    Loan fallen through again....And I still live in a different country.

    Spotted - my thoughts exactly. I do not want to be liable. With regards to the contract, I think depending on what Duckling (my friend, excellent rider, Alice loves her!) says, I may try Project Horses, and then just chuck her out for a while. Then, once I have the silly money to ship her, I...

    Yeah, the upkeep is too much...! Do want a vet out though, you are right Kate.

    Loan fallen through again....And I still live in a different country.

    She is an easy keeper, so a companion may work. E-mailing yard owner, who is going to advertise for a younger loaner, with experience etc. I love her dearly but she is a royal pain, and eugh!

    Nail on the head there Bumpy Ride - I keep thinking maybe I should go over there, but, I just don't think there is any point as I know she will be fine with me. Yeah, she just has it in her head that she can get away with it. I know horse's really don't distinguish that much between people...

    Loan fallen through again....And I still live in a different country.

    Idlp111 - I totally believe that she is doing this, the woman is a novice, with a family and it is not worth her risk, so I totally understand. She has been being ridden by different people for about 4 years, and has reared from time to time with all. Carys - yes, you are right. I am not...

    I have had her since she was 3/4 - so 7 years. Ha, its like a jealous pony relationship! I don't know, maybe my mother has a point, and she should just be put down. She has done it with at least 5 people, some very experienced, others novicey.

    Loan fallen through again....And I still live in a different country.

    My mother and I just spoke, and she is worried about the liability she would face on insurance. She is thinking possibly approaching a vet and saying she is unsafe to ride. So LOU and put down. Yes, she does like me only. Never, ever tried it with me, and never felt unsafe. I have had several...

    Well, the beast has done it again. If you don't know the deal, I moved to the States and left the pony in the UK. Bad idea, but she is unsellable due to having had spavin. Anyway, found a novicey person, who loved her dearly. But...she is now randomly rearing. I have had back/teeth/vet out, and...

    What is the strangest thing you have found in your field?

    Only just checked back onto the forum! Damn! I found a Bearded Dragon - its a lizard native to Australia. They are very spikey, and scary looking, but I knew what it was as my parent's had them. So, I got a new expensive lizard. I guess someone had abandoned it, or Sussex was becoming...

    Your favourite fictional horses

    Haha, I have King of the Wind - good read. My ultimate favorite is the Black Stallion - I have, and have read the entire collection, and love the movie. Who could turn down a cantankerous, but stunningly handsome horse? Really is my favorite, closely followed by Black Beauty - but can't deal...

    Stables fire

    I just saw this - scum. Regardless of if it was a 'mistake' and the flames spread. What horrible people, and I really feel for the poor owner.
