| I paid $450 at my trainer's barn after they built a new indoor - I since bought a new horse and moved him to my house. Her board has gone up to $545 a month. But everything is included. Honestly, some places are worth the money, to some respect. My trainer is EXCELLENT with horses - She turned my old mare from a school horse who was kicked out of the shows to an absolute dressage queen. I would trust her with any horse. But, she doesn't take crap some anyone, or anything ;) Oh, and I reside in MA |

Horses: 0 | I dont pay any board at the moment, but that is because I ride with the owners 11 year old daughter top give her a riding partner. And I ride her horses which gives them exercise. I also work with one horse in particular that has manner issues, so I just allow the daughter to work with her with my supervision. I get my own stall as I need it, which is a birthing stall (dont know the dimensions) Kirby has his own pasture, with his own run-in, and in the winter has heated water. He gets fed twice a day. Also another boarder is partners with a vet so we get any help from them whenever a horse isnt feeling well. All I pay for is his hay and his feed. |

| The real price for full board at my place is $450 a month, but I will be working 6 hours a week so I'll only pay $100. I get full use of the tack room, indoor/outdoor arena, small cross country course, trails, 10x10 stalls, heated wash stall, grain twice a day in the winter plus hay twice a day and daily turnout |

| I pay $175/month for my arab mare who has a 12x24 stall w/a 24x24 run AND she has a private 36x48 paddock. That includes feed 3x daily and her wet mash. Then I also board my mini there for $50/month... that also includes feed...... I NEVER understood why some facilities charge SO much! I know they charge for the "work" they do.... but its not work to me... My last boarding facility I was boarding at charged me $250/month and they NEVER FED MY MARE! they took my money and let her starve! now I don't even pay that much and I have 2 horses! Sorry for the rant.... |

| Some boarding places just don't need to have horses period. everyone has heard the horror stories, I'm lucky its never happened to me.
I'm glad you're at a better place now. I've found there is no place like home to have your horses. it's absolutely wonderful and I'm grateful I have the place for them. |
