Am currently sharing a bit of a project with an owner. He is a young horse who we started over the summer. Took to everything well in terms of having bridle/saddle on, carrying a rider, ambling round in circles with a rider etc. Super chilled out start.
Unfortunately the owner is now less available and so progress has stalled.
This is my first horse although I’ve been riding for some time so I don’t feel able to continue progressing him without the (very experienced) owner’s support.
Am considering the possibility of looking into a professional yard for riding away and getting him some experience.
Does anyone know anywhere in Kent/SE that they would recommend. Also a ballpark figure for how much I would need to be willing to pay to get someone good (PM if prefer).
I absolutely know in my head I should just walk away from this one but he is the kindest most honest sort and I feel bad for him that his actual owner has completely lost interest.
