I've had three lessons on my new pony and I feel like we're really progressing. I'm certainly learning a lot and I love having my own horse. My instructor was approached by someone who asked if they could use my horse for lessons. She would charge him her fee for lessons, but the pay-off for me is that the pony is getting exercised. However, I plan to ride five days a week so I'm not sure that's a good enough incentive to let a stranger take lessons on my pony. (He would be covered under his own insurance, by the way.)
I honestly don't know how I should feel about it. On the one hand, it is nice that he'll be exercised on days I can't get over to see him. On the other, I worry that his bond with me won't be as strong if he's riding with other people. I dunno. What do you think? Is there any compelling reason I should allow this guy I don't even know ride my new pony?
