Reading the horse shopping threads made me wonder if any people take a chance on a horse with problems that then works out ?
My 2nd horse was bought for a few hundred pounds after he had a bout of laminitis with his first owner . He never had it again , did lots of different things including low level hunter trials , show jumping, showing ,dressage, fun rides , plenty of hacking out , and lived to the great age of 26
The horse i next bought , for a few hundred pounds again ,has rubbish conformation , dipped back , pigeon toed , spooky , not happy in very heavy traffic , but he has been my horse of a lifetime having done HT , SJ , dreaage ,fun rides before finding his niche with TREC , he is now 20 years old and still competing
Anyone else's 'chances' work out ?
