I found a great deal on a horse that I really want to lease for july/august. It only $100 a month ($200 total) and my dad said i have to come up with half the cost im order to lease it. I can work off $40 by cleaning stalls. I have $12 in wallet (I recently spent all my money buying a saddle) but I am $48 short. Me and my friend have put up flyers for dog walking but have yet to get a response. How can I come up with $48, and fast!?

leasing a horse is like renting a horse. the owners of the horse will tell you how long the horse is on lease for so it might be anything from 3 months to 1 year depending on what the owners want. most horses that are leased out is because people are moving on to a bigger or more advanced horse. some horses may know how to barrel race but maybe you could just get a been there done that horse and instead of just saying you want to do barrel racing straight up if you got an alrounder you could go to local shows and do sporting which does include barrel racing and other fun sporting games with out doing it at such a competitive level and you may even pick up some nice ribbons. competitive barrel racing on a high level is for extremely experienced riders that have been doing all there life. but if you do it at a local ag show or something it is more suitable for beginners. the amount it costs to lease a horse vairies some people will give the horse to you on a free lease or some times the lease is about anything from free to 200 a month. your trainer may have some horses you can ride. if you have a local barn and you start lessons they normally have horses you can lease. if you get a lease horse from your barn you might be able to negotiate the lease buy doing extra jobs around the barn in return for a lower lease. also getting a lease horse is much better because if you decide that having the horse is not right then you can give it back. i hope this all helped and you read it all

Baby sitting for the neighbors? Or perhaps offering to do a little cleaning for them, like washing their cars or house windows. Do a car wash.

How old are you? You could do babysitting, or mothers helper. Also, you could look on local bulletin boards for people looking for you to do odd jobs like moving their lawn or something.
