Do you own your own horses

Lovefall · 12-02-2009, 05:09 PM

My daughter loves to go horseback riding. I was thinking of getting her a horse, but I'm sure it would be expensive. Do you like to ride? Where do you ride?

I like to ride, and would like to learn how to do it better. The only riding I've done is where they put you on a horse and take you on a trail. I have though about owning, but it would be too much work for me I think.

Horses are expensive upkeep and require a ton of work! They are great to ride, but if you are going to own one, you will probably want someone to care for it for you.

My cousin owns 2 horses and it's a ton of work. I would never think about owning one. I'd rather just go ride them. I bet it's expensive too!

I grew up thinking I'd one day own horses. Then I had a family and realized how difficult it would be to take care of horses on top of everything else I have going on. In my dreams I'd own one!

I grew up around people that owned horses but I never had the chance, maybe one day. I think in about 5-10 years I will be ready but for now other things have to come first.

I had my horse up until she was thirty-plus. But yes could get expensive.SHE WAS WORTH EVERY PENNY.
