I was originally in DIY livery in yard A
Loved it loved the people
Work meant I had to move location and commute 50 miles from work to horse

Decided to move horse to yard closer to home and only one that was decent was full livery

Took the plunge
Everything became a problem
From me wanting a shavings bed
Even though I told them this on viewing yard and they agreed

I paid for it and mucked it out everyday n this was a problem as they didn't want me doing it
Even thou they originally said I could

We're waiting til I left and throwing bed up the wall leaving just rubber May got horse to lie in
I complained ended in a row with nasty instructor and she had had a smug comment every time she sees my since (2 months ago)

Things came to a grass last night wen she told someone she was creeping on my fbook and said I bad mouthed the yard !!
Which I did not it was another liveries page that I commented on stating that the indoor was free every evening and that I was always abke to get arena at that time

I've decided to move back to yard A

I was happy there n now think the travelling is a small price to pay

It's cheaper better run has nicer ppl and all my friends there

Have paid livery a month in advance and they've told me I can go wen I like but made me feel awful as they said they think if me as family (owners not instructor)
But everyday I just dread her sky remarks n I've been told she deliberately firgot to feed my horse hard feed and only reason he was fed was because I came up to do it as always n she thought I wasn't coming up

I just think it's too much money to pay for that crspoy environment

Roll on the 1st

Can't wait to go home

Now dreading the whole drama that will unveil no doubt

Chocolate and buns for anyone who got this far lol
Just feeling a bit defeated
 
The problem seems to be with the instructor rather than the owners. Do they know you are leaving because of her?

And why is an instructor having anything to do with your horse?
 
I have told them that she is the issue I wasn't going to but thought they should know
Apparently I'm the 10th livery to leave because if her

The owners are lovely
The yard is lovely but this woman is a night mare

They have just said they have spoken to her and she will stop this behavior (2 nd tine they have spoken to her)

That their sorry to see me go n think if me as family

But I refuse to pay so much money for this woman to made snide remarks and make me miserable


Few weeks ago she told me I hadn't rode my horse at all that week
I had 6 times!!!
Including a hack jumping and 1hr lesson
Then wen I told her this she said wl wat I mean is ur obvs not working him enough !!

She's just mad!!
 
So she's ruining their business yet still presumably using their yard to earn money by giving lessons? What is wrong with this picture?! And why does she have anything to do with liveries outside of the school?
 
I'm still at a loss to understand why she has anything to do with your horse.......

If you like the yard and they look after your horse well just ignore her or tell her to 'do' one.
 
I have told her this in the first argument
I have no idea why she takes to do with my horse she works in the yard 3 days per week as stable hand / groom
And mucks out ect

Spoke to owners said it would happen again
She has done this 7/8 times in 2 months

Obvs dosent like me and had said I can't ride ect to other liveries and just been horrible.
Even asking one what I did in my horse that day ?!

I have no idea why she feels she can say/ do these things
I have done nothing on her
Am at a lose
Other livers say oh that's just her ignore her
But she can't see me ride or even go to leave she comes over n says something
Like
Ohh are u not jumping u chicken?
He's fat give him less haylage !!!

I actually think she's nuts
 
Yes basically
She works 3 days in the yard ur mucking out ect

And teaches the lessons

According to the other liveries she frequently has ppl in tears and then behaved for a bit wen told off then bk to usual behavior.

One livery told me she's had to have meeting with owners and instructor to keep the peace.

Yard is dearest about n can't keep liveries
The owner is lovely but this woman is nuts

She cuts corners
No beds just sprinkling of dust
No teeth done ect and wants to worm with cattle wormer cos it's cheaper !!

It's a Shane as the yard is 8 mikes from home and owners are lovely but it's not worth the Agro
 
Oh yes my point was she wanted to worm my horse with it and not tell me . . Just as she was doing school horses and told me she always died it as liveries haven't a clue about womers!

Que me having yet another row

I don't understand my self and have just had enough
I feel exhausted trying to work out y
Only thing I can think if is that I did two lessons with her them stopped as I didn't gel with het

Bet tomorrow will b fun wen she hears :/
