Or free
(And I am actually looking for one if anyone wants to give one away, it's to a good cause, would mean the world to my horse and mean I could spend more on chocolate and other tat if I got one free)

Seen a great one - the owner is deadly serious and said I was clueless when I suggested it was cheeky to charge for a loan on top of them paying for livery...

The owners certainly have it sussed! None of this 'why should I have to pay £25 a week and do jobs as well?'

But it's not a loan, it's a lease. They are also common here in France, though more for confirmed competition horses, rather than run-of-the-mill all rounders

Just popped up on my timeline - desperately need help with horse a few days a week over Christmas holidays due to work commitments. Includes turning out, mucking out, riding etc. Small financial contribution required.
So wants someone to pay her to be her part time groom !

Dammit, you beat me to it, I literally just came on here to post about this one! What a cracker! I was going to comment but saw that a couple of people already had ... may switch on FB notifications so I can break out the popcorn when it inevitably gets abusive

I did just comment after someone defended it by say a share is cheaper than a riding school!

I saw your comment, couldn't agree more ... she's not offering a share, she wants someone to pay for the privilege of looking after her horse for her! What are some of these people on ... ?

I saw one this morning, someone looking for livery. MUST have good year round turnout, MUST have excellent facilities. MUST be cheap.
...what are these people on??

Just wondering. Where are these Facebook posts? Must be somewhere I don't go as I never see them so have to come on here to see them.

Saw one the other day asking for a sharer for a 2.5 year old - sharer was expected to school and hack the pony during the week as it is schooled by someone else on the weekends - sharer needed to be experienced as the pony needs bringing on. Of course, a financial contribution was required! Took all my willpower not to comment.
Also saw one the other day from a girl asking for help as her green 3 year old won't go forward in the school. This is from a girl who regularly posts, and judging from her questions, she seems extremely inexperienced. Someone actually commented to say "have you tried a whip?" I suggested that she should find a decent instructor to help her. The next day, there was a post offering the pony for sale.

I'm impressed with the fact it rears on command and jig jogs on the spot and will deck you on a hack. Might ring up !

Wow, so an ill-mannered horse who has never been properly schooled and is basically dangerous (but a kid could ride it?!) and the owner can barely write. I have every faith that this horse would be perfect for my 2 year old cousin!

The "rear on command " bit has sealed the deal for me!!!! OMG took all my time and made my eyes go funny reading that - hope the advertiser drives a bus better than they write a paragraph...

. Can he actually read the road signs? Apparently takes 45 mins to warm up! Is that after he decks you in the road?
