Aww thanks . I would love to get them used to as much as is possible! I guess if they do react to things you just keep doing it until they find it the norm? Will see what happens when I go to the stud in a month :) xx

Yes luckily I have funds and enough knowledgeable people to help me. I'm in no rush to get riding , I can't wait to start handling and getting to know them more than anything ! Xx

Aww they sound lovely. And these will Be a blank canvas so hope they see me eventually as I am the one they trust. I will do everything I can to get them used to everything . I must admit nearly everyone round here seems to be on and jumping within 3 months 🙁🙄 I'm In no rush at...

Totally agree they scare me too! I can do it , I just worry about things always have lol. I guess we only learn through doing things, I would do all the handling myself and then as we come to bigger things I would get help or a shadow to show me the right way. I just want it to go well so I tend...

Thanks - guess I just needed some positive vibes! I know I'll be totally fine just a new thing for me . I am very experienced just not in the field of teaching a baby! But I certainly wouldn't do anything major without help first then I'd carry on once I knew what's best. I think eventually I...

This is brilliant lol. I am a worrier and usually everything is fine anyway . We would Be fine. I just worry lol. Thank you 😊

Some of you may have seen my last post about loosing my mare. ( sec D and only want another sec D!)I'm going viewing some young horses at a stud in a few weeks. They are supposed to be amazing tempermeant wise, but unhandled . I've spoken to some and all have said they have been great. I'm a...

Thanks so much for this! All your words help me so much. I'm now In a totally horse free envrioment now I lost my girl. Nobody in my family is horsey so you can only imagine what they think 🙄 I'm not putting my grief on others at all like some have said it's just locked inside but...

I love that.

I guess :) thanks for your kind words they really help me feel better . Xx

Aww thanks for ur reply. I'm a massively caring Owner she was my life! Had everything I could provide her with and always worried me rotten over little things lol. I have that huge horse shaped gap but then sometimes feel daunted that I will never find one but hopefully something will happen...

Really helpful and interesting to hear about your youngster. I have considered it - I don't know as much about bringing young ones on correctly but did think I can love and look after one and form a bond! I don't mind waiting to ride etc as my girl was in very light work for last 5 years due to...

Yeah it was a huge shock to lose my girl . She was 26 but fit , loads of muscle full set of teeth. Took about 3 weeks to diagnose her we thought arthritis , abscess, she had cushings then found insulin resistance and it was chronic lami. And that was in a wet muddy winter of normal routine :/...

Thank you! That's brought tears to my eyes. That's how I feel guilty and awful. She was always there for me like yours was and think that's one of the biggest things sometimes. She's always been there when things have been bad, loosing jobs, fall outs , boy problems I never cared because she...
