Leasing A Horse FAQ
Leasing is a great way to get extra riding time in with out the commitment or cost of purchasing a horse.
MISSION STATEMENT
My mission for this leasing program is to do numerous things such as teach kindness to all of Gods creatures, to provide a safe and healthy environment dedicated to teaching animal stewardship and compassion with in the barn environment that extends kindness to all students and animals thereby creating deep equestrian friendships and amazing lasting memories.
Currently, I am offering a lease options for our gelding Blue and LG. Both are safe, sane and sound. Blue is very sweet, kind and gentle for the absolute beginner rider. HIs favorite thing to do is cuddle and wrap his whole neck around his kid. Blue has been quite the asset to Running Horse Ridge and all of our students. He has taught numerous children balance, kindness, horsemanship, quiet hands, heels down and so much more!
Blue has been a lesson horse for well over 5 years now and I think he would benefit from having one or two children to love rather than the 8 he currently has. Blue prefers walk/trot only.
I am now offering LG as a step up horse from Blue. He is 16 years old this year, but he is not necessarily slowed down any. He is a very thoughtful horse, but does require balance and thoughtfulness with quiet hands so he is for my more advanced students.
So, how do horse leases work?
* All leases are 6 or 12 month contracts.
* All leases are onsite only.
* Leases require a 30 day notice to cancel.
* Running Horse Ridge will continue paying vet and farrier.
* If the horse is lame or out of commission, student (leaser) can learn about unmounted care dealing with the reality of horses...which is that horses have fragile bodies and that care and maintenance come along with horse ownership.
* If the horse has to be off for longer than 10 days, I will either credit your lesson account with the balance due for lessons or apply the monies due to the next lease agreement.
* Students will still need to take at least 1 weekly lesson.
* I will teach parents how to help tack up Blue and LG and make sure every one is safe.
* At the beginning of your lease, I will make myself available during the times your child is riding until the parent feels comfortable on their own.
* Parents need to be onsite and no drop offs unless parent has had cleared it with me and I am available to be with your child.
* This program will need to have a regular weekly schedule of your rides so I know when you will be here and can assist you and your child.
Lease Options Available:
2- riding days per week + 1 lesson = 3 rides per week = $350/mo includes 4 lessons per month.
3- riding days per week + 2 lessons= 5 rides per week = $500/mo Includes 8 lessons per month.
