- Have you wanted your own a horse your whole life? Are you ready to make that dream come true? Watch this video to learn how get started! These are the steps to take to buy your very first horse!
I keep my promises! First week of summer and here is the requested horse video as promised!
This video is an example of why I don’t like filming outside often. Nature is loud! The static noise is actually not static, a bug decided to sing the song of his people during most of my video. Then you can also hear frogs once in a while. And the Alpacas got some spot light too. Hope you enjoy it despite the noise!

As a trainer of 20+ years, trader and instructor, I have to say most of these "how to buy your first horse" videos make me cringe and want to scream. I am very pleased with the content in this video and I feel you covered the basics nicely. Well done.
+Mary Cook thanks!
Mary Cook thank u for the help I ride and love horses and I am capable of looking after them I'm truly exited to get my first
and my aunty owns a field and my uncles a breeder farrier and trainer
I have been riding since I was 2 1/2 😍😍😍
Annabelle Chua-Tran it's not dangerous if know how to do it. I do it and I'm fine and alive.
wait what? People actually buy horses without seeing them in person first? That seems like a lot of money to be throwing away.
animalobsessed1 I know!
Actually it's not that uncommon to do that, especially overseas or with weanlings/yearlings.
Poot I do see that. I have seen so many cases of people who are new to horse keeping, end up buying the "perfect/bomp proof" horse that ends up needing a bunch of training and ends up being sold again.
Personally I don't think people 100% new to horses should even buy a horse. I'd recommend leasing for a long time until they are more ready for ownership.
Poot I agree. People just don't realize that keeping a horse is hard work and really expensive. They need to be ready to be broke so their horse can be "rich" 😂
I was cantering on my horse yesterday and I went over a jump and he lost his balance and fell and I flew off and he fell on me.
Disclaimer: we are both alright
OH NO!Thankfully your ok
Good thing ur alright and the horse of course
I hope you and your horse are alright! Be careful
Your mare is so patient and calm! My grandmas mare would have just walked off without a care in the world😝 This was a very good video as well, thank you for all your information!
I might get a horse 🐎! But I will keep it at a horse stable because there is not enough room at my house
Same I live in big island.
How can someone be so lucky to own a horse😭😭😭😭
Wow lucky I ride my cow 😂
same
tianti burrows wow I’m moving from Oahu there and am trying to purchase a horse but I can’t find any :(
I love horses! I plan on getting one when I'm much older. Thanks for the tips, Meghan!
At 0:23 your dog looked like a wolf.
More like a dingo
PITBULLS 4 LIFE I thought so to
Jesi ti iz Hrv
ya
I thought it was a dingo
This video has helped me so much. We are moving to a 38 acre property and getting a horse. I've grew up around horses and always wanted one of my own. I took horse back riding lessons and finally I'm getting my own. Thanks
You are right horses are not easy!! It is very clear that you love your horse.
Really good sensible info into the all important basics ...I'm very impressed with this...your delivery is also very refreshing...not ego fuelled and self absorbed. Very helpful and pleasant...the horseworld needs more people like you...I hope yr continuing ..
Such a helpful video I’m also getting or leasing a horse I’ve had a few years experience not just riding but caring and I’ve done tons and tons of research
This video helped so much! Thank you!!❤️
Thanks because I have been doing a lot of stuff for a horse and I starting to leash
Thank you! I'm buying a horse in the spring of this year! 💖
That was great, I'm in the market for my first horse so the vet and farrier tip just makes sense. I really want one of those grey horses that turn white that would be sick but maybe not logical.
I liked the little goat they are awsome I love how they jump on your back.
That horse is absolutly gorgeous!!
This video was awesome I found it very knowledgable and interesting I learned a lot and am hoping to get a horse fairly soon
This is SO helpful 🙋♀️🐎🐴
This was really informative ! Thank you!
Thank you for teaching me that
it will be handy
Thank you, I have been interested I just didn’t know what to get. 😁😊thx
Thx very helpful. If you can could you please make a video about what you need to look at when you go look for a new horse and what you need to check on it before buying it
I am getting my first horse later today! I'm so excited
Congratulations!!
such a chill pon
Omg thank you so much 😊 my dad has said he will get me a horse 🐴 so this is so helpful seeing as he has no experience. 🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽🎠🎠🎠🎠🎠🎠🎠🎠🎠🎠🎠🎠🎠🎠🎠🎠🎠🎠🎠
These videos are great for me because I'm just starting 4H this year !!!!!!!!!🐴🐴🐴🐴
Trying a horse for the first time on sunday and im very excited and hope it all works out! Ive been riding for 9 years and have been going on lease horses for a while now and it pains me to see young people who just start buying horses. Thank you for this!
area3eventing how did that go? It's super exciting! I've been riding about a year now and I'm thinking about my first lease horse. I'll start leasing once I move to a jumping barn 😊
I am going to buy one of the horses I already ride in lessons :) She was used for research before my instructor rescued her, so she gets grumpy sometimes :/ But she doesn't buck, is trained for the level I am comfortable going in eventing, and is super sweet :) I love your vids! Thanks so much for all the advice!
Currently on the look for my first horse, I’ve been looking for years and finally found one I’m interested in, I help out at a rescue with horses when I visit Florida and I also go to the ranch with my friend and learn everything I can about horses to gain that experience, will also be getting lessons even though I’m learning to ride Better with my friends horse. Great advice ❤️
The one question I’m always stuck on is ‘What are you looking for?’ I get anxiety talking to people I don’t really know hah, but I know I’m looking for a calm collected horse with the possibility of being able to do trails and jumping.
Im seeing these everywhere and have been thinking about it a lot, sadly my parents are definitely not getting me a horse. But it can’t be a coincidence I’m seeing these videos everywhere on my recommandation page😅
Love horses and your video about your horse
I just have to say to say that your horse looks to be the most contented animal I've ever seen outside maybe my own dog. I can watch this video over and over just watching her. .. Wilburrrrrrr...
so informative you should do a live Q and A I have lots of questions
Thanks for all ur help 🙂
Thank you. You have been a big help
I’m getting a horse! 💙 I’m so excited 😆
That is one adorable pony.
I Love Your Horse! I love horses in all!
I love your horse! She's so laid back like one of my mares I own. I do barrel racing and pleasure. Also on a more random note I love Caspian and (I don't know the other dog) fighting in the background 😂
Also thank you for including that people need to see the horse ridden first! Most people don't mention that and I worry for the beginners buying horses as they don't know to ask. Or in some cases are scared or nervous to ask very many questions.
This was very helpful! In 6 or more months my mom, sister and I will be moving and I'll be getting 2 horses. So this was very helpful! :)
Awesome video! Wish I knew those things before getting my first horse. Luckily it worked out!
Can you do a video on what you feed Rainbow? I'm looking into getting my horse off grains and onto something he can actually eat.
My dad owns 5 Chuckwagon thoroughbreds (he had 20 before he took a break) I've been living around horses most of my life until my mom moved our family to the city. My mom and dad decided to buy an acreage and my dads getting me a horse. I thought horses weren't scary and I could lead them to the barn and all that, but I went to my dads farm (where he keeps his horses. It just has a gate and some trucks) and I went up to them and I was terrified. I've forgotten how to deal with horses!! I don't know how I'm gonna deal with my own horse, but over time I'll get used to him/Her. It takes time. Great video by the way!
Great advice to new horse owners
I have being riding for over one year now and I have worked at the stable before a few times manly mucking out the stables, helping with the morning routine, making theirs beds for the night, taking them up and a few other jobs important for their health and safety. I am hoping you get my first job up there so I can make up the money to buy my own horse while working there hopefully as my some of my family also know the owners would asking them be a good tip? Also love these videos really helpful
beautiful horse
Hi I’m 11 and I started riding horse when I was 5 and loved it I started leasing a horse named Malibu when I was 6 but two years after that I couldn’t lease him anymore so I leased a pony named chippy, I was the only one who could ride him without chippy freaking out and about 4 months after came Christmas and my parents bought him for me and he was 26 at the time and we were the perfect pair he was a gelding and sometimes would bolt but personally it was easy to handle. I had chippy for two long and happy years then he passed away and it took about 4 months to find another horse named Zoe who was the sweetest and most calm girl and I didn’t want her but we still got her and as soon as he got her I renamed her Callie and now I’ve had her almost a year, I couldn’t be happier. And I want to say you did really good at explaining al this to someone who hasn’t owned a horse before 😊👍🏻
These are very good to know 👏🏽👏🏽
i LOVE how you did one for a beginners!
Thank you!
np!
Thank u sooooo much for doing this vid u have really helped me u deserve way more subs X
Thank you!
Great advice,
I really love Barry the parrot, rainbow the horse and all of the goats!
awww, Rainbow got sleepy and is acting SO cute!!!! X3
I have been riding and taking care of horses for a long time now, but still, I don't feel ready yet... Not because of money (and I am broke...), and not because of time (I don't have a lot of time either, but yea...), but because of experiences. I have a lot of experiences, but it feels like that I don't have enought... I am doing the first year of agricultre, Forestry and Fishing, and we have horses there too and I chosed to be with the horses. I have learned a lot, but I need more. I am reading about horses when I have time and when I feel for it and I know what breed I want (I want the Norwegian Lyngen Horse, Haflinger, Icelandic Horse, etc), but I want to wait a bit more too. For me, I think that's the best for me and the futured horse :) But I'm very glad that you made this video, so I can take this with me :)
Do you live on a ranch? That seems to be the only logical explanation for the amount of animals you have.
Wow, OMGOSH, I didn't realize that 4 animals were considered a ranch, (I'm being sarcastic) that's not all of animals
No they are to teach people on how to care for and become friends with them as she said in the intro
J R Huh? She’s just asking a question... don’t lash out, seems she’s watched other videos to know Happytails has a lot of animals. :) don’t be sarcastic it’s not very nice.
Country Life she has a lot more then 4
@@thepetobsessedrainbow it was Sarcasm.
I love your horse it’s so pretty
THANK YOU SO MUCH NOW IM READY TO BUY MY FIRST HORSE IN 2 YEARS
I love happy trails!
I'm lucky to grow up with horses, I go to an amazing farm and have lessons and their my favorite animal!!!!
I'm 13 and have a stallion and I just started riding about a year ago and he is a great horse but I also do barrels and pole bending
Love the horses!!😻🐴🐴
I ride horses since like 1 year old and I always wanted a horse
this helped me so much thank you
I love your horse soo much I have 6 horses I've always wanted a Mustang
I love horses and great video!
Thanks!
I love your horse rainbow😻😻😻
Your channel is so amazing! it is so true that horses are large and majestic. The worst case sanario with a horse is if they are a little too determand. My relatives own a farm and have horses, their friend boards two horses at the farm. When my cousin and I were six, and my siblings were two and four we heard an awfle shreak come from the pasture. On of the two boarding horses got tangled in the fence. All of the adults told us five kids to stay inside. (two cousins, my siblings and me.) We sat at the window and watched the adults franticly cut the electric fence off of the horse. My little three year old cousin screamed, my sister sobbed, and my brother ran into the bathroom to hide. My cousin and I, being only six stared in utter horror. The horse got free and was fine after that but he still was scared for life. Mentally and pysicly. All of this had started for a bite of grass on the other side of the fence. Thank you for showing the importants of a proper encloser.
Love your horse
love your horse
Yep. Can't argue with any of that. All good common sense advice.
However, I kept worrying about the halter/headcollar on Rainbow.
Need to see more horses
i really hope that you will make more videos about horses
What a good video 😍
Getting a horse soon !! I have the money but since it’s corona virus I have to wait until after
Great video! Thank you so much!
Glad you liked it!
nice vid...very informative....you must be quite a person to take interest and care of all these different animals...
This video is exceptional and very informative. Do you mind making a 'bits vs hackamore' video?
My horses live both in stall and in pasture. My horses Ti, Hershey, Angel, and Pronto live in a huge pasture in the spring and summer where there is lots of grass. Also, In the spring and summer they don’t ear hay, they just eat grass, chaff in thier buckets and a little bit of grain. In the winter and fall, they are stalled in oversized stalls and eat hay and grain. (Chaff counts as forage so I guess they eat hay)
All of this is true! I have a horse, she's 14.3 hands, she is a mix, we don't no what she's mixed with, but she is clam but fast!!! And I do jumps,
Rainbow 🌈 is so beautiful 😍
Ive always wanted my own horse their my favorite animal
Thank you so much 👍👍👍
I love horses!!
Is rainbow a mustang? I see what looks like a mustang brand on her neck
+Tiro Wolfe yes she is 😄
Thats really awesome! I love to see more people taking in the wild horses :) Definitely a dream of mine to become skilled enough to keep a mustang.
Thank you :)
Is how much does rainbow cost per year?
Tiro Wolfe mustangs are freely roaming horses so there is no way 🦄
