Just reading through some comments on an H&H article about sharers and experiences. While I know there must be some nightmare sharers out there it reminded me of some crazy owner stories I've experienced and heard
I saw an ad a couple of years ago looking for a sharer. Lovely horse on what sounded like a great yard but only competing elementary in teens so not an out of this world opportunity - the contribution was around £750 a month! If I were going to spend that much I'd buy my own youngster to bring on.
Another good one was somebody who contacted me to offer the ride on their horse which they didn't ride themselves because it reared whenever anybody got on. They said I didn't need to pay anything but if I could school it out of the rearing then once it was rideable then perhaps I could then pay a monthly contribution (what a reward for the hard work!)
Luckily I've had some fantastic experiences with brilliant owners too. Having had my own as well I always think it must be so hard finding and getting used to having a sharer
Any other CF sharer/owner stories out there?
