So, I've been leasing a Morab 'Nanjo's Dudley Do Right' for almost a month now. Everything has been fantastic, yesterday i did my first CTR with him, and we did awesome, we got 6th place (really good considering how round he is)
But his owners are REALLY pushing me to buy him, and I just can't afford that much money at my age... It's impossible for me to come up with that sort of money. So I didn't know if I should keep leasing him or if I should look for another horse.
Tonight Carla and Dieter ran an idea past me, that maybe I could buy thier one Arab, Tio, from them for $2,500. I'll be getting the check soon in the mail from the auction for Duke it will be almost $1,400 plus I've got almost $900 saved up.
Tio is an 18 year old grey arab who has done almost 3000 miles in his life, I will never make him do 50 or 100 miles, because he deserves to somewhat retire. He is 100% bombproof. literally. He is about 15hh. I think he's pretty cute. And in 2 years when I am off to College and what have you, I have an automatic buyer, little Becca, she LOVES him and will have already outgrown her pony. And I know he will have a great home. I'm not totally sure I havn't even ridden Tio yet, but I'll soon find out if I like him.
