Why do horses have to get under your skin so much?
After 18 months with our lovely boy we need to start the painful process of selling him and finding something larger. It has come sooner than we thought, originally guessed we'd have him for 2/3 years, but Jess' legs are getting so long that we can't avoid it much longer.
Things aren't being helped though as matters are speeding along quicker than I expected - he's not up for sale yet but someone who knows him is interested and looking for a pony for their daughter. They want to come and see him asap and potentially he could be sold within the week.
Jess is really stuggling with it and cries often and half of me wants things to happen quickly to 'get it over with' but the other half wants to put off the inevitable for as long as poss.
I know that there's no answer but just needed to let it all out... Just wish we didn't have to fall in love with these ponies of ours - it wouldn't hurt so much!
