After a long search and 2 failed vettings, my new horse passed the vetting yesterday and is arriving today!! I am so nervous I might be sick, but it's all very exciting. He's my first horse and the vet thought he was perfect. Just had to share my nerves/excitement.....:D
 
Yeeeeeeeay, happy new horse, how exciting! I remember those nerves and then the minute he was on the yard I was just like pheeeew.
Hope all goes well today, piccies when he arrives please!

When the horse arrives & you put him in the stable for the first time & look over the door at him & realise the enormity of it all you'll probably well up inside, but in the good way. I know I did............. & I'm a bloke. Your whole life is now going to change, owning a horse isn't a hobby, it's a way of life. Enjoy! :)
 
Massive congratulations! My horse arrived on Tuesday night and I still feel sick with excitement/nerves! I too had a long search and a few failed vettings and it is the pits so I completely sympathise, I haven't quite realised yet that it has actually happened...

I second the cry for photos, that's the rule for new horse posts!

Really happy for you
 
OK, here are some pictures from his first few minutes in his new stable today.
First discovering the hay....

Then figuring out the automatic water.....

Then investigating whether there might be treats on offer....

I love him already!!
 
Congratulations! He looks gorgeous, very handsome.
As Mrs M said, welcome to the world of madness ..
And don't forget, you will now need to set direct debits up .. Half your earnings straight to the livery yard and the other straight to the tack shop ;-)
Be prepared for lots of happiness and fun though :-)
