Horseback riding (Rider looking) - Dear horse owners, I am looking for a new riding horse, as my old one has unfortunately been sold for health reasons. First of all I would like to mention that at my age it is unfortunately very difficult to find a riding horse, as most owners are rather focused on older horses. Therefore, I would be very happy if you would put this focus aside and read through the following key points.
- I am 15 years old, weigh 55kg and am 1.70 tall. - I am mainly english ridden but would also be interested in western riding (just have no to little experience there unfortunately). -I ride recreationally, so I'm not interested in competing. -Riding is not the most important thing for me. I prefer to deal with horses/ponies and to build up trust, especially through ground work and walks. I love to learn from horses/ponies and to teach them new things as well, so nobody loses fun and the time together with the horse/pony becomes more diversified. -When the weather is good I love to ride out but I also have fun on the arena or in the hall (if available). -Stable work, grooming and cuddling are all part of the job for me and I usually spend more time grooming and cuddling than riding. -I am absolutely weatherproof. -The welfare of the horse is always my top priority. -I am a bit crazy and sometimes even manage to make mucking out the paddock fun. Therefore I am always open for new things and like to adapt. -Through many different riding schools, I am used to a wide variety of horses and ponies and can handle just about any special effect. - I have been riding for 11 years and have successfully completed the RA10, RA9, the RA8 as well as the vaulting badge 9. -As far as mobility is concerned I am dependent on my parents, my bike and buses, which is why a stable near Solingen Ohligs would come in very handy, but we can also talk about further distances. -I could take over the horse/pony 2 times a week (in case of emergency 3 days can be planned). -It is very important to me to get to know you and your horse/pony beforehand because we all want the best for each other and it would be a pity if there are problems between people or between the horse/pony and me and then everyone has to start looking again.
Thanks for reading. I would be very happy to receive a reply.
