    So cross...... your thoughts please

    Yes - the original agreement is that we get 2 months to find someone, whilst paying for one stable and then we would have to pay for the other. They have had someone on there over the winter and it has been standing empty for a month now, the previous occupant had caused some damage to the...

    That is it in a nut shell. It has already been agreed over a week ago that they would give us 2 months to find someone, preferably someone we knew to move in with us. (They are keeping the 3rd stable vacant because their daughter has a horse on full livery at another yard, but sometimes...

    Thats just it, there are no other people on the yard - it would have been just us, its standing empty at the moment. I just dont know what they want. GIVE UP and accept my fate at current yard I think, better the devil you know. Thanks for support just needed to rant !

    Yep it seemed it would have been better - they assured me that they don't intrude and let us get on with things, only time we need to contact them is when muck needs clearing etc.

    So cross...... your thoughts please

    You are right, CRAP it is, I feel so depressed and upset now, thought there was light at the end of the tunnel - now its very dim. Problem is there is not much else here, its all too far out of the way. Feel really bad too, as had taken on this pony to keep my lad company, and though we...

    So cross...... your thoughts please

    New yard is closer to home! People wont move - problem is if you stick your head above the parapet to defend your horse it gets bitten off by YO. Everything is fine when the sun shines and horses are allowed out, people only moan when they stay in during wet and winter months, but wont do...

    So cross...... your thoughts please

    After looking high and low for a yard to move my horse too, I found what I thought was the ideal place, lovely big school, 4 acres, 3 stables, storage for everything, plus land being extended to take on more grazing and expanding the school. Only little snag was that 2 of the stables were...

    Livery Yards, Horse Welfare and the Law

    Hi Peeps, Believe me - the past day has been spent looking for yards and fields to rent, but nothing yet. I don't want to stay there any longer than I need to, we do have a contract it says absolutely nothing about turn out and he changes his mind from one year to the next, everyone on the...

    Livery Yards, Horse Welfare and the Law

    I accept what you are saying - but at the time of coming to the yard, it was advertised as 24/7 turn out, no mention of staying in when ground was wet, all this has come about since he has started getting money from DEFRA (not sure how it works). I accept that the welfare of my horse is my...
