    Used saddle sale: now buyer wants refund! Would you?

    As a private sale (and considering whether there are any buyer/seller protective measures via website you used), the buyer is protected by law against misrepresentation. You sold a saddle for a certain size and it turned out to be a different size. However let's not forget that firstly they...

    Sell? PTS?

    Ditto this entirely. Some horses take MUCH longer to settle in a new home, and remembering that in His head he has moved twice since late July. Maybe he's been passed around a lot before too. He misses his old herd, home. Give him longer to settle, and use the time to do some ground work...

    Does a sales agent count as a dealer?

    You are not a business LCH611, you are a private seller remember that. A mild head shake picked up not only in a video which the buyer viewed and then on HER vetting which she then still chose to ignore and buy, would not hold up in court anyway! It would not be seen as misrepresention. She...

    Does a sales agent count as a dealer?

    The first consideration would be whom was the contract /transaction between. Although it's easy to consider the sales agent as being this person, they by the sounds of it simply acted as a 'go between' in the same way an estate agent would if you were selling your house. Unless the sales agent...

    Did he understand me?

    I loved reading all these precious accounts. When my pony 'whiffles' my hair and blows warm air over me and rests her head on my shoulder I feel a real connection. That's special and rewarding. Yes I believe they absolutely understand on a deeper than we can imagine level. Such sensitive...

    What is the difference between a saddler and a saddle fitter?

    There are so many parameters to consider when buying a saddle that unless you have a solid understanding of what you are looking for I wouldn't even go there. Some saddle fitters carry a range of second hand saddles that they can bring and try for fit to your horse. If you are looking to buy a...

    Can anyone give me some advice

    My mare had a ride out that was on the wild side the other day (windy day), when normally she is very quiet. She jigged about, spooked at stuff and pulled. I put it down to her not doing much exercise lately and the wind. She was back to her normal self last time. Wouldn't dwell too much...

    Keeping a grey horse grey (or white)

    Used to use talcum powder years ago on my grey (turned white) horse on his legs to whiten before the show ring. Worked a treat and he smelt lovely!

    How to be less wet around horses...and in general...?

    That sounds like a good plan to start with Catembi ^. :)

    Agree? Or Disagree? (Stolen from Facebook)

    THIS ^ My statement: For a horse to be considered sound it should track fully up in both walk AND trot. My opinion: false Some horses will never fully track up in trot as dependent on conformation e.g. Straight hocked and long backed may mean unable to fully track up, but improvements may be...

    How to be less wet around horses...and in general...?

    By the way I should have added that you have already acted in a positive way by reaching out to others on this forum. And look at all the replies you have had affirming that what you have said about yourself is not the way others perceive you. So it cannot be true!

    How to be less wet around horses...and in general...?

    Catembi You sound very full of self blame for everything not quite right in your life at the moment. Try to re-read your post as if you are reading someone else's post which may help you to see it in a more rational way, and understand that you are NOT useless or 'wet' as you describe yourself...
