never advertised or looked on the open market before, sharers have come through existing contacts before so it's exciting and a bit scary . . .
I think I want someone who can commit to a regular (3x a week?) riding and split the costs 50/50, does that sound fair? The difficult bit is describing the pony, I know he is a much much much more manageable beast than the one I bought but I feel cold and wibbly in the tummy at the thought of even a confident child/teen riding him. To me he is always going to be the pony who does handstands unexpectedly although really he hardly ever does that now.
And - how do you vet people? I always think everyone is nice and fairly normal and yet, this is the horse world, most people are not. Do you have a trial period, ride out with them a lot, what?
