So I have had ex racers, then got an appy who I owned for 11 years who sadly I had to have put down because along with the myriad of accidents and tendon injuries along with navicular - having finally got all that sorted for him he developed chronic bilateral uveitis. We battled it for four months - vets bills near 3k, but I couldn't sort this for him and he was too spooky of a horse to have his eyes taken out and really what life would that have been for him.
Have started the whole horse search now and could nearly hang up my boots really!! BUT there has got to be a horse out there for me!! ID's look fab, but they are such high prices now, I have seen a Clydesdale advertised locally but then there is the whole PSSM thing which is not super easy to control - I really think I want a ploddy horse who I can load up into the trailer and go up onto the moor that isn't going to be a pain, bronc me off or have issues!!
Anyone got any thoughts or something they have that is way too quiet for them? I am not a novice rider but I don't want to be living on my wits all the time anymore as I am 50! I want a super quiet horse!!
