My mare was attacked at the beach today, she was tied up and I caught the dogs and took them back to the owner who was on his phone. He apologised and then let them off to attacks her again. Both labs, not their fault but still.
My yard is very unfriendly, apart from a couple of liveries. I particularly dislike the way that the younger liveries are treated/spoken to. Ignore and ignore again- it’s their own issues.
I have a rescue from Cyprus, best dog ever. So lovely and ignore any ignorant anti foreign rescue posts. They will be the ones paying puppy farmers for lorry dog cavapoos ?
Dragged out of unpaid breaks too. I would willingly pay more for the grooms to be paid better. Ours are grumpy, unhappy and one is constantly shouting at the horses. If I could pay more to alleviate this I would.
I couldn’t believe the pay of the grooms on our yard, the youngest are getting paid £6.50 something an hour. This is on a very wealthy estate. One of them bought a drink from costa in her break for someone and didn’t get paid back. That cost her pretty much an hours work.
Same, I have never kicked or hit a horse in the head. It’s not relevant if this happens in other places either.
I would have said something and I have said something before. Some of the worst abuse I have seen is frustrated parents of NSEA competitors.
I am proud to have been called a tree...
Ah maybe someone different then. She said this in response to the latest Facebook review which highlighted the advert. She also got her friends to pile in.
Been on a small, friendly yard but left due to not enough turnout, was very happy there. Now on a much bigger full livery yard with indoor arena, good turnout and hacking. I am getting increasingly fed up with the way that the older liveries and head yard girl treat the youngsters though...
She was told it was offensive and her use of the RDA in the context of the word is disgusting. She proudly left the advert up. She also claimed she is ‘certified autistic’.
If this is the same dealer in Surrey that I am thinking of? NT
I think it’s important to stand up to this, however she clearly does not care, also claimed to be autistic as if that defended it.
It was extremely offensive and I am sick of this sort of thing being swept under the carpet. I think the dealer should be named but I am not going to in case it’s...
