@@themrmatthewalannice assumption 🙄. Just bc you have a horse does NOT mean you’re rich. The money that goes out for the horse and its care depends on MANY factors. There are plenty of inexpensive horses to be had that are cheap bc 1) they still need a lot of training, 2) they aren’t super “fancy” show horses, 3) they are older and thus won’t be able to maintain a career for a rider with high goals, 4) they have “quirks” with their behavior your average rider doesn’t want to deal with, 5) they have bad conformation/physical conditions which limit the level they can compete at and most likely require maintenance (such as joint infections in affected joints every 6 months to a year, and other medications and have special requirements re shoeing and turn out to keep them from breaking down, 5) they are just not very attractive or have enough talent to be able to put a huge price tag on them. Lots of other reasons. Sometimes people have to sell a horse quickly bc their life circumstances change, so they will take less money to get the horse gone. As far as expense of maintenance, it depends where you keep your horse. If it’s on your own property and you’re doing all of the stall cleaning, feeding, watering, turn out, blanketing, and other barn chores yourself, and feeding cheaper (lower quality) feed/hay and using other inexpensive versions of horse necessities such as shavings for their stalls, it’s MUCH cheaper than keeping the horse at a fancy full-service boarding stable (or livery is what I believe the British call it), where you pay for other people to take care of your horse. Stalls are cleaned several times a day, high quality grain and hay are fed several times a day and in accordance with your horse’s individual nutritional needs, waterers are kept clean and full, your horse is always dressed appropriately for the weather whether it’s wearing a waterproof turnout blanket in the field (and the horses get put out in the fields every day and brought back in for you) or a regular blanket in the barn. Your horse will be scheduled for routine procedures such as getting shod by the farrier and vaccinated regularly by the vet. Basically, if you are able to afford it, your horse’s every need will be taken care of for you. Naturally there are also different standards of boarding stables. Board varies in price based on the location and quality of the facility and the care provided (some barn have multiple boarding options, such as you pay for the dry stall but you have to provide feed, hay, shavings, and do the work yourself. Some places have pasture board, where your horse doesn’t have a stall. It lives in a pasture HOPEFULLY with some type of shelter and may or may not get supplemental feed/hay or get blanketed when needed. Basically there are lots of ways you can have a horse more inexpensivly (I forgot to mention that some places allow you to work off (doing stable chores or other barn-related duties) part of your horse’s boarding fee. There are MANY options, so just having a horse doesn’t mean you are “rich”. Having a $1,200 senior horse with poor training and a terrible, often dangerous, disposition (my first horse) kept at the cheapest boarding facility available where I had to do a lot of the horse’s care myself, and without being allowed to take many lessons or attempt to compete the nutbag/often broken horse at shows made the whole thing relatively affordable for the NOT rich people. Yes, some people can afford fancy sport horses that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, and can afford to keep them in the swankiest full-service boarding stables with every need attended to and every amenity for horse and rider available, such as gated entrances, barns with auto waterers and fly spray systems, closed motor fans in large matted stalls, special wash racks and grooming/tack up areas with mats, fans and infrared heaters, multiple riding arenas with lights/sprinkler systems/expensive footing/full courses of jumps, viewing stands, climate controlled tack rooms and lounges and restrooms (with showers), laundry facilities, fire detection systems (you have to use heat based sensors in a barn bc the other kind get tripped by the smoke which comes off horses hooves during hot shoeing or don’t work bc they get clogged with dust), surveillance cameras everywhere so you can always see what your horse is doing, lots of laborers including those who live on property and check the horses multiple times overnight (on top of the daily care), etc. I know that was a LONG answer, but point is you CAN have a horse on a budget. But you DO get what you pay for. So there is that. But plenty if horse owners just keep a horse to ride for pleasure, and are fine with it living in a field with only the most basic care. There are SO many levels of expense when it comes to buying and maintaining horses. So no, you don’t HAVE to be rich. Also, often times you may START out being “rich” and then go overboard with spending for a horse and eventually end up very NOT rich! 😂
@@themrmatthewalan bruh the horses eat the money. Like they might as well actually be eating a pile of cash instead of hay. If you had money before horses, chances are you sure don’t now
🇦🇺You have to try QUICK SCREEN spray on 50+ sunblock, gos over make-up and sprays on so you don't have to worry about using dirty paddock hands to rub your face .
I enjoy your videos, the green grass blue skies lol. Here in Michigan USA it’s winter gray skies, cold rain/snow and lots of mud lol. We are having unusual weather warm temperatures but the weatherman said snow is coming, I hope not lol. 🥶🇺🇸
@@Swiftie_animals_1989 I’m in southern Michigan we have less than half inch of snow. We had more wet slit then bigger flakes, I’ll have to shovel driveway and sidewalks tomorrow. 😣😆
I love whatching your videos it helps me a lot to cope with life lol btw I just got a job at a horse riding place and they give me a horse to look after when I’m there her name is Polly!!
Could you talk more about the collagen? I cant see on their website what source they have for the collagen, at that low price it can't be human collagen?
@@amber_matthews THE EDIT IS DONE!!! I have to wait for my friend to post it since my parents wont let me post anything. She will tag you and her channel name is Fresno sso! Hope you and Luke love it!
Lovely lady, lovely animals, lovely fiance, lovely life. Sincerely happy for you. (One thing, remember when it wasn't an accepted thing that we lived with our boyfriend.... now fiance.... before we got married and put it on the internet without even thinking about it? At my age I don't need a good UTube example at my age. Wonder if there are others here that might.)
Collagen to protect your joints? I have hipissues and befor i told my orthopedic surgon that i have the pain since childhood (like 5) he tought my hipissues are from riding what i startet pretty late in life But yeah now he and i know the actuel reason but my question is cann that help preventing more demage
Quick question, how come you rode whinnie before you gave him his breakfast? Most horses I know wouldn't tolerate that and insist on their food before doing anything related to being ridden
My horses have 24/7 hay and are hard fed after work, sometimes they are fed before but I train my horses to never anticipate or expect food, for reasons like you said it’s actually a very important safety measure for me that when they get their feed doesn’t affect their behaviour
I don’t eat breakfast as I have pretty bad tummy issues so I like to do intermittent fasting to give my digestive system a break as I eat till very late at night ❤️
I was going to ask this question as well... I also have tummy issues! But if I don't eat breakfast, I will literally pass out after eating lunch. I think I need to either eat dinner earlier, or eat later and skip breakfast like you do.
That’s a weird morning routine… Normally you feed the horses first and then yourself. And then you go ride after you eat, if you don’t have work that day.
How does when I eat make my morning routine ‘weird’? My horses eat once a day ideally after they work unless I don’t have time, in which case I stagger their feeds throughout the day so they never anticipate feed at a certain time, therefore never stressing in the paddocks and upsetting their guts or not eating their 24/7 provided hay (or running around destroying their paddocks)z
