Barn Issues... Help???????

Well, before I go and pay the $175, I would talk to the barn owner. Just explain that your horse is VERY happy at this barn, but you aren't. Tell her that you don't want to leave because you like the barn, but you feel that she could be more respectful. You are the boarder, and YOU should be treated better than that. Tell her that if it doesn't stop, then you're going to be forced to move to another barn.

After, explaining the issue, if it doesn't stop. I would move. As long as you like this other barn, and it's good enough, I would move. If you don't like it that much, but you just say you do because you REALLY don't like how you are treated at the current barn, then don't move. Just put up with, and maybe even look for a barn farther than 20 minutes away, but with nicer people.

GOOD LUCK WITH THIS!

Get the individuals of the barn mutually and function a gathering. communicate what the ideas are, then present day a united front to the proprietors. If everyone stands mutually, possibly you could instill replace. in spite of the indisputable fact that, i would not affiliate with cheating human beings besides. If this have been me, i might discover someplace else to board my horse and get my acquaintances to maintain on with. Then, i might detect a sparkling coach, one which may be up for the assumption of beginning some thing new and greater effective. i will wager there are some human beings on your section that are additionally large at preparation and only have not got here across the clientele and are finding for an risk like this.

wel firstly, ''using someone'' implies something of a deceptive nature. But since its pretty straight forward that u dont want to drive and u give gas money... I see it as a mutual agreement not ''using''. So she is just way off the mark there...

As for the other behaviour...i cant tell u whether its worth moving because i dont know to what extent u are able to personally ignore her. If i were in the situation and she just came around every now and then with her annoying self, i would ignore her , love on my horse ,go home and enjoy the cheaper board.

How is your financial situation? Is this person worth extra cost for you? In other words which is easier for you, ignoring her? Or paying a bit extra?

You sound very young.

Next time BO accuses you of using your friend, simply ask her "How is it I'm using her if I'm paying for gas money to get here?" Let her state her point, and if she continues, then say something to the effect of...."Well, I suppose I could move my horse to a farm where I can WALK to...." and let her figure it out.

Honestly, the BO having an opinion on how your horse behaves now, so long as he's SAFE, is a non issue. Frankly, I'd be more concerned about you riding in traffic than how you got him to that point in his training. Your training methods are no concern of hers, and until she sees you doing something unsafe, she really has no leg to stand on. I'd gently ask her if she'd like you to move, since she's obviously so disapproving of you, your horse's training, and how you get to her farm.

Maybe the loss of board income will shut her up.

There are plenty of other nice barns where your horse can be equally happy. There is no reason for this person to disrespect you, HER CUSTOMER, on such a regular basis.

you offer her money, youre not using her. Tell the barn owner your situation. I honestly think it is something that will pass once you get the courage again.

my dad went off a cliff in his car and we still dont know how he didnt get hurt + he climbed back up with his suit in his arm. Take your time.
