So I'm in the process of looking to buy. Have owned in the past but had a break for kids / uni / life...been sharing during this time. We've done our sums and, having owned in the past, I know the costs involved.
But I'm somewhat concerned by the massive number of horse for share adverts on social media. It seems people in their droves are needing sharers for their horses - is it really a bad idea to be buying a horse in the current economy when also juggling a fulltime job? Am I crazy to be considering it, when I could just continue sharing?
DH feels strongly that having a pony that's just "mine" would be really good for my mental health (which has been a bit ropey lately and my share horses are the only thing that really got me through - but it's not quite the same as having your own, and they cant do all the things I'd like to do). I dont want to end up actually making things worse.
