Horses for loan

[Chellebean]

Are there many out there? I am toying with the idea of getting a second horse whilst Ollie is getting fixed (wont be rideable until April time). I need something to focus on as I was told that they aren't going to operate on me and that I need to work on my core muscles! Riding is the best way to do this and the only exercise I really enjoy lol

So I would be looking for something sane and sensible for loan for a while, preferably a middle weight type! Does anyone know of any thing?

surely you won't get someone willing to loan you there horse for 4 months?

 

[Chellebean]

It wouldn't be for four months!! That is when my boy would be due to return to work, but would look to keep a loan for longer

Some people will do short term loans of 6 months.

I know of a lot of people looking for a share/ part loan but not so many wanting a full loan. I suppose its better then nothing atleast you still get to ride, best of luck finding something

swimming is the best form of exercise after riding!

Don't have anything on loan but for core muscles you could try sitting on one of those inflatable gym balls. The kind folk on here recommended it to me for my core muscles and its pretty good. Not quite a horse but it is dynamic in the same way. I watch telly sitting on it and lift one foot off the floor at a time

thanks shall have a look into that Jess! The riding part is more for my sanity I think then anything lol Shall carry on with the hugs for Ollie until I sort something out

I am a picture of elegance and attractiveness you cheeky mare! I think the fact I do it whilst stuffing my face with pizza and slurping tea only adds to the effect!

Well if you get really desperate and your over in east angular I have a brown horse who does a very good impression of a gym ball you can try

I too am looking but sadly....as per the other thread re horse to loan...people are really reluctant to allow their horses to go out on loan, I am struggling to find one.

I hope you find a suitable horse and hope Ollie gets better soon
