I was wondering if anyone knew of a good livery yard that offers full livery with riding for my 5 year old arab? i was looking for a place in the North East/North Yorkshire area. i havent got much money but i am currently selling him due to my ill health and the fact that he has grown way too big. He is now 15.3 and i am finding it difficult to ride etc. i was diagnosed with ME and now fibromyalgia and his training has gone down the pan as i cannot ride. He is a good lad but needs someone to give him something to think about instead of stuck in a field or stable. i love him to bits and am sad to see him go. i have had a few enquiries but they havent got back to me yet. however, it would be nice to see him doing something to show him off and get a good home. thank you
Oh, I'm sorry that you're struggling at the moment. This must be heartbreaking for you.
Have you thought about putting him out on a short-tern full loan? Would be more economically viable than full livery, I can imagine. I know that here, at least, full livery is around £100/week, whereas there must be people out there who are temporarily horseless and would welcome the opportunity to ride and school him for you while you find him a new home. Just a thought!
Hi Iris! Yes, i have thought about that! He is advertised here on Arabian Lines (Emir). i have put him on a few others saying that i would accept a loan. I might put an ad out asking for that as i want to see him doing something. cant sleep at night at the moment worrying about him! it isnt the fact that i am selling him thats giving me sleepless nights... it is the fact that i feel guilty because i cannot ride him and he is getting bored and i feel sooo guilty! thanks for the kind words. it is very heartbreaking x
How awful for you. He is a lovely horse and it is heartbreaking to be in your situation. I'm sure something will turn up for you. Thinking of you both xx
The Soul would have no Rainbow....If the Eyes had shed no Tears.
What about Tina Bennett? - she is up that way and has a lovely yard with fabulous facilities. She would be ideal to help you sell him. Google Aklah arabians.
BTW - i think Emir is lovely - i have his half sister!
HELP!
