I work on a livery yard and havent been putting any rugs on lately. Although it was heavy rain last night and i got to work this morning to find everything [including the shetland and gypsy cob] shivering like mad!! I did feel a bit guilty! :o

Sadly i think thats what im going to have to do. Didn't want to mess the poor horse and his owner about but he is way more difficult than his owner made him out to be :(

I do like the horse but he's not easy to ride or handle so not sure if i would easily find a sharer for him?! I dont have time to ride him everyday of the week [which he needs to stay sane!] so if i were to keep him i would need a sharer :confused:

Hi all. Hoping the lovely people on this forum will be able to help me make a decision :o. I took a horse on loan a few weeks ago with the intention of him being a share horse for my mom and myself. Long story cut short we now know that he will not be suitable for my 50yr old slightly nervous...

I'd take him on if you were closer to me :D

My new horse seems to be frightened of most things but mainly bikes! Going to start riding one round the yard to get him used to it!! Im an evil mummy:o

I have loaned horses and put one out on loan. I think as long as both parties are honest about about what they want and expect from the loan and you draw up a comprehensive contract it can work well.

Wow! So jealous. He's gorgeous!!:p

I live in Bromsgrove, which is about 30 mins from Worcester.

Thanks both. I'll give her a call :)

As title really. Does anyone know of a really good saddle fitter in the west midlands/worcestershire area, preferably who will px my current saddle?

Ive just had a horse on loan that has come with NOTHING!! What size rugs ect are you selling? I may be interested :)

Previous owner hadnt introduced him to mounting blocks so wont go near them! Only had him since Monday, lots to teach him!

I tried leaning over him and he panicked and bolted! Was thinking of getting him a wintec with the cair system as the saddle he came with is old and dont think its worth getting it re-flocked ect.

Ive taken a horse on loan that is fab in loads of ways except this mounting issue. He will regularly turn into a bucking bronco when im getting on but once im on and get him moving he settles down. Had his back checked so next will be checking his saddle apart from that dont know what else to...
