No, however had it killed a member of its pack previously and your parents hadn't wanted to keep it for fear it would have a pop at you then yes!

The animal has killed another dog and attempted to maul a visitor? No. If they can't keep the dog then they should do the responsible thing.

Wouldn't bother. It's a buyers market. If your going to get a youngster then you can get something your really want for peanuts right now.

While you are doing your lessons give her time each day with the bit in. I strip a bridle right down and leave on in the stable, supervised of corse.

Sick

Only have bhs for the third party cover. If something goes wrong with one of the ponies then I will hit the savings or a credit card. Insurance was costing around £450 a year per pony, that's £900 for my two riders without even looking at paying out of the youngsters! Cheaper to insure my beemer!

I did debate this as the other option. Just annoying having to get the 4x4 out to then hitch it up lalalala

Erm rude. A friend purchased one for £800 and it's been going strong nearly three years now.......

Any horse coming over the top of me through the gate would get belted in the head with the headcollar. They are to big for that s***! **runs and hides**

If money was no option I would be all alone. In the middle of nowhere. No friends. Just a bunch of dogs and a few horses. Bit like crazy cat lady but with dogs.

Mug of blue chip mixed with a decent amount of sugar beet, fill em up.

I think 15hh is optimistic. I would say 14hh, 14.2 if fed up.

I don't agree. I have a similar tb type and I am much bigger than you. My tb is 15.3 and I'm not far off 16 stone. He copes fine.
