Authors: Belinda Rapley
Whether you're looking for a riding school or a yard to stable your pony, my tips will help you avoid what Pixie went through at Compton Manor!
First, write a list of what you want from a yard or a school.
Â
Take your list with you when you visit all the yards and riding schools.
When you walk in, does everyone make you feel really welcome?
If you’re looking for a yard, are the ponies’ haynets full and their beds clean?
If you’re checking out a riding school, watch a couple of lessons to see what the teaching is like.
Do the ponies look well-groomed and happy?
Take as much time as you can to decide, it should be perfect for you and your pony pal!
