Some people want someone to look after their horse which would be a good start fro you they advertise as horse to loan or you could advertise horse wanted on loan. The other bills are vets bills always big. Field rent and shoeing which I believe is around £50.00 for a set of shoes and they need to have them seen to about every six weeks. Even if they haven't worn through them the farrier takes them off to cut the feet back and then puts them on again. It's his time and expertise that you pay for more than the shoes really. Why don't you put an ad in a paper and see what replies you get? The cost of buying can be anything depending on what you are looking for.
