    Hey guys, i'm not a horse man (although i do love them i don't own any) but i have an equestrian related question. My fiance is studying canine behaviour and psychology part time in an agri college in the UK. she makes a few trips there a year with one of our dogs for practical training lessons.

    Prob is; while there the enclosures they do their exams in; use equestrian recycled rubber footing and it kinda freaks our golden out. shes a sensitive soul and gets thrown quite easily really my things outside her normal daily exposure.

    So the proposed fix to the problem is to build our own training arena with the same flooring so that it is normal to her and not so off putting when it comes to exam time.

    Can anyone tell me where i can get this recycled rubber footing in Ireland (Cork preferably) and any idea of price per square meter, i'll prob only build a 5m x 5m in the garden.

    Thank you

    Thanks will give them a buzz, it seems there are lots of different types so i need to do a bit more investigation to find out which type the college uses before i waste money buying the wrong one. Herself things its more like strips or shreds than granules which seems to be the most common on the websites i've looked at
