Now I have a dogs. I have them because I love their characters how much they just 'give' and never want anything back but a scratch. I choice them I knew the finanical implications of having them (all 3 of them) now when I have to go away I 'pay' for some one to walk, feed and cuddle them. In my eyes I am passing on the pleasure of being around them. Now I work full time and do deploy for weeks/months at a time so I have to find someone to look after my boys and girl but I PAY. When I broke my arm I had to still pay for someone to walk them as I couldn't.
Now in the horse world we buy horses because of the love of the animals but when the owners can for what ever reason know longer give the horse 100% we ask for help but we expect people to pay us!!!!!!!:frown: and not just for the pleasure of riding. Horses are very expensive to keep but we made that call when we brought them and yes some one is getting the pleasure of riding your horse but someone is also getting the pleasure of being around my dogs.
If you need someone to exercise your horse because you dont have time that person is actually offering you a service so should you not be paying them:frown:
SO
For what every reason as an owner you need either help with the actually care or you dont have time to ride surely you should pay for someone to carry out this service for you (As is livery)
