hope it helps luvs mckenzie xxHow do i convince my parents to buy a horse?
My advice would be not to push it. I've wanted a horse for a Long time now, and this year a horse at the farm our neighbor worked at ended up being a great horse for me, I rode her for the summer and ended up getting her. Show them that your responsible enough to realizes how much money the total cost will be. Don't forget about the vet, farrier, fencing, food, and boarding. Not to mention tack. So, give it some though, and just show them how responsible you are at your riding stable. Hope that helped =)
did you ask why not? they may feel the responsibility would be too much for you and them. they may feel you might neglect your chores or be away from home to much or that they would end up paying some of the costs, believe me I have owned horses on my own property and the work and cost was way more than I had anticipated.
they may feel your just not old enough. I your mom just started a business maybe they have costs coming up or will need your to help around the house more than you do now. maybe they will feel they will have to fight with you everytime they want you to stay home and do these extra chores and you want to go see your horse. I know it sucks, I remember begging my dad, we had the money and it was just us two, but my dad didn't feel that children need more than the basics in life anything else they can have when adults and pay for itself themselves.
RRRRR
Owning a horse is a major responsibility. So
you need to show your parents how responsible
a person your are. Do you do your chores without
being asked ? Keep your room clean ? Show your
parents you are responsible person then ask
to buy the horse.
Sometimes you can rent a stall for your horse. That's almost the same as having a farm or ranch. Just make sure you have everything planned out and submit this plan to your parents along with their favorite desert to loosen up their mood. Just let them know how important it is to you. In the end, if they tell you no, I would respect their wishes because their your parents after all, but if it's going to work that's one idea.
P.S. Make sure to offer them time to look over your plans and think about it. Any major decision deserves time to think things over. There's expenses, and care for a living animal to consider.
so you have the space.Do you have the time . Well if that were yeah read on .So you need to prove to ya mum your mum ya not gonna ditch it.When you wanna go do somthin else or when its raining will you still go and feed it.so prove to your mum your very responsble,Its good that you have saved up but like if your friends ring up and youve got to do jobs say no sorry im buzy.So then your mmum knows your commited.hope this helps.KEEP IN TOUCH ON HOW THINGS GO? tOODLEZ lol bye
I had been riding horses for four years before my parents bought me my first one. They wanted to make sure it wasn't just a phase and that I was completely dedicated to it. I started working at the barn where I was taking lessons to earn free lessons, and I exercised other boarders' horses for them. I was there every single day after school until it was dark and sometimes much longer after. I came home and kept up with my schoolwork. I really didn't do anything else. When they did buy me my own horse we boarded him at the barn where I was taking lessons. I got a discount from all the work I was doing there. I evented for about 4 years until the cost of keeping a horse, competing, and everything that went along with it(saddle, bridle, feed, shoes every 6 weeks, vet, competition fees, trainer's fee, etc) became way too much and I had to sell my horse and equipment and quit. I still ride other people's horses to exercise them when they ask me, but it's not the same.
Ask where you're taking lessons if you can help around the barn to get more familiar with caring for horses. It will show your parents that you are willing to take the extra responsibility, and to prove that it is not just a phase to them and maybe to yourself. Good luck!
are you sure your dedicated to riding and horses and you understand what it takes? (not saying you arent ready)
horses are alot of money trust me! but if your ready maybe you could start saving up do all the research of farrier, vet, feed everything you will need show them everything you have done to prove you are dedicated and maybe it wil work. it might take time though
good luck!
I know this doesn't but this sounds exactly like me my mom said last september i could get a horse in 6 months and we were going to move that summer on a farm to get a horse, but instead my mom started a bussiness, so we are just going to get horse property next summer and build a weekend house on it! I found the perfect horse and I have been leasing it for a almost 2 months and i think i am going to get him before halloween so we can dress up and go trick or treating together, i just had to point thatout
Well here is some advice. #1 show them that you realy are interested and are not going to give up. I to love horses. So I know what you're going through trust me.Show them that you will properly groom, feed, and ride the horse on a daily bases. Also show them that you have a great time taking lessons and being arround horses and maybe even wash the dishes , and clean your room before they tell you to do so.Then show responsability, and trustworthiness.Maybe then you can talk horses with your parents for example show them that you know the exspenses, and time given in to horses and even if it takes a birthday or Christmas present that you have wanted for the past few years. If this doesn't work e-mail me I still have tons of advice.By the way you can go over the enternet net and look at prices for horses, tack and even trailer to carry the horse to events and I would prefer that you look for colts insted of horses the babies are CHEAPER keep thet in mind.
You are totally crazy because you not living on a farm I know one of Parishioner have a farm but you don't have a farm. You need to clean the barn out and feed it some hay every morning, afternoon, and night.
WOW a horse! well it depends do you live on a farm? Show your parents that you are mature enough.
Well if they can't afford one or you do not have any where to keep one they are going to say no.Make sure you realise that they are a BIG responsiblity and cost alot of money.If you don't have a farm,you can rent a field/stables but that costs alot of money,as does food,saddles,and then there is all the time you will have to spend mucking out.If you are sure you can handle the responsiblity and if your parents have enough money,then try and work out a way of showing them your responsible enough to look after a horse(do chores around the house,offer to help at your riding lessons,etc).
Good luck!
Its just a crazy phase dear.
