Now I know why people don't sell horses

[dwi]

I can't sleep, I can't eat, I feel sick, I can't concentrate. I feel like I'm selling my child.

She's amazing for me but doesn't behave perfectly when other people try her. Good, but not perfect. My feeling is that it can take up to 6 months to really get to know a horse and get the best out of it, just don't know how to show her to her best on a rainy sunday afternoon in winter with a half hour slot in the school.

So do a video of her and bless her she most probably doesn't know why strange people are getting on her back giving her signals she doesn't understand.

Tell me about it! This is why we only did the one bring on to sell horse, just wasn’t worth the grief! The best one was the girl who wanted a County Level Show Cob who was too scared to get on our very novice ride cob, umm, I think you will find show cobs move, a lot!

Don't worry the perfect person will turn up!

Oh I am really dreading this as it looks like we will have to sell at least one of ours this year :-(
