Am going to look at a pony and have never bought a horse or pony before. Plenty of riding experience and horsey friends to advise on what to ask. Need some advice on how much deposit I would expect to pay to hold subject to vetting? Presumably this is refundable if it fails. Am thinking of asking for short lwvtb as trial period, but not sure how to get an agreement drawn up if they say yes. Pony is advertised as £1000 ovno. Should I expect to just pay the full amount or is it normal to offer below that - thinking houses here . Any other advice on the formalities of actually completing the buying process would be a great help. Think I'm ok on actually assessing suitability, though I'd gladly take any pointers on that too - more daunting looking for a pony I can't ride for DD than something for myself!
