Hi, new here and I'm in the hugely exciting position of waiting for our first pony to arrive at the weekend. We've been very lucky to get rental on a lovely stable and grazing on a small yard a stone's throw from home and seemingly a wonderful, quiet 13.2 hh cob gelding. We've loaned ponies (one for me and one for my 6 year old daughter) this past 18 months but owning seems a big new adventure.
I've done my best to be prepared, but I'd still say I'm novice in riding and horse care (having lessons at a riding school as I'd had 15 years absence from the saddle before loaning!)
What are your top tips? Looking forward to hearing your replies xx
