horses

Well I thought younger your spelling and grammar needs alot of work. If you want people to take you seriously and show you more respect you need to work on that. I know a lot of kids today write like they are doing shorthand as a court reporter. But in the long run it will hurt them greatly.

I own and breed horses. I have loved horses since the day I was born, so much I use to ride our great danes since we had no horses. I was able to work with horse for five years ages 18-22. Then for 13 years nothing, as I was a brand new Christian, and God had closed all the doors. I didn't own my first horse till I was 34, that is when he had opened the doors up again without me even looking to get back into it.

Anyway I do agree it is a lot of work and above all else you should have a lot of knowledge. not just head knowledge but HANDS on knowledge !

I do not agree that it is as involved as Helen said it is. Most people including myself do not go out every day to groom and clean feet. My horses all have automatic water. And feeding for 8 horses twice a day takes maybe 15 minutes total. I use a quad and drive around, and all the feeder tubs are right by the fences.
I do my own shots and worming, which I order by catalog which keeps prices down. Although you will not be able to give your own shots. Worming but not shots. I rarely ever need a vet since I do preventive maintence and have excellent FENCING ! I have my horses feet trimmed every 2 to 3 months, as that is when they need it up here. We only have one riding horse, the others are broodmares, babies or yearlings. $25.00 for trimming. And I'm in Ca. And yes tack can be expensive.

Unless you have lots of family support ( I personally wouldn't depend so much on neighbors unless you do have a great neighbor and can do some bargining )I would seriously look at trying to find ways outside of owning one, like cleaning stalls, or finding friends with horses. Just so you can get that experence. You and your horse in the future will be better for it.

Just My Humble Opinion

i have been kind of working for someone, he is the one with the horse. No pay but i do not mind! his barn is filled with cats, infact that is where we got our kitten!She was the runt, and there was no way she would have made it. Now she is real healthy, but she still needs to put alittle meat on those bones, but she is doing much better!
