@Rapcoon, proper fitting saddles are important, but you don't have to buy a $3,500 custom one. My trainer and the saddle fitter made it sound like if I truly cared about my horse I would spend that much money.
I mean, I owned a horse for less than a year and used up ALL my savings. Granted, I probably provided him extra things he didn't need, but was told he did such as a custom fitted saddle, chiropractor, and fancy tack.
boulder the only way we can afford 2 horses + 7 ponies and a menagerie of other creatures is that my mother trims their feet herself(and has done corrective trimming for 3 of them) and uses some natural remedies for minor issues.
luna yeah, not only are we moving to a ranch with a hay field, but we're also taking over a friend's business so he can retire. He grows organic forage and usually yields 600-ish bales a year. And he sells 'em for $15 a bale.
I'd love to have my own horse in RL but not in this economy. I'm able to afford the basics and the medication that my husband needs to live and not much else
boulder as someone whose ponies are getting up there in age(2 being 25+) it's really sad to see. And yes, people tend to hyperfocus on 'This sad puppy who needs X amount to save his life!' than 'these x amount of puppies who only need food and a family to save many lives'.
Hummer, I'm supposed to be getting my first horse from a friend who's gifting him to me. But at this rate, I dont think I'll ever be able to afford to give him everything he needs and then some.
