My new horse needs backing and bringing on - I don't have an indoor school or one with lights, so am limited to early mornings or weekends. I'm want to do a bit of dressage with him, and since its a dressage yard (and its local) I'm looking at going there, but I don't mind where he goes as long as the yard is good and he is trained correctly. Does anyone recommend or have experiences; yes I know the owner is a little 'ecentric' but I don't care if she's harsh on her staff - as long as my horse is looked after well I don't care what the staff are treated like (in my opinion my horse is the important one, I don't care for the staff - sounds harsh but I'm looking at Denny's best interests) it costs 150 to 180 a week, but she has an open yard from 7am to 10pm for owners to visit - she's offered for me to do as much or as little in the breaking process as I want and my horse can go there whenever I want, she is very open - she told me 'if you have any problems, you come to me and I will sort it'
I think the horses are well treated, they all have over reach boots on in fields and then when they come in they have their feet picked out and hosed off; beds and haynets are massive.
He'd be worked betweek 4-6 days, depending on how he accepts it and what I want done; which is the basics and for him to be a confident respectful young lad.
Any recommendations please? X
