Lines wise as long as they are health tested and ideally from working stock we are not too fussed beyond that. It will be our family house dog and also working. I have been looking for several months on both of those sites but thank you I will keep my fingers crossed.

I don't know if this is allowed. Does anyone know of any preferably liver ticked gsp litters that are South UK? We have been looking for quite a while for a gsp dog pup to join our team and family. They all seem to be way up north and I just don't agree with an 8 week old puppies having to...

I will try to get hold of GG I would be interested to know what she offers and how it works. Yes breeders could be another idea.

Yes I had never really thought of it like that but of course childrens ponies on the whole will get passed around a lot more. There does seem a lack of good genuine homes out there I do struggle to sell horses/ponies.

Sorry not used them but looking for the same and had only found monarch ones which are mega money. Interested to know how much these are?

I meant they would be coming and goings every week/fortnight (if I was lucky enough to have that many take it up!) rather than just horses dropped off March time and picked up again Aug/sept. Holiday/rest livery was my first thought but the field is not easily split up (not impossible but...

Wow thank you that saved me some time looking.

I have been shocked at peoples high praise for shetlands as I had only really heard bad things, it is very refreshing. As mentioned I think when you find one that fits right for the chi,ld it doesn't matter what breed it is. But I am definitely keen on looking at shetlands now as well.

Agreed that's why I feel loan/lwvtb is so important as it isn't like trying out a horse for me where you can get the feel for it. You can get an idea of temperament but you need to see them in different situations in its new environment before I would even consider putting our Daughter on it...

Thank you that gives me an idea as I have only heard of people charging per horse per week which seemed a bit silly for what we want to potentially offer.

I had thought about this but we can't have different people coming and going. I think we would rather it went to one person for a agreed time period . I'd check on them twice a day and owner can pop down whenever as long as they let me know. It is just trying to find out what there is a need for...

Brilliant thank you. The next question is money, any ideas?

Hello We may be ending up with a whole lot more grazing back than I know what to do with. We can not have the hassle of cutting hay/haylage off it. Cattle are not an option. Sheep are not ideal. So I am looking into whether there is ever a need for herds of horses needing summer grazing...

Thank you It doesn't have to have been there and done it so to speak just done enough that it is known what sort of attitude it has to new ventures. The most important thing is that it has had tiny dots on it and led out and handled by them. I am more than happy to take on an older pony I am...

Blimey Varkie 25!!!! I don't suppose your looking to part with any are you 😁 I have had natives all my life so well used to dealing with laminitis prone ponies, I have a WB who is a fairly good doer but he is used to being fairly independent but I want them both to have company they...
