So I've been riding for 6 years now and finally the time has come to buy my own horse. Thats not the problem though. I have only been looking for about a month, and the first horse I visited I have fallen in love with, he is absolutely everything I'm looking for. Now for the problems
The owner is going away to college and wants him out by mid August. I can't take him until September 1st. Where I went to ride him it was hilly. I doubt hes lame. He had a little trouble with his tempo on the down hill, but i was thinking it was lack of butt muscle and balance [[he hasn't been ridden seriously in a year]]. I want to take him on a trial for a week to make sure he isn't lame, will adjust well, get a vet check, ext. The girl sounds iffy about letting me take him. She says that he came very close to selling once but the woman just wasn't ready to take on another horse. I really like him and the girl says that we click really nicely, there are a few problems that we need to deal with first.
