Question

i'm a beginer. so i need help

Answer 1

If you are looking for a calm quiet trained horse be very careful! Take someone with you to look at horses, since you can't ride them yet. I was a beginner a couple of years ago, and I had to go thru about 6 horses before I finally found one that is trained enough for me and I paid $2800 for him. He is worth every penny. The cheaper ones are for sale for reasons, take someone with you! Even now I have the owner ride the horse for awhile so I can watch them, and I always ride within a round pen for safety. Be aware of the cheap ones, do alot of homework on the internet too.
Many times a good horse owner will allow you to take the horse for a week to try him out. Ride him within a round pen for safety and then when you feel safe go outside of the pen. It takes awhile to learn, there are alot of things to learn! I made the mistake of going cheap, I'll never do that again!

Answer 2

Be very careful when buying a horse, the price of the horse depends on what you are looking for, the price of a really cheap horse can sound great but ask yourself this if its so cheap why, is there something wrong with it, medical, temperment etc? If you are lucky enough to find a horse within your price range do not buy it without having a vet check it out, its well worth the money. You should also know that the price of the horse is not the biggest factor, If you have to board your horse it can be very expensive, the upkeep, food, vet bills, maintaining proper care of their feet with a farrier is essential and costly. Take all of this into consideration first then decide if you can afford to buy one. There are other alternatives check with a local stable maybe you can work out an arraingement for lessons and riding time by doing chores for them this helps them and will benefit you because you will gain more knowledge. Good luck!

Answer 3

I am not sure what you mean by lest.

If you mean the smallest amount you coul dpay for a horse, well you can purchase horses at auctions for low prices, from rescues at low prices, usually around 100-500 but generally these horses need training, which will cost as well.

A broken horse can be around 500-2500, and a trained horse can be very expensive depending ont he breed.

If you mean LEASE as in to lease a horse, that can range from free to 400 depending on the horse and its training.

If you mean the generally amount a horse cost a month. If you have your OWN land to place it, hay is about 60.00-100.00 a month for a typical horse, grain is about 20.00, for a low grade grain, and water is well that depends on your area. For full care boarding you are talking 200-400.00 a month in most areas. For pasture care, 100-300 a month. Farrier is around 30-100 every 3 months depending on your horse's needs. Vet is around 200 a year if horse does not get sicka nd just needs shots.

Answer 4

you can get a horse for free sometimes, but the horse probably needs a lot of training. no matter what the horse is probably going to cost about 6,000 a year for vet, farrier, and boarding fees if you can't keep the horse at your house but if you have land for the horse you need feed, grain, and maybe a few other things depending your horse. You will also need a saddle, bridle, grooming supplies, lungeline(optional), halter, hoofpick, and many other nessesities(sp?). go to a horse barn and ask around and see what a horse needs.

Answer 5

depends on what you want around where i live thoroubreds off the track sell for $1. Probably not what you want since your a beginner. I bought my first horse for $500. He is the best and quietest horse you could ever find

Answer 6

A huge range... depends on age, health, etc.

I bought my horse for $2000. A bit pricy, but worth every penny! :)
