I could not imagine paying someone to haul my horse though. I do NOT trust anyone with my boy

Hummer ive never heard of that happening like even the vets have their own trailers if they really need to bring your horse somewhere

12:09:06 Bird

And it is always because the vet refuses to come out and help and instead says they have to bring their horse in. =/

12:08:33 Bird

I am just paranoid because we get occasional posts in my local horse group of someone desperately asking for help because their horse needs to go to the vet and they have no way to get there.

Also theres tons of places like that, literally 95% of horse owners here dont have trailers and just like get a hauler

Lucky Ranch

12:08:23 luhckeigh

a lot of boarding places will haul for you
also all the vets i have come out to me, i bet you can find one like that

Savannah Stables

12:08:08 Dusty

Hummer does your vet not come out to the farm??

Savannah Stables

whats wrong with suvs lucky

12:07:40 Bird

If I get a horse without a truck I would have to board it somewhere that can take it to the vet if something goes wrong. So it is doable...

I feel like the thing holding me back from ever getting my own horse is affording a truck. 😭

fair enough, but I'd argue the truck and trailer is more versatile than a glorified van lol.
it would be sooo nice to have one though *-*

Hi! After a very stressful show seson this summer I qualifed for Colonial Classics Championships finals! I know I should be thrilled for this opportunity to show against all of the other people who quailfied. But the big thing right now is money, its going to cost at least $500 if not more. I need to enter in by the 19th and it starts September 1st. I have no clue what to do.

congrats on getting in! happy for ya

A big part of the costs for me to show is always buying riding gear and feed, bits and bobs for everything you need. I just restrict myself as much as i possibly can and do it all on a tight budget.

But if its the entry fee or something like transport thats gonna cost you that amount of money, im afraid there isnt a great deal you can do :(

Its mostly the fees and how much stabling is going to cost. I made a deal with my parents that I would pay for all my shows because we dont have around $200 to spend every show. I am thinking if i can work more then I can pay for it but its so soon so i dont know if I will have time.

You could go through all of your tack and figure out what you don't need anymore and sell it, it might not bring in a lot of money but it could help.

Can you share a horse and cut stabling fees in half that way?

Would your parents be willing to make an exception and help you out for this show? Could you work out a deal to pay them back over time? Because you're right, you don't have a lot of time to fundraise.
