3 Options for Boarding Your Horse
You’ve been searching for the perfect horse and you have finally found her. She’s beautiful, gentle and loves you just as much as you love her. You can picture the long-awaited rides, bringing your horse her favorite treats, and sharing her with your kids or grandkids. She’s everything that you’ve ever dreamed of. There’s only one problem. Where are you going to keep her? Don’t be in despair. Here are three options for boarding your horse.
Self-Care Boarding
Self-care boarding is truly as the title describes. For a simple stall rental fee, you can have a place to board your horse. You’ll be completely responsible for all of the related care. From purchasing and administering food to mucking stalls, everything your horse needs can be provided by your caring hands. This is a great option if you live next door or down the road from a self-care boarding stable and would like to see your horse every day.
Full-Service Boarding
Another option is full-service boarding. If you are interested mainly in riding your horse but would like the daily care to be done by a professional, full-service boarding can be a fantastic option. However, be prepared to pay for it. The charge for stall rental, food, veterinary fees, professional care, and other expenses can add up quickly. Take time to interview full-service stable in the area, get recommendations from long-term boarders, and even check with several veterinary clinics in town. You’ll be able to get a good feel for the best place to board your horse.
Become Your Own Boarder
The best option: Become your own boarder. When you consider the cost of stall rental or full-service boarding, owning your own horse and letting someone else provide shelter and care can substantially add up over time. With an exceptional steel barn from VersaTube, you can cut your costs, board your horse on your own property, and even consider renting out stalls to other horse owners.
