Where do you fit?

[The Xmas Furry]

We are a good mixed bunch of folk on here, I did a poll on this a few years ago but we've had the usual changes of new users coming in and old ones going out.
Where do you feature with horses? Just generally.....

Poll coming up....and I'm sure I've missed some options!

 

[quiteniceforacob]

Owner but not riding? That’s not me but maybe an option. goodness it really is a mixed bag!

parent of rider? Must be a couple on here

 

[Muddy unicorn]

I’m lots of others ? - parent of rider, owner/caretaker of retired horse plus riding school rider

 

[Spotherisk]

I’m an other - owns one but he is retired.

 

[Gallop_Away]

Owner/rider of 3 ?

 

[TheresaW]

I have 3 (1 on loan). Can’t remember the last time i rode. Probably about a year ago.

 

[rowan666]

I'm an owner of 3 but I don't really ride anymore ?‍

 

[Nudibranch]

Owner of 3, one is out on loan and I ride and drive but that wasn't an option!

 

[twiggy2]

Taking a break and working on the estate owners

 

[Rumtytum]

Riding school rider and an oldie too, I lurked for a long time before joining as I wasn’t sure there was a place for people like me. But there is and I’ve felt very welcome.

 

[nagblagger]

Only 1 ride-able, too many 'retired/rescued' , 1 mule and 3 donkeys, do they count?

 

[chaps89]

An ‘other’ here too!
1 retired on loan to me, 1 with me on retirement livery and I ride anything I can get my grubby mitts on ? 2 that I ride regularly though

 

[Mrs. Jingle]

I retired not rideable, 1 very rideable but the other side of the country being looked after by his previous owner until I am fit to ride him again and bring him home. Oh and of course, my two donkeys.

 

[EmmaC78]

Own two but only ride one of them.

 

[scruffyponies]

Own (or LTL) 10, ride and drive most of them.

 

[Sam_J]

Owner of one who is out on loan and I'm currently hacking and/or schooling my friend's horse when time permits.

 

[Snow Falcon]

My pony (currently off), 1 outgrown & 1 v.v close to being outgrown by son and a semi-feral running the forest.

 

[daydreamer]

I picked owner and rider of 1 as the best fit but actually I own a youngster and do a share to keep up my riding. Youngster is rising 4 though so fingers crossed I can crack on with him this year!

 

[HashRouge]

I put myself down as owner and rider of two, but really, I own two retired horses and ride one horse that belongs to someone else. Maybe I should have put other!

 

[teapot]

Riding school rider at one place; manage the client side at another.

This year things will change I hope!

 

[TinseLeneHorse]

I put owner and rider of one, though I am currently not riding due to injury.

 

[TheHairyOne]

Other here too! I own 1, look after another 5 with my sister, which involves riding, long lining the kids pony, and all the rest of the day to day jobs!

 

[Berpisc]

Owner of 4 ponies some old, one from sanctuary (so not quite owned), I no longer ride so put other

 

[shortstuff99]

Owner/ rider of 3 . One Advanced dressage horse, one rising 4 year old who I am backing and one jumping/ alrounder cart horse. Hoping to add another baby this or next year ?

 

[ArklePig]

I'm a sharer. I hope if we do this thread next year I'll be an owner

 

[splashgirl45]

i am a retired owner after owning for over 50 years but now am riding once a week on someone elses horse so i should really tick 2 options but i opted for the first

 

[Caol Ila]

I ticked owner and rider of two, but I only ride one at the moment because the other is an unbacked 3-year old.

 

[COldNag]

Owner of 2 but rider of none One is out on loan, other will shortly retire.

 

[nikicb]

Wasn't sure whether I was 'other', but opted for 'Owner and rider of 3 or more' - own 3, ride one of them - the other two are retired.

 

[laura_nash]

I went for owner and rider of 2, but am actually owner of 2 and rider of 1, parent of the rider of the other.
