  1. Leasing, Loaning, Buying, Rescuing
    Hi everybody! Looking for some wisdom on a decision. After laying my heart horse to rest almost 15 months ago, I feel that I'm in a good enough place to start looking for my next equine partner. Here are my thoughts: I had my sweet mare for 7 years (got her at 19) and honestly, as I'm sure you...
  2. Horse Talk
    I am thinking about starting to buy and sell ponies. I plan on training them to drive and just be good citizens and then selling them. I only want to do one at a time and I can keep it for as long as needed and won’t ever send to auction or to anyone that seems to be sketchy. But what do y’all...
  3. Thoroughbreds and TB Racing
    I’ve been looking for a horse for almost a year and I’ve always said I’d never buy a TB. But I saw this horse on fb that was an OTTB but had a brilliant jump on him (I’m hoping to show jump one day). He seemed perfect apart from the fact he was way over my budget. I then saw him advertised quite...
  4. Leasing, Loaning, Buying, Rescuing
    Hello! so I’m not in the market for a horse right now, but I’m just wondering a couple things; how hard is it to find a horse that’s just calm but also listens to commands like trot, canter, etc? Nothing fancy just a solid (teenager) western pleasure horse. I work with lesson horses and they...
  5. Trailer and Horsebox queries
    I've found a great used Warmblood Size trailer and want to buy. I just have my smaller QH but may be getting a second horse, good chance a larger horse. Not to mention I have friends with bigger horses who may need to be moved. My sweet boy is 14.3 at 4 years, may finish out at 15 or 15.1 max I...
  6. Riding and Barn Wear
    Are there certain shops online or are in a lot of places that sell good saddles? Ones that aren't scams.
  7. Horse Talk
    HELP! I recently came across the perfect horse that I really want to buy. I am getting a really good deal on her, but the buyers need her gone very soon. I just got a job, but I need a way to help convince my parents to get her. I would pay half of her board after the second month, but I need...

  9. Horses for Sale, Lease, Loan & Wanted
    So, I contacted this barn about one of their horses. I saw the ad and immediately fell in love with the look of her. She is $800 and is trained for trail riding and jumping, which both of these is what I need. On the ad, she said she was good for a beginner. She was perfect, but then, the owner...
  10. Horse Feeds, Feeding and Nutrition
    I looked at a 6 yr old OTTB that had a minor tendon tear in her left front. It healed, has been ultrasounded, and she is cleared for everything but high eventing. I want her for a barrel horse. Would you guys risk buying her?
  11. Horse Talk
    Hi everyone!! I can't decide so I want some other horse people's opinions to help me decide! Should I buy a second horse?? The biggest thing is can I afford a second horse? Well after crunching the numbers over and over and OVER again haha I have come to the conclusion I definitely can...
  12. Horse Talk
    The closest horse supplies/tack store is quite a while away from where I am, and I'm pretty angry about it because they need to make one up here, there's already 3 next to each other down there and yet they don't make one up north for us. So anyway, I was wondering if you buy supplies online...
  13. Horses for Sale, Lease, Loan & Wanted
    Curious to see how much you might pay for a horse with a VERY old sesamoid fracture in his LH (with minor suspensory damage). Some more info -11yo OTTB -Sound on flat, just limited to non jumping activities -Does light trails -Has been worked on this fracture for a very long time, and was...
  14. Horse Boarding/Livery/Agistment Queries
    Hello, I'm new to this forum and joined because I've come into an interesting situation. I've been riding, training and learning from horses for over ten years. As with many on this site, I suspect, horses molded who I am and fulfill my life in a unique way. The stable I was educated at is...
  15. Draft Horses
    I just have a few questions for Clydesdale owners! In a couple of years I'm going to be looking for another horse (due to my mare being up there in years). I've always had an affinity for Clydesdales and draft horses. I was thinking in general about different breeds their temperaments (I need...
