I'm 5 months pregnant and unfortunately have come to the conclusion that I am far too big for my pony. In fairness, I was much too tall for him when I wasn't pregnant!
I absolutely don't want to sell him but at the same time, he's only 8 and I don't want to see him wasted either.
As a result, I've advertised for a rider for him. I'd like him to stay where he is but I'm totally flexible with regards to whatever a rider wants to do with him (within reason obviously). They're free to ride whenever they like, have lessons on him etc. I just want to see him being worked as he's too good to be a pet for the rest of his life.
My question is, if you were me, is it reasonable to ask for any financial contribution or is him being exercised payment enough?
