Publisher's summary

Has the time come for you to add a horse to your life?

Are you getting ready for the “next level” in competition, and need a horse to campaign?

Are you starting to get serious about equine sports and want your own pony to practice with every day?

Has the time come for you to fill all of the horse-crazy dreams from your youth?

Is your child showing interest in horses in a very big and confusing way?

Shopping for a horse is unlike shopping for anything else. Not only are horses very big, but they can be very expensive, too. They have very specific needs and personalities that match their large size. Such a huge investment of time and money needs to be taken very seriously.

In Finding Your First Horse: How to Buy a Horse Without Losing Your Mind (or Money), author Meredith Hill helps first-time horse buyers learn:

  • How to identify your dream horse
  • What qualities to look for in a prospective equine companion
  • The most important factors in choosing a horse for your lifestyle
  • What makes a horse valuable

Whether you’re getting ready to hit the A-circuit show ring, or you’re looking for a kind-hearted “lawn ornament” to fulfill your dreams, you will understand what makes a good match between a horse and a human.

If you’re ready to add a horse or pony to your life, then scroll up and click “add to cart” now!

Horse Purpose

As an aspiring horse owner I am embarrassed to say I never once thought about what else my horse would do for me. I only thought about having it to ride. Thanks to this book I have thought about other things my horse can do for me.

informative

There was a lot of information given very quickly. I usually like information to be more drawn out so I can better understand what is being said. However, this felt like more of a starter book than an answer allllll of your questions book.

Love This Narator

The amazing narrator delivers the message perfectly and clearly. I never got bored or had to turn it down due to microphone issues.

Quick Listen

Nothing is better than a book packed full of information that I can listen to in under an hour. Although I did have to listen a few times because there was a lot in here and I didn’t want to miss anything.
