Would really like some tips and info on your experiences
I am planning on going to a few shows this year and was wondering how possible it is to do alone?
In the past my dad pulled the horse trailer, so there was always him, some of the family, the bf etc at the show. Or if I have been showing horses for friends, then the horses owners were there, some other friends competing in the same show etc...
So what happens if you go alone? What if your horse cant be 100% trusted to stand tied up - how do you go to the toilet, register for a class etc?
Id love for someone to go with me, but I really hate being a burden to people My dad would have to take a day of work, I could ask some of my friends but feels a bit cheeky Them wasting a saturday to stand around all day for me...
I looked at hiring a show groom too, how feasible is this? Is it silly when all I want is someone to keep an eye on him for 5 mins or so here and there
Thanks in advance for any tips or suggestions
