    Yard Theives

    I'm so sorry to hear of your experience! Fortunately there has been no spiteful breakages so far. I just can't stand the lying, as it ruins what is otherwise therapeutic for me. I'm just hoping the culprits will realise that what they're doing is actually really wrong, as I initially really got...

    Yard Theives

    Thank you all for your comments. Will definitely be taking some of them onboard. As sad as the situation is, at least I know that many others have been affected. I am going to keep small things at home and just take them with me when I need them until I have found a lockup. Am also going to...

    Yard Theives

    I wouldn't mind if people asked or told me that they needed to borrow something. I was really happy with my yard, but this has suddenly happened more and more frequently with no one admitting fault. It's just so sad that people don't see it as stealing!

    Yard Theives

    People are pointing finger that they've spotted her taking some. I went up to speak about it to her last night and she said that she'd only used it to feed my horse. Even though I feed her myself so don't see the need for her to do that as then I'm unsure how much she's being fed?

    I'm seriously thinking about it. Only think holding me back is that I loan the horse from the YO..

    Yard Theives

    Would love to hear fellow liveries stories on people stealing from them and how they managed it... I'm relatively new to owning my own horse, so have had a lot of start off costs and bought a lot of things new. Started off with my brushes being used and not being put back. My muck scoop was...

    Horse Trailer / Box License

    Thank you both. I'm in Staffordshire. I only have a VW Polo at the moment - so no chance pulling any kind of trailer with that! What about driving a small horse van? We only have the one horse but would like to take her a bit further out every now and then so looking into hire of small horse...

    Full loan??

    Going from Part Loan to Full loan is a big commitment. Unlike part loan you will be fully responsible for the maintenance of the pony and also their safety. Some loaners may be flexible if the horse is kept at their yard, but you will be responsible for the vet bills, dentistry and shoeing. It...
