You can make money with horses! (Hey i'm 14 and i got a job at my barn last year) so you can do it. Yeah sometimes it might feel like you get underpaid and over worked but all in all its worth it. maybe you could ask the owner of your barn for work in the exchange of riding lessons every week in stead of every oter week. If your mom or dad or whoever you live with doesn't wantto drive you to the barn, try and get a ride with another person who works there, that';s what i do.
any way, hope this has helped~

Lights_Fade_Out answered Wednesday June 8 2005, 10:51 am: Try going to that farm more...like on your free time. I will tell you to save your money, because that will get you your horse. But in the meantime, take more time at the farm where you ride. If you become more friendly with the people who ride there, then they trust you. If they trust you, then they can trust you with their horses. Sometimes they sell their horses to people they trust for a lesser amount of money. Living in the city is hard when you want to be with horses more often. Just try giving ing yourself more time to go the the farm that you ride at.
hope this helped. =D you can ask me anything else.

well just say i am really davoted to this and i think i am ready for the next step up.... getting a horse is just like getting a glove for baseball, getting a stick for hockey, getting a helmet for football! [ helpinghandgrl's advice column | Ask helpinghandgrl A Question ]
smartgirl321 answered Friday May 27 2005, 11:12 pm: Maybe you could work out a deal wth the owners of the riding place. you could ask them if you help aroud the stables if you can ride the horses more often. [ smartgirl321's advice column | Ask smartgirl321 A Question ]
OrangeChikn answered Thursday May 26 2005, 8:13 pm: Ask if you can ride more often, and ask people at the stable if you can volenteer there. Then ask your parents.
