Tried & Tested – Grubs Socks Overall thought; Warm and comfy! The Grubs socks are hardwearing, warm and are certainly very comfy, your feet will feel pampered and looked after as soon as you put them on. Feet didn’t over heat or feel uncomfortable after a full day at the stables. They wash well without loosing their elasticity following several washes. Ideal for inside a pair of wellies or walking boots. They are fairly thick though so may not fit well under a pair of closely cut riding boots. What…

Equisafety Dog Harness Review The Equisafety Dog Harness is available in two colours, hi-viz pink and hi-viz yellow. The harness is  fully adjustable and offers 360 degree fluorescent edging and strips, to add extra visibility with a flashing collar. There’s two lead attachments, one at the front and one on the rear strap, both are suitable for a pulling dog. We found the front was more effective. The advantage of having the lead attached to the harness and not the collar was for a dog that ‘pulls’ receives a greater force…
