Dude
Don’t have a tension because of ur project Rockstar, U rock.
I’d like answers from people who actually own horses, or have experience in the field. I need good informational websites, estimates of costs, and anything else you care to provide. Thanks!
I owned an Arabian gelding for 26 years. I always boarded him, never had him in my own yard. I prefer boarding because it let’s me be free to travel and besides, if you keep a horse at your own house you really need at least TWO horses — they are herd animals and get very lonely without other horses around.
I live in New England, which is an expensive part of the USA. Full board costs between $350 – $600 per month, depending on the facility and services. Full board usually means that they provide food, stall cleaning and turn out. Some places also provide worming and blanket service — other places charge you more for that. You are responsible to get a farrier (for shoes) and vet for your own horse, although often a vet or farrier will come and see many horses at the same time. You are also responsible for providing any supplements you want your horse to have and for grooming and exercising your horse. SOME stables will exercise and groom your horse for you but those would be MUCH more expensive.
Shoes are VERY expensive — average about $110 every 6 weeks or so. If you live in a place where the horse doesn’t need shoes, you might be able to get by with just having the hooves trimmed every 6 weeks, for about $50. But where I live it’s so rocky that you NEED shoes — and sometimes pads — if you really want to ride.
You can find all sorts of other types of boarding. Some places charge you much less, but you are responsible for providing feed and hay. Some places charge less but your horse lives outside. Some places charge a LOT less, but all they provide is the stall — you are responsible for getting there twice a day to feed your horse, letting him in or out and cleaning the stall. Personally, I would avoid any place where the owners were responsible for the actual FEEDING. Horses need a routine and owners won’t get there at the same time each day. Plus, some owners will come at 5 PM and other won’t come until 8 PM — and it upsets horses to see others being fed, even if they’ve ALREADY eaten. And worst of all, some owners might not come everyday — what do you do then? Let the horse go hungry? Or feed him yourself?
Turnout is another factor you need to consider. I think it’s VERY cruel to keep a horse inside all the time. They NEED to go out for exercise, companionship and foraging. Land is so expensive these days that it’s rare to find actual PASTURE, but at least the horse should be in a large paddock where he can at least PRETEND to be foraging for grass. And of course he will need plenty of hay.
What kind of riding do you want to do? If you want to show, then you probably need a place with an indoor arena, unless you live where the weather is almost always nice. If you just want to ride on trails — then you’ll need to find a barn with acess to trails. Remember, the better the facility, the more you will pay.
I really don’t know of any good web sites, but I’m sure you can find some. Good luck — and I hope you find the horse of your dreams!
I have purchased a Horse facts Guide Amazon’;return true;” onmouseout=”self.status=””>horse (in Australia) and found out that he was bred by Roseneath Stud at Cobbity. I found a phone number and fax number for them. The phone number just rings out and the fax number is disconnected. Can anyone help as to where I might find information about horses bred by this organisation.
any websites that have information on horses like grooming ect……..?
and informative videos (i know youtube has vids like that but would like a actual horse site)
what breed is best for temperment and jumping??
SORRY ABOUT ALL THE QUESTIONS LATELY
I love Sylvia Scott’s natural horsemanship web site. There are no videos but a huge section on horse training problems. It covers everything and has been a huge help to me. Also don’t feel bad about asking questions. Obviously its fun answering them or we wouldn’t do it. So ask away.
I have a test in the morning i need help i need to knoe alot about horses like…can horses learn to do simple tricks or if horses r scared wuts their furst instinct play dead,fight,bite,flee.PLEASE HELP!!!!
Their first reaction when scared depends on their options. If you are on top of them, it is to buck and get you off so they can run away more easily. If the threat is small and near their mouth, they’ll bite it. They’ll bite if cornered or pinned on the ground as well if kicking isn’t an option.
More on horses:
If you have an upcoming test on horses make sure to study prior to the night before the test. If you’re lazy, unprepared, or put it off for some other reason, use Google to get the information you need as it will be much more efficient then a question/answer blog website such as Yahoo Answers.
Ground and weather conditions are important factors in Horse facts Guide Amazon’;return true;” onmouseout=”self.status=””>horse race betting. It may be very difficult to place a bet on any horse, as the race greatly depends on these factors.
Ground Conditions:
Ground conditions depend on rain, because when it rains, the racetrack becomes wet, many potholes happen on the ground, and racetrack becomes messy. The ground becomes slippery and wet due to mud and imposes more difficulties for horses to run and race.
You may gather information on the previous horse race betting that were influenced by the ground and weather conditions. This will give you an idea about how to bet prudently in such situations. You may gain knowledge as to which bet will benefit more i.e. whether it’s wise to back or lay on a horse.Â
Watch the races being held in spite of such conditions. Find out which horses are comfortable on wet ground and which horses are comfortable on dry ground. Determine the best betting options and accordingly place your bets.Â
Weather conditions:
Not all weather conditions are suitable for horses to perform well. However, some horses get proper training to perform in such conditions, but they find it difficult to perform in all weather conditions.Â
Bettors need to be very careful before placing a bet. Have a look at all the horses and see how they perform. You need to be watchful of the conditions in which these horses were comfortable to perform.
For instance, if a horse is comfortable in rainy conditions, there is no problem in placing a bet on that particular horse. However if you find that a horse is not comfortable in rainy conditions, it is good to avoid backing on that horse.Â
There are chances that the horses may get weak and exhausted as not all weather conditions suit all horses. Therefore, it is important to see that the horse you select to place a bet is physically fit and is comfortable in all weather conditions. Also, make sure that horse is not suffering from dehydration.Â
There are various factors in placing a bet. You need to consider all these factors to place a bet on horse racing, as your money is involved in betting. As such ground and weather conditions are the most important factors in this regard.

They had their winter coats, we spent the day out in the fields with them grooming, etc.
