My dad recently built another indoor school for our yard so we now have 2 indoors and 2 outdoors. I spent last night setting up and building a lovely course for my lesson this morning with my trainer who has brought me up a horse to try. Booked the school as i normally have it 4-6 so changed it early last week to 11-1 today so i could try this horse over my course. Got down with my trainer and my beautiful course was a stack of poles and wings in the middle and one of the liveries lunging their horse and my polite notice to leave the course up in her hand! Hmph. It really annoyed me as she was then really rude and nasty to me. It wasn't as though we were busy as no one else was on the yard except myself and her.
Sorry To Rant just really got me in a mood.
Any way the horse i was trying is lovely and my trainer has lent him to me to hack out and try. Only slight quibble i have is that he has a slight pressure sore on his withers that looks to have been caused by a rug (further forward than saddle) how would i prevent these from happening again and what should i treat it with. Being quite fine i think he still needs a rug on but i dont want to aggrevate it any further.
Cheers Guys xx
 
So, this is your yard? And your livery broke your rules and was rude to you?? Blimey!! I would never ever break the rules anywhere full stop but to be rude to the owner of the yard - ridiculous!! I hope you had a few words with her (in a calm and professional manner of course).
 
Was there a reason she couldn't use one of the other schools?

A half neck or full neck rug should help take the pressure off the withers.
 
I was going to say exactly what minkymoo did!

And of course, we need pictures of the new horse!

As for the livery - couldn't she have used the other school? I am thankful when I hear things like this that my yard doesn't have a school of any description! Stops the nastiness!
 
That sounds outrageous. Esp if there are other schools available and you booked it well in advance and it is also your family's place.
If all the above are true I would be giving her a serious talking to if I were you.
 
yup its our yard. I rang mum as shes in charge and she said shes going to have words. There was no reason not to use any of the other schools. I shall take some piccies of the new neddie he;s gorgeous and shall take a piccie of the pressure sore. Do bossy bibs have a website? I've stuck a rambo dust buster on him for the moment but shall take that off and give it a clean with some anti bac stuff. We are lucky with our liveries as they normally are so good and not bitchy and keep themselves out of arguments. Cheers For the reccomendations

Amazes me how some people can behave. Bloody cheek! We had a no. of incidents like this over the years - people behaving completely unreasonably being rude and throwing toys out of pram over trivial things. Many a time I thought whose home and yard is this?! Now no liveries - hoorah - bliss!
