this 'hobby' continues to creep up in expense.

first, it was the saddle, $5k for a demo model.

next, we're leasing a horse to the tune of $1500 mo. + a few other fees related to housing the damn thing.

now, she's telling me how euro:usd makes buying a horse from europe a 'good deal'. there is no way buying a live animal from across the atlantic will be less than $50k...

is there any way to MAKE money off a horse? like, should i buy some kind of racehorse thing and hope it wins trophy or something?

BLM will pay you 1k if you adopt a mustang and care for it for a year, just they're feral. What kind of horse? It's cheaper to show sport horses in Europe because there's so much less travel for shows but depending on what you're looking for should find something good locally. Loads of recreational riders happily pay ridiculous premium for some service when they really don't have to.

i think she just needs a horse to consistently ride on because supposedly that's needed to get better. no idea if this is flame.

i feel like $$$ people who use this stable are putting in her head that 100k for a horse is nbd, but that's probably for something with documented paperwork, bred for competition, etc.

i just need to know if normal ttt horses that can trot around can be had for $5-10k or something

the blm thing is interesting, but i assume you have to sink a bunch of money to get it trained and run the risk that it says fuck that and stays feral

The BLM thing is to show range of cost-- they are cheaper than free. You can get a tip one or mustang magic one that's trained a bit but don't do it unless you have some experience and time.

If you're looking for a special sport horse, dressage training etc you could pay 100k+. If you want a nag for pony ride people will give away old horses. BLM horses are feral but they will pay you to take one. A basic pony or horse for trail rides and basic riding could be a few thousand to maybe 20k. Obvs the board, vet, farrier etc (and your matching le mieux outfits!) add up.

Riding the same horse a few times a week and getting some instruction is good to progress. It can take 18 months for grand prix type riders to really optimally adjust to horse. However it's also great to be able to ride different horses and experience different temperaments. Are you trying to train to dressage level? Ride same horse that's suitable. Are you just trotting around and doing a few jumps and going for trail rides? Doesn't matter too much.

i'm trying to minimize how much this shit costs. the stable has a few horses to ride, but she's going on 2+ years of training there and they told her she should get her own horse.

she just trots around, does a few small jumps, and maybe 1x a year goes to a 'horse show' that costs $$$ but gives out ribbons for doing stuff.

Ahh. Ok you really don't need a 100k elite sport pony, unless you really want to go there. Fit is important -- I can't stand the hunter plodders but some people love them. A horse that's too much could be dangerous, but you want some room to grow. An experienced slightly older horse (16 or so) could be good to learn the ropes, but then you're in "free 22 yr old horse to good home" boat. There's a price curve with them cheap untrained and then most expensive probably 8-12, then cheaper approaching retirement.

It seems like a "grade" qh (or similar breed/size) with decent confirmation, good temperament, some training would be a good fit, and should cost maybe 10-25k. Good vet check can eliminate some risk, but can't make sure the horse is a good fit for you.

Clydesdales are a heavy draft breed, not great for riding especially jumping. Really depends on breeding, individual horse, and training. Something like Appaloosa, paint, quarter horse, icelandic can be chill and nice but some are more high strung, sporty, and temperamental. Some Shetland ponies are wonderful, some are naughty. Some thoroughbreds race, some are chill lesson horses.
