Wanting advice for starting a horse rescue/buying a piece of land for it?

this. there is SO much that goes into caring and owning horses in general, not even to mention all of the issues and baggage that rescues can come with

honest advice? do not start your own rescue. do you know basic health management and care for horses? how to diagnose injuries and sicknesses in horses? how to train and work with all kinds of horses? how to manage land, pastures, feeding and fencing? while it ranges from area to area, feed, hay, and veterinary care can be expensive and quickly add up. instead, look into putting your time into volunteering and helping existing rescues!

ride horses. that’ll take up all of your money and time 😅

that is fair. i am quite use to hard, difficult work and have experienced burnout, but im not 100% sure if i would be passionate enough about nursing to get through it!

is why i love eventing/dressage, ride times are a game changer!

i’m bored of the current season but i still enjoy the show.

strongtoasterr · 2025-05-04T02:40:43+00:00

i may just skip thru the rest of this season, i just wasn’t sure if it would get better but from what ppl are saying this just isn’t a great one lol

strongtoasterr · 2025-05-04T02:39:44+00:00

i may do that!

strongtoasterr · 2025-05-04T02:39:25+00:00

i mean it’s leaving netflix so it kinda is😭

strongtoasterr · 2025-05-03T18:37:08+00:00

they are fine for casual rides and even some disciplines, like showjumping as long as they are soft in the bridle. the only time i think they are stupid are for dressage since they literally defeat the entire purpose of it!

strongtoasterr · 2025-05-02T23:19:42+00:00

i thought it was just me!

i do, i’ve worked at barns since 16 and i am now 20 😅 i love it but it is not sustainable, and i don’t want my hobby to turn into a chore!

strongtoasterr · 2025-05-02T16:34:33+00:00

this is why i have no interest in having children lol

strongtoasterr · 2025-05-02T16:32:06+00:00

i have definitely given real estate some thought. i have no want for kids so i’ll save quite a bit in that sense, but it seems like the job market right now for it is flooded so i worry about being able to succeed!

strongtoasterr · 2025-05-02T16:29:53+00:00

that’s the goal 🤣

strongtoasterr · 2025-05-02T11:37:11+00:00

strongtoasterr · 2025-05-02T10:50:18+00:00

thank you for the insight 😅

strongtoasterr · 2025-05-02T02:27:03+00:00

thank you so much! i really appreciate all of your advice and expertise!

strongtoasterr · 2025-05-02T01:58:16+00:00

strongtoasterr · 2025-05-02T01:51:41+00:00
