Thanks Fiona. I have been made aware of the concerns raised in the article but am going to have to make some sort of provision in the town where I will be working, so correct fitment will be a must. Fortunately our route will take just 20 minutes but we will be watchful for our horses welfare. American BUN bags look interesting but all of the weight of the dung is carried by the horse and I can find no one in the UK with experience of using one. |

Hello, Jenny, fyi there is an article about the use of these being detrimental to the horse's welfare on the BDS website, here: http://www.britishdrivingsociety.co.uk/information/NAPPIES%20-%20BLACKPOOL.pdf If you google "horse manure catcher" or a similar phrase, you should be able to find a supplier in the UK, or - better - call any reputable harness supplier to discuss what you need - there are many on this forum. I am sure you'll find help. "Thin end of the wedge!" |
