Well the time has come to admit that i am going to sell my horse!!
BUT I'm not sure how to make sure he has a good home as he has had a hard life and has been mis-treated in the past.
I took him on as i had just lost my Pony aged 25 - and thought a quite little TB would be good for me.....
BUT he's just too sensible - I know i should really appreciate him but he's been and done verything and i feel a bit of a fraud riding a horse who makes my riding look miles better than it is!
(BTW i know i sound mental)
Any way - he is about 13 years old 15.2HH bay gelding and LOVES dressage (which i'm not exactly thriled about doing) he'll jump and hack out all day - will be boxed shod clipped with no problems. (we're going Xc and hopfully hunting with the bedale this winter - if i still have him!)
His two bad points are - He has a scar on his back fetlock and he doen't like being fussed he doesn't do anything he just pulls faces - not really with me but new people.
So....(sorry this is a long post)..how do i find him a home who will love him AND not be put off by the grumpy faces he will pull when people come and see him - I would be prepared to let him go for a BARGIN price (like £1000) if it was a good home
What do you think what do i do?
