OH's gelding is getting on - there is no doubt that we have to be realistic and due to his health problems we have both said that we can't see him continuing to have a "working life" for much longer than say the next 12 - 18 months. We are both realistic and I think we'll know when the time is right to let him have a well deserved rest. OH thinks I'm daft, but I'm worried sick about getting another horse for him. I am so happy with our pair and feel so settled now we're all at home together I am loathe to bring more trouble to our doorstep I am worried about how JOe will cope with an addition (is 3 a bad number?) and worried how we'll cope handling wise / riding wise. Not like we're complete novices - we've both owned for 5 years plus, but all the same you get used to one particular horse!
Sorry if I sound a wimp, but does everybody feel like this, ie, apprehensive? I daren't even start looking yet! I have been putting it off
Any thoughts much appreciated.
