| Yeah, that horse did buck vety often. Another one kept stopping at random and backing up/refusing to go forwards. They later had to put him to sleep, I never found out why. And a third, when asked to canter, would run around in trot and you couldn't make her go slower or faster. This got worse and worse until they retired her because of some back issues |

| @jester lol Yes! I could never get a snake THAT big, definitely not as a first pet. O.o |
| Wraithcry Farm |
| Retics are awesome though. Generally speaking spicy as babies but big dogs as adults. I wish they were legal here. I have a boa though and he should get 8 foot at least. He is a sweet boy. |

| Im East Midlands, Oak. There is one I could borrow at the yard I worked at, but Im pretty sure it would be too big |

| Lol gem love how hes taking a peek like "Whatcha got there? Is for me?" XD |
| Gemstone Stable |
| Looking through criaglist... found a 14foot snake with its head on a kitchen counter. I would have never imagined that! O.o -Click- |

| raven, that does Not sound great at all! I hope that horse wasn't in pain, but it's terrible that the instructor didn't even seem to care |
| Wraithcry Farm |
| Yeah no. An instructor is supposed to instruct you on how to handle situations like that. Whiskey is super spooky. I have to keep his head down and mind busy or we are off to the races. The first time it happened me and my instructor broke down what had happened and what to do next time. That is her job, that is what I have hired her for. Now she has become a friend over the couple years I have been there but she still works with me. I have taken lessons from her and now have my horse there. |

| that's definitely a red flag, like the horse was in pain and they just didn't care |

| Min, I know a few western people in the UK depending on where you are! I tried one on Woody and love it, I just need to save to be able to buy one lol |
| Ravenwood Farm |
| The last straw was when this one horse kept behaving oddly and bucking for seemingly no reason. We were just walking on long reins and I wasn't doing anything. He must have had his reasons, I'm not blaming him. But the instructor kept downplaying it and not even paying attention or offering any advice at all |
| Wraithcry Farm |
| I have several. But all of mine were way too small for Whiskey. So I traded one and got one that fits him perfectly. |
| Minerva |
| I need to try and find somewhere round here where I can try a western saddle- I feel like it would be quite nice to start Ted in one as im hopefully a bit less likely to fall off 🤣 |
| Wraithcry Farm |
| Oh yeah for sure. I am having to buy all equipment and while I do have a good job I am not rich by any means. But I found a Western saddle that fits him and is beautiful. |
| Silver Melody Acres |
| you have to buy one, so only a decent goal if you'd like to do exploring on a regular basis it's a great thing, in my opinion, but not a 'got to get it now' kind of deal lol |
