Hi Guys,
So I am unsure if I need to be less grumpy and just get used to it . I really like the yard I am with my ridden gang . Until this one person can onto the yard at first it wasn’t to bad but now it’s starting to be irritating. I find I am avoiding riding at set time due to it .
So this women moved onto our yard at first it was just two horse . But I was aware more were coming . Now she has 8 on the yard with another one arriving this week . She also has 5 kids . So 4 horse are kids ponies . Since the ponies have arrived there are always kids running around playing shouting. My stuff is always going missing ie I leave stuff in the tack room it goes missing never happens previously. I found the kids using my hass brushes after they had been missing a week . When I asked where they got them as they are kept away in a grooming box for competitions with my name on . They said they found them on the floor which isn’t possible . Stuff is always missing whips, sponges, cloths, brushes etc
She doesn’t keep an eye on them when they are riding two are Particularly whizzy and gallops up behind you, rides at you the works .
My tack and equipment keeps getting moved in the tack room and store room as she “need” more space. My jump saddle was left on the floor taken off it’s saddle rack . When I asked why it has been moved the grooms said she did it . So I asked her why she said because I don’t use it so should take it home . I have 3 horses on the yard and have 4 saddle racks . May people have 1 horse and two saddle racks . I use the saddle once or twice a week.
The equines are as bad as the kids . One pony is constantly shouting , badly behaved in the school ie usually everyone rides together she has 2 that are nuts she doesn’t want you in the ring with meaning I get ready to ride and can’t ride. Then one is near the school and gallops up and down. To get my horse out of the field I have to walk through one of hers which I can’t do as it charges and paces at the gate. Then another is out near one of mine the grooms keep bringing him in early when asked why they said well the horse next to it doesn’t like been in on its own and it’s owners coming to ride it .
She seems to think she owns the yard now . Like the other day my friend arrived to practice my dressage test with me . I started warming up . She walked in and said my kids want to jump so can you hurry up . I explained I would be at least 30 minutes I had been in 5 minutes . So she started putting up jumps when I asked her to wait she said she didn’t have time . I said okay but could you not put them on the centre line so I can get down she then proceeded to put bounces up on the centre line .
This had to someone else on the yard the horse is spooky she asked then to wait until she got off to put jumps up and they didn’t the horse took off with its rider and they still didn’t stop . Since she put in the group chat if people want to get jumps / poles out please pop it in the group chat . She has ignored this and continued to do as she pleases .
Should i tell my yard own I have now had enough of the situation and am concerned for my safety too . Or do you think they will not do anything. Since she’s arrived a couple of long standing livery's have gone . My friend left as she said she was fed up of the kids in the school . It’s a meant to be a professional yard ?
