[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up riding horses. Luckily my parents had land and barn facilities, so we didn't have to pay for board. But food, vet, farrier, equipment, trailer, shows, buying the animals themselves - it really added up. I wasn't anywhere near professional or Olympic level, but my parents supported me because I loved it.[/quote] My parents were not horse people, and we were middle class with limited funds for horse pursuits. But they did support me by paying for an on-site lease at the barn where I was a working student and schlepping me back and forth to the barn. I didn't own my first horse until I was an adult and paid for it myself. I've ridden so many different horses as a result-- lesson horses, leased horses, catching rides... I was able to become a pretty good rider through all the experiences I had on other people's horses over the years![/quote]
