private yard
Finish by lunchtime (still on reduced hours) and go to the hospital for a dressing check up

The reality being
I couldn’t get out of the farm lane so I had a snow day ❄️☃️🌨️

Apologies to those that I cancelled 🙈

Meet The Horses…what horses, I’m sensible and don’t own any, I instead have a Jack Russell.

Although I look after some amazing horses and ponies I’ve not made the purchase or loan yet (we shall see how much longer it lasts 🤪)

Maple
6 year old Jack Russell bred by kailzieequestrian_ 😍
She was the best thing to happen during lock down.
Absolutely loves coming to work with me, seeing her horsey, doggie and human friends.
However she doesn’t like gunshots, shouting or the cold 🥶

Thank goodness for equafleece and regattaoutdoors aswell as ruffandtumbledogcoats for keeping her warm, dry and clean after some long days at work.

Thank you to those that allow her to join in the fun 🥰

For as long as i can remember ive always been horse daft. One of the first yards i stepped foot onto was Richard Telfords while my cousin worked there 😍
I was then lucky enough to live up the road from Daphne Dale and although I could walk and trot she took me under her wing with the most amazing Shannon pony and not only got me cantering, she encouraged me to do my first rideout! I didn’t start riding until I was 16 😆
I’m so grateful to Daphne for her trust & guidance

The fantastic Riviera PR Ltd challenge is back & im ready for 2026 full stop!

For those of you that don’t know me I’m Rachel, 31 (🙈) live in the NorthEast of England with a fanatic JackRussel called Maple 🍁
Im a feeelance groom covering the NorthEast of England, Scottish Borders & the odd venture into East Lothian.
I went self employed in 2012 after not being able to find any full time work local to home after completing my apprenticeship down at Bardwell Manor Equestrian Centre in Suffolk then being a au pair for the summer.
Since going self employed I’ve had the privilege of working with eventers, hunters, showjumpers, private hacking horses, show ponies and racehorses to name a few!
My main business objective is to support clients on the ground but I will hack horses out too.

I’m really looking forward to participating in this journey & I’ve got lots planned for 2026 so click follow to come along on my journey

I had the pleasure of meeting Milli Kelly - Veterinary Chiropractor yesterday on a clients yard where she gave 4 ponies a good check over.
Although Milli isn’t local I’m sure if clients got together she would be able to arrange a date ☺️
