It wasn't to suss out the horse. It was to ensure that I got to know him and her so he would fit in with my retired boys and as she wanted close contact with him whilst he was on loan to me I thought it would be a good idea to check we got along too as she wasn't far from me and wanted to come...

I would never have implied to her in a snooty way that I knew better as that's not me and no one knows everything. I asked her if I could try him in a snaffle and bridle in the school to see how he went, I didn't go into detail as to why I wanted to, and she was fine with it. She actually just...

Yes I think sadly you are most probably right. Maybe moving quicker next time is what I need to do. I just don't rush anything with my horses, I need to know that it could definitely work out. Especially with my boys, I like to rock the boat as little as possible with them.

Thanks very much for your input though. It's been beneficial and ts good to hear a different view on it as it was only a few days ago so I'm looking at it from a personal view rather than my pragmatic approach!

Actually she wanted it changed to 2 years, which I was more than happy about. And I kept the clause in about stabling at my yard...but added another which stated with exception of a needing to be temporarily stabled elsewhere for competition purposes in which circumstances she would be informed...

Well

I don't think it was anything in the loan agreement. The loan agreement was just a structure taken from the BHS website. I amended the insurance part slightly and the number of months he would be on loan for as we had agreed on 24 not 12. Also the part about only being allowed to be stabled at...

Hi, yeah I had emailed her a loan agreement that I had revised as there was a number of things I wanted changed on it. But she hadn't gotten around to signing it and sending it back.

No, I understand that it is her horse. It's just totally thrown me and also not offered a reason why. I assume the reason is that she cant bear to part with him etc. And as re: buying, I am in the position to buy, but at the moment I don't want for a number of reasons. So far only one...

About 2 months ago I thought I would start looking for a horse to loan as both my other boys are retired. SO I found a beautiful 5 year old appaloosa X who was relatively local and so I enquired about him. His owner sounded nice, I was confused as to why she said he was in a grackle and a...
