6 Steps To A Successful Horse Rental

Renting a horse can be a gamble, especially for those who don't ride frequently. Choosing stables and horses can feel overwhelming for the non-equestrian, however the process is simple if you follow these six basic steps.

1. Choose your stable wisely - Stables are harder and harder to find as the urban sprawl grows, however rental stables are not a dying breed just yet. When choosing a stable to rent from, there are several things to consider:

The grounds - The stable should be well- lit and clean and gates, fences, walls, and hitching posts should be in good repair. A state of disarray could indicate poor staffing and maintenance. The animals - Horses should appear clean, healthy and well fed. Unhealthy horses could be abused and should be reported. The people - Horse people are friendly and love the equine animal, people who run a good establishment will want to answer questions and educate timid riders.

2. Be honest about your skill level - Offering staff at the stable honest information about your level of horse experience will enable them to choose the best mount for you. Most stables will have a range of horses to suit different riders, although generally they are older mounts geared towards beginners.

3. Read the paperwork - Renting a horse raises liability issues, so there is usually paperwork to sign. The sole purpose of these contracts is to absolve the stable of liability should an accident occur, so read them carefully before you sign them.

4. go with a guide - Most horse renting facilities will send you out with a mounted guide, and if you are given a choice, always go with someone. Their purpose is not just to show you the prettiest trails, but to lend support to beginners and to be there if problems arise.

5. Relax - Horses can sense fear, so the best way to enjoy a rental is to relax and enjoy the ride.

6. Be kind - Remember, the only reason you are ever on a horses back is because that horse is allowing you to be there. The beauty of riding a horse is the partnership between you and the animal, be kind to your mounts and treat them with the respect their great size deserves.
