As we mentioned in the last issue, we\u2019ve got a new working pupil who has made a real difference to the place. We\u2019ve just been doing the bare necessities for so long now it\u2019s a real pleasure to have some help catching up with those extra jobs. The horses are appreciating all the extra grooming since they all turned into woolly mammoths this winter, and are anxious to get back to their summer wear. The fields are clear of muck, the fencing works, the lawns are mown. Two stables that were full of junk were cleared\u00a0 out ready for a full clinic, and we\u2019ve got a new feed shed.\u00a0 I wouldn\u2019t dare to say we\u2019re on top of things, but they\u2019re less on top of us now!<\/p>\n
Our campaign to turn some of our free-loaders into earners is going well. There\u2019s been some interest in a couple of the horses and our \u201cleasing\u201d scheme. The idea is that instead of owning a horse and having all that responsibility, the right person would take on one of our lovely beasts, have full access to them as if they were their own, pay us livery, be able to come on clinics and have on-going support from two of Intelligent Horsemanship\u2019s most long-standing Recommended Associates, but not have to worry about long term commitment.\u00a0 Lots of people seem to think it\u2019s a good idea – it\u2019s just a question of finding the right person for each horse!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
