Just got back from riding my 27 year old 14.2hh Welshie. We’ve been together 10 years and she‘s my absolute world and taught me so much. I worry about losing her every winter especially when I see other horses on the yard having so many health problems. However, she’s showing no sign of slowing...
My girl wears these and it has made an enormous difference. She’s 26 and still able to lead a hack with horses a quarter of her age. https://www.streamz-global.com/equ-streamz/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI_8fDoP7k7QIVCb_tCh20LQvBEAQYASABEgJDGfD_BwE
You sound like a bright intelligent girl who will learn quickly. Perhaps a share would work for you where you’ll have someone to guide you through the first few months. You’ll never know everything nobody does but you’ll be able to learn the basics quickly. Good luck hope you follow your dream.
I think most horses adapt to going out alone early and you perhaps need to let it/ make it work and take the help from your sharer. Spring will be here soon and your baby's routine will improve I'm sure. Sounds like you're doing an amazing job good luck hope it all works out for you.
I started using these this year and have been really impressed my 22yo Welsh D looks beautiful and hasnt gained the usual weight she does with a low cal balancer. Really economical too.
I'd say mine are generous without being too big, room for thick socks but fine without too. Hope that helps I've had mine for 2 years and they've worked very hard and still in goodish condition ��
I share 3 days a weeks and pay half of all costs which probably equals about £125 per month on average. She's on DIY so do I everything for her on my days plus everything for her field mate too on my days. Been sharing for 4 years now and love the pony to bits but if I'm honest I didn't sign up...
