:( Where you off to? That's really good, will hopefully do that too but he will be ridden by my mum and sister in the week who I hope will get on with him OK. That's exactly how I feel! I know I will regret it if I sell him now as he is so cool and won't have funds to buy a horse like him in the...
Wow thank you so much, this is so helpful. SOoo would love to try polo! Not sure I'll have the coins to spare however. Will rummage RVC website to check EMS requirements. Okay, I had no idea that you could have some sort of degree by studying the BVetMed course for less than the 5 years...
Thanks Ester:) have decided at present that we are keeping him until the end of this year and see how my little sister is getting on with him and whether I am coping with work and riding. May well end up selling him in the spring or even mid winter. It is nice to hear that lots of qualified vets...
Thanks milliepops, lizzierc and ester
Have already taken gap year so can't really defer another year I don't think :/ Lizzierc that is what I will do! I think will see how I am managing with studies and fitting horses in and will take it from there.
Thank you so much for taking the time to...
Trouble is I have been having doubts since GCSE, mainly being because I was also hugely into art and wasn't sure whether I wanted to pursue a career in Architecture or Veterinary. Strange I know...but I made the choice to study vet in the end as I didn't like with the office hours and wanted to...
Thank you!
That's exactly how I felt. The plan always was to sell him at the end of my gap year as I either wanted to do it full on or not at all. As really you need to be riding everyday...But now that I am approaching the end of the season I have found myself completely going against this...
Thanks hottotrot and eventer96. I understand where you are coming from and I am looking forward to the social part of uni life and joining societies and whatnot. But actually I would much rather stay here a play ponies :(! Silly I know, but I think once I am there I will enjoy it. Also I have...
I have read all your messages. Thanks so much! Really appreciate it and lots to think about...I think we will keep him until the end of the season and see how uni is going and how my little sister is getting on with him.
Thanks DuckToller, that sounds like a good idea, however he is rising 11 so if we need to sell he'd need to go before 2017 ideally. He does deserve some time off aswell :)
I'm not sure about that, as vets need to do some work experience in the holidays, not sure how much and if I could keep a...
Hi, thanks for your replies. I would love to get a job and keep him at uni. Trouble is the course is vet med which is quite demanding and I don't think places are likely to take me on for one/two evenings a week which is probably all I could manage. However, I could by all means try. I going to...
Dear All
The eventing season is coming to a close and the 25th Sept (the day I am due to leave to university) is fast approaching. This means that I will very soon need to sell my awesome horse Marco. I have been working hard all year since I left school to provide for him, paying for...
Wow, I have just seen your thread about Bramham and it would be amazing if he could go to 3 star rider!!! Of course, will do. His name is Landmark ll :) http://www.britisheventing.com/asp-net/events/results.aspx?horseid=113067
