Horses!

How often does everyone shop for horses?

I'm looking at horses for sale every day. I like to keep an eye on the market, see where the prices are.

It looks like prices are holding, but to me, I see some are dropping and there is a lot more "motivated seller" or "negotiable" being added to the price tag.

I focus on dressage horses, Gypsy Vanners, Friesians and Andalusians in my search.

Not really ever tbh, I can't get any more and definitely won't be selling mine and looking gives me horse fever lol

Once in awhile I’ll look around but I’m not ready to have my own horse right now. So i mostly just do it soI can get an idea on the prices. And it’s kinda fun!

Personally, very rarely. I keep an eye on BLM Mustangs, but I'm happy with Max and the other three and they're a handful! Tack though is another story. I look for tack frequently.

Has anyone on here ever actually bought a wild mustang and trained it? Just curious.

In other news, we have progress! So, in an effort to reverse the damage from the flooding training, I've introduced treats. Treats, pets, and affirmation have made a big difference the past few days. Already was doing affirmations and petting, but treats made a huge difference in willingness to work. Taking things very, very slow. Got on last night after introducing treats into groundwork a few days before, and getting on and just walking around a few days before. He seems to have gotten the message that I want him to want to be with me, and once that happened, he was all in. Seriously, it was amazing. I had to use like no pressure for him to move, and found out he mostly leg reins. I was stunned at the difference, and will continue onwards this way.

Yes, actually. My mom and I have one currently that we work together to train. He's her horse, but we're a team and do everything together.

That’s so cool! How old is he and how long have you had him? How is it training him? Sorry for all the questions!
