I put my 2 year old mare out on loan last year she is not 3 till end of this month there loaner has backed her and has her in full work she was takeing to a trainer who told her to trun her away for about 6months this has not been done, the loan has broken her pelvis and has got someone else looking after and still rideing her I text asking what the pain was and that is what she told me she then text me saying would i sell her if not i would have to have her back i text back saying that i would not sell and i took this as her 30days notices and would be picking the horse up in 30 days she text back to me saying that she would not give her back and she was going to carry on with the loan. in a mouth she has refused to pay 2 vets bills. In the contract it says she is not to loan or lease the horse out and if she cannot care for her i can remove her. what do the people on hear think i will not be selling the horse when she comes back she will be truned away till next year. good or bad i would like to know what people think and what there would do if there were me
 
After picking up my jaw.....I'd say this.

Your horse is 3, correct? And the riding has caused a broken pelvis, correct?

What the heck are you hanging about for??

Swoop in, get the poor thing back and report the loaner for abuse to your poor baby horse!
 
When my loans went tits up, we deemed the loaner to have breached the contract and thus voided the 30 days notice.

Both horses were removed within a week, despite protests from loaners.

IMO your loaner has voided your contract and you should be firing up your box immediately, especially if the horse now has a broken pelvis.

Good luck.
 
Please tell me that this isn't true! :(

ETA. Ok it's the rider with the broken pelvis.

Go and get the filly straight away. No delays.
 
Are you winding us up?:confused:

Why would anyone loan their 2 year old, unless strictly as a companion? Totally floored me!

I would do my nut, turn up, catch it and load it! God help anyone who tried to get in my way!:mad:

Why did you loan your 2 year old? :confused:
 
Maybe the OP just didn't know that thay would ride it or...the OP just didn't know that horsey folk don't work 2 year olds because of the damage they know they can do as a result.
 
i loaned her out as i could not aford to keep her and did not whant to sell her also I was going to collage so did not have the time and thought this would be the best thing I never thought anyone would back a 2 year old, I thought I had done everthing right when I whent to see her she looked fine. I have found a field for her togo with shelter for her to be truned away on for a year. I am now in a good job.
 
Go and get het, no notice is needed as they are not correctly caring for your mare.
Turn her away, let her mature and then bring het back into work slowly.
Hopefully no petmenant damage has been done.

I'm glad that you are getting her back and turning her away - it shouldn't be too expensive to keep her in a field and of course now you have a job too.

I would just say that I have Manni (in my sig) on loan and the agreement I have with his owner is that she can collect him without notice if she thinks he is being mistreated in any way.
 
Go get her back.
By backing her (Omfg can't believe someone backed a 2 year old!) and by refusing to pay 2 vets bills you can void the one month.
Go and take the horse ASAP and then inform the loaner in writing as to why the horse was removed and what parts of the contract were breached.
I would just drop her a text saying you are coming for the horse now can she be ready - and bring the letter with you and give it to the loaner.

There is just no need to be nasty is there. Another person on here for advice, trying to do the right thing....has a positive action plan as a result.

The op didn't abandon the horse in a field to go to uni, she put it on loan. Now she is getting the horse back I expect she will check it daily, call the vet if there is a problem, have it's feet trimmed quarterly, teeth checked and annual jabs done, feed it hay as a minimum in winter (2% of body weight daily needed in hay when there is little nutrition in the grass - Oct. through to March depending on the weather), provide a clean constant supply of fresh water. Job done. Yes agree Wagtail, company crucial...needs other horses in field

Why do you feel the need to say such a put down?

So what did you think a loaner was going to do with a 2yo?
Why would anyone pay for the care and upkeep of someone else's horse in the knowledge that they couldn't ride it??

Now someone who is taking the mick! Taking on a 2 year old would be for companion basis only or with view to handle and then break when old enough. why on earth would a knowledgeable horse person even consider riding a 2 year old!?

Well I would take one if I needed company for mine....so long as the owner agreed to pay vet bills and not to take it back without a minimum notice period so mine was not left alone.
 
its gotta be a joke. thing is with us humans we are so predictable! people love drama! its prob some old man who likes ladies in jodds sat at a comp getting off on the drama. sorry if you are for real op< i highly doubt it! if you can produce piccys of said filly i will kind of be satisfied. but untill then PULL THE OTHER 1!!!
 
this is no wined up, I need advise you have all been very help fully if i new how to put pic on I would if someone would like to tell me how then i will put some on. when I got her she was 11months old had come all the way from wales she was in a dealers yard in a barn with about 10colts she had a rope around her so the men could get her you could see all her ribs and did not know how to stand i took her that day and got the vet to her i sleeped with her for 2 days to make sure she would be ok. If you think this is a wind up then you need to open your eyes more as some of the things going on with horses is bad and instand of people helping there stand there and judge everone else sorry if you do not like what i have put

Ok - fair enough. I'm a novice myself and the thought of loaning out a 2yo (on what sounds like a temporary basis while at college) seemed very odd to me but I can see they'd have a use as a companion and would probably be taught some herd manners at the same time.
Would have been an idea to have something in the loan agreement saying no riding / breaking.
 
Wind up or not, it doesn't matter. Comments like this really irritate me.

I take it then, that with a comment like that you know the OP, the horse in question and her situation intimately and in full, a lot can be left unsaid in a couple of lines. Are you the loaner? Or the loaners' loaner? Would you say that face to face?

:mad:God! There are some holier than thou bitches on here at times.

You, obviously, are absolutely perfect and have never, ever, made an error of judgement? Your comment is neither helpful, nor constructive.

OP, go get your horse back asap, hope that no harm has been done and let her grow on for a bit.
