Wanted: New Best Friend
I'm 34 and I work from home. I live in Chellaston, Derby. I have two boys, 7 and 5. I haven't ridden since they were born, but I used to be proficient (can't say that I still am though!) I am looking to get back into the saddle now that my boys are in school. I am looking to start with a companion/light hacking horse - not out of being a novice, but because I was never one for jumping or shows! I was hoping to be able to take my boys out on a lead rein and hope that they catch the horsey bug so I can convince the husband that we NEED a horse:) I would like to ease us all back in gently so am only interested in horses that need/would like light riding/hacks rather than those preferring to work/jump as it wouldn't be fair on the horse to get loves and kisses all day if he prefers to run! I am looking ideally for a 14.5hh weight bearing Section D, or a 15hh+ of any other breed. My ideal horses are Shires or Clydesdales as that is what I used to ride when I was younger, but absolutely happy to consider any that need a bit of love. I am absolutely happy to contribute financially, do chores and will be purchasing own insurance to ensure he is safe whenever they are in my care. (And give you peace of mind!) Days are flexible.
