Hinweis der Redaktion
Riding instructor – knows skill level of rider, will try to match for future success Trainer – may “over buy” horse Youth leader – good source for horses who’s owners have out grown them Newspaper – ask a lot of questions on the phone, send pictures, videos, show record Horse trader – makes money with fast turnover, usually has only sketchy history of horse, guaranteed to sell for more than bought or traded for horse. Horse sales – weekly auctions are usually unloading ground for attitude of soundness problems
A knowledgeable horse person can help you steer clear of future problem horses. It is worth paying a fee to have this resource.
Horses attitude can change with changes in weight. A thin docile horse may turn into a spirited mount with 200#s.
& up is determined by safety, level of training, show record, health, etc…. Lower range prices are dictated by slaughter market……50 cents ~ pound
