With Ryan’s help I found the perfect horse (Scotland)
When my current horse developed a health issue and I took the really hard decision to retire him , a really good friend recommended Ryan. I was looking for a dressage horse suitable for a hobby dressage riders compete at elementary / medium level. I had a modest budget , which I could not exceed, and the horse had to be safe, sane and sensible.
Ryan sent me videos and pictures of a couple of horses, then we decided to do a day trip to Holland. Armed with a day return Easy Jet ticket , I met Ryan at Schiphol Airport. I looked at four horses varying ages and training.I will admit that I felt very self conscious and intimidated riding in front of the Dutch owners and riders. Ryan was a real gentleman and came into the arenas with me , told them he was my trainer and worked with me and the horse. With Ryan’s help I found the perfect horse. He organised the vetting , which was emailed to me along with the X-rays , and organised the transport . My horse was picked up from the Dutch yard on the Monday and delivered to my doorstep in Scotland on the Friday. There was no hassle with papers passports etc , this was all taken care for me.
It was a really fun stress free experience. I had a wonderful time in Holland and have a wonderful horse.
