For those that know me in real life, they know that this has been on the cards for a while. Firstly, I must say a huge thank you to Roo’s owner, Liz, for giving me the opportunity to have Roo for the last 18 months. He taught me a very valuable lesson, to enjoy horses for fun not just for competition. A lesson you would think I didn’t need but I most certainly did and it has totally changed my perspective on goal setting and doing riding activities for fun not just for training.
Roo is the most dependable, safe and reliable horse I’ve ever ridden. He never quits but he doesn’t work harder than he has to, there are no surprises, he tells you exactly what you need to know. You put him in a gear and he stays in that gear, he’s excellent in traffic, if he’s unsure he just stops and waits.
But it was time for him to find a new human who would really appreciate all this and after seeing a wanted ad on Facebook that basically described Roo, I reached out to see if they would like to come and meet him. A few weeks later and he had a 5 stage vetting and was sold to the most lovely home where I know he will be cherished and they will have a lovely time together. I wish them the best of luck for the future and many happy adventures.
Thank you Roo for all the fun, all the life lessons and for being such a cool dude when I needed you most.
