Thread: What is the lowest price you should spend on a horse?

i really want to get a cheap welsh ponie ( doesnt have to be broke to ride ) how much should i spend to get one?

for a few hundred dollars you could get a really old one

Go rescue one for free

Instead of spending money on a "ponie," invest in some spelling lessons.

£1000 for a good one.... one that's too young to ride.


It's not about the price you pay, it's about the price they cost to keep. You are looking at £45 a week at the minimum.

Well, technically to buy a horse it could be as low as $0. It could get as high as 1,000,000. It varies BIG time.

Depends on the horse type, some go from free to millions. Some may have better bloodlines then others, witch makes them more expensive.

Well it really all depends because someone could be selling the horse for like $100 because they can't afford to keep it another day or someone could be selling a horse for like a $100 because the horse is in really bad condition and has diseases or other illnesses.

But I guess if you wanted to be safe I would spend at least $600

Overall I would definitely go and check out the horse before buying.

You don't get into the horse business to save money. That's not how things work.

The proverb goes: If you want to make a small fortune in horses, start out with a large fortune.

I got my horse for free. Free horses can be amazing. It isn't the price tag that makes the entire difference.
