How many horses do you own!

[rara007]

2 horses 2 ponies at (parents!) home. 11 in total there as we have 3 retirees and my sister and brother in law have 4 little ones.

 

[Beausmate]

Three, two are mine and one is technically OH's but I do most of the hands-on stuff. Kept on rented land a couple of miles away.

 

[Steerpike]

Technically I own 4 outright, 4 I own half of with someone else and the other 5 are owned by someone else, so I have 13 at home!

 

[dreamcometrue]

One on DIY livery.

 

[meleeka]

Two of my own plus a family members one. I used to have five which seems quite a common amount. I've lost four and gained one in the last 6 years.

 

[Spot the Merry Risk]

When I was at livery, one in DIY.

When we got our own land a minimum of three, sometimes up to five.

 

[dorsetladette]

3 on land a few minutes drive from home, they live with 3 sheep and a few chickens.

 

[Titchy Reindeer]

Too many!
I have 4 at home. Only one coming back into work after maternity leave. One oldie and two youngsters.

 

[Errin Paddywack]

One pasture ornament kept on my sister's field 5.5 miles away. Had up to 11 at one point when we were still on the farm. No longer ride.

 

[teacups]

The title of your thread is only going to attract people who own, not share, possibly ; )

I have one on full loan.

 

[MuddyMonster]

I own one - kept at a local DIY livery yard (although I use a freelancer for additional help). I've owned another one before current horse but have zero interest in having more than one horse at a time!

Before I owned I shared & loaned my way through school, college & uni. I think it's always been a popular option.

 

[tda]

I have 5 at home, tho own 8 in total. I'm trying to cut down

Edited, remembered another, I own 9 in total

 

[sarcasm_queen]

4 at home

 

[eggs]

I am down to 2 (both 20 and home bred) at home having recently had the two oldest pts. At one point I did have 15 at home.

 

[St Nicnaclaus]

4.
3 at home of which two are in full work and t'other is a shetland.

4th is out on loan kept at their home with 4 others.

 

[CastlelackSportHorses]

3 kept at home.

 

[Amy May In A Manger]

None, and dont miss it at all. Dont even ride anymore.

Same. Most I had was two, on DIY.

Now I ride once a year when my family comes to stay.

 

[ElleSkywalkingintheair]

5 at home, did have 6 earlier in the year as I acquired my favourite pony's baby (baby is 20!) and they had 6 weeks together before my little precious one died unexpectedly. It lovely to have her baby though as they are very very similar in looks but personalities are very different

 

[MNMyShiningStars]

7 !!! 2 ridden ones, 2 oldies, a 3 year old, a yearling and a shetland (he's on full loan but with us at the moment). The yearling and one of the oldies are off site in different fields due to lack of space on rented yard, so it is hard work. Should cut down really, so we are thinking of selling the 3 year old welsh

 

[Alibear]

3, 1 on livery near me and in work, and a 3 year old and yearling at the stud they were born at. 3-year-old might come home to livery next year or the year after; I'll be looking for a sharer for the older mare then, mainly so I have someone to ride out on the youngster with.

 

[AandK]

I own 1 kept at DIY livery nearby. Had 3 at one point, but has been just the 1 for a little over 2yrs now.

 

[Flowerofthefen]

2 on livery

 

[I'm Dun]

1 but hes on loan and isnt ever coming back to me. I dont share or even ride now. I dont miss it. What I miss is MY horses. 2 went to brilliant homes, the other 1 is missing probably not in a great place and I deeoly, deeply regret selling her. Most I've had is 7, far too many!

 

[skint1]

I own 2, one at DIY that I ride, though she's currently off with a slight lameness, and one retired living with a friend who needs a companion for her horse.

 

[Ittookawhile]

1 on assisted livery. I do everything except that the yard bring her in for me during the winter so that she’s not left as the only one in the field when I’m at work.

 

[FlyingCircus]

3, but I'd prefer 2. 3 is too many So I have no idea how people cope with more!

ETA: 2 are home and 1 is away for training

 

[NeverSurrender]

2 on part livery 10/15 mins from home - 1 ridden, 1 driven

 

[irishdraft]

2 at home x

 

[Muddywellies]

Blimey most people here have them at home. Tiny bit jealous. I have two. One at grass, one on diy.

 

[Time for Tea]

Two at home, now. Have had 3 and 4 for quite a while, but trying to keep things easy now. Would like to get them into local farm DIY livery which is amazing, but nobody ever leaves!
