This horse buying guide came to life as a result of numerous discussions on the subject of purchasing a horse, including breed, buying vs. leasing, training a sport horses, developing the rider, choosing a professional training track, and many related topics.
What we will be talking about here is not the typical blood line, pricing, and vet check material you can find online or in equestrian magazines. We are cutting deep into the subject from 4 unusual angles, each of which are a foundation of the horse purchasing decision.
- Buyer qualification
- Markets
- Timing and finances
- Family relations
- Purchasing process
- What to do next
This is a really fascinating read on prerequisites of a horse purchase based on a lot of experience in this area and clarifies a lot.
Material like this is of great value to both the first-time buyer and experienced horse owner.”
- David Schmutz, USEF S Judge and dressage competitor
Conversations with my students Sophia McKee
and Evgenia Stenberg, and a professional sport horse seller Debra Mead made a base for this book.
The book is available on Amazon.com as paperback and on Kindle
