dont know what to do

[My_chestnut_mare]

Hi
I have a black cob gelding he is heavy weight but i would like someone to maybe come and ride him.

But he is my OH pony and he not keen but Jae(my cob) isn't getting ridden as much as i would like as my OH is a complete novice and just a slow hack.

Jae is 16 which isn't old but i would like him to get fitter so he has a better chance later in life.

I myself ride him but with having my show jumper and 2 kids to look after an a house dont have much time.

I dont want to loan him out and i dont want someone to contribute IE money but may be a bit of riding and mucking out.

Does that sound to much to ask for?

Any help ideas?????

It probably hasn't come out properly but i hope you get the just.LOL

isnt there someone at your yard that could ride? or close family friend? watch with advertsing as people see it as a free ride

I would advertise in a local tack shop, I am sure there would be plenty of people out there wanting to ride and muck out!
Shame your not local to me!

I advertised for a rider back in april(just to ride no jobs or payment) but as my man is pretty quirky once i told people what he was like they was not interested. two weeks ago i got a woman that started riding him and was coming on nicely only lasted a week till the silly bloody horse decided to rip his legs open on fence and has been on boxrest since,having staples out monday so gonna try again
