Hello, a friend of mine has only been riding for two years and is getting her own horse in August this year. Isn't that a bit too early?

Are you allowed to leave the paths and ride through the forest with your horse?

Hello everyone 🙂 I thought long and hard about whether to start this topic here, but now I've decided to do it. Perhaps someone has had similar experiences and can offer some advice. Please be respectful; this is a real struggle for me because people tend to pick on me right away! Now to us:…
Hello, my dears My pony was diagnosed with spavin a few days ago. On both sides, there's not quite as much missing on the right hind leg; the bone has completely ossified and grown together. On the left, it's beginning to develop spavin, so we still have the procedure ahead of us. My question is,…
With me at the stable, there are 10 years old with their own horses or ponies, which are well accompanied and perfectly clear. There are 30-year-olds who should never have their own horse. It depends on the circumstances and not on the age.
And if these 10-year-olds work or study in a few years or simply don’t want to have any more pleasure, the pony is the pony of the pitiful. Of course, this can also happen in adults, but they generally have more vision to make such a decision.
There is no guarantee in life. And to be honest, I have experienced so many young people who have been riding the horse and school/acabi/studium and have already had a lot of adults who had to sell their horse for financial reasons, for pregnancy, overwhelm, disinterest, divorce, profession or whatever. Horses are sold again and again. If it weren’t, nobody could buy one.
Don’t buy a horse because it might, under certain circumstances, possibly become difficult at some point, would mean that you should never buy a horse in principle.
My position is another as long as the basic conditions are correct. That these could change, I do not want to deny, but then you have to act responsibly.
Unfortunately, there are not too many sensible and knowledgeable parents in the stables I know.
A child is usually not alone with decisions of this kind. Future parents accompany their children
I’ve had other experiences with horse maids… and of course life circumstances can always change, but an adult can look better than a child.
I think it depends. In 2 years you can learn a lot with a snowy riding instructor, but of course the other way is.
For many, it is definitely too early at the age, but there are exceptions. If you are aware of everything with costs, care, etc. then this could work, but no one can really confirm that. Of course, we do not know whether it is with their parents’ financial resources and whether it is mature enough and that is not a phase.
I myself know a boy who has been riding his own horse for 8 years. He’s been riding for two years and was able to ride very well.
I hope I could help:))
I think it’s too early. First of all, the horse then belongs to the parents, not her, and at the age with so little experience she definitely needs help and further lessons. Apart from that, what if she doesn’t want to do with 16 or has no time with 20 for work or university? As a child, you can’t judge all this. A horse is responsible for up to 30 years or longer.
I got my own horse with 12 and it works because my mom is a horse-lover, we have her own farm and she shouldn’t take care of him.
Rightly it’s not your horse. And then you’re lucky you have a yard.
Yeah, and that’s what I said. I also got a horse when I was 13. I know the beautiful and the bad sides. And now, with 37, I know I was too young and inexperienced.
Of course, not legally, but I think we both know what the questioner means ^^
If parents are aware that ultimately they are responsible and the girl has someone who supports them, that can work. Unfortunately, there are many parents who are not quite aware of what comes to them. But this can only be done by riding experience, because with lessons you can learn more with your own horse.
No, because no one in Germany gets his own horse with 13.
It belongs to the parents and these responsible parents will care for the horse whether the “owner” is 13 years old.
Parents will have to handle everything.
And problems arise when the parents have no idea of horses. I have often seen that parents have bought their children a horse in young years and were totally overwhelmed with it.
That’s not the question…
Then the parents are not responsible.
No. If their elders aren’t standing there. I got my pony with 10 and I rode 4 years
It depends on the parents. If they are smart and clothed enough, a 3-year-old can also have a “own” pony…
Not if parents support this, no.
It’s okay if at least one parent has a lot of horse experience, e.g. even a horse.
No.
