    Looking to part loan/ride a weight carrier. Norfolk/Suffolk

    Small yard v. Big yard

    Fair enough with the field mates, although he may end up being just has happy somewhere thats nicer to your purse. I like the trial idea that someone saif- if the yard s closer to you, it's not going to be too far from the one that's only 8 miles away so it wouldn't be too much hassle?

    Small yard v. Big yard

    I can't vouch for the settling aspects due only ever having horses on loan or riding at a school, however, I have been on quite a few different yards because of this and a lot of my friends own horses. I've noticed that, so long as you're not in need of a set routine for schooling ready for...

    Telling someone they can no longer use your horse

    This feels very similar to a situation I was in, I had a part loan that I didn't need to pay for (she wouldn't let me) I'd been riding her horse and looking after the other two for a few months when I had a phone call saying "It's not you it's me". If she had told me what, if it actually was me...

    Am I over thinking this clipping question?

    So I am an equine student and one of the questions in an assignment is what would the clipping/trimming requirements be for a horse in spring that used to pull carriages in Poland. I feel like it could be one of two, one being that due to them never having the temperature change we would have...
