What is this horse worth?

She's NOT for sale. I'm just curiouse. She's my leading horse.


Lightning.





A pure quarter horse, around 14-15 hands. Only 8 years old.... She is trained in


*dressage


*vaulting


*english


*speed


*jumping (Cross country included)


*and a little bit of western pleasure (not to much)





She stands perfectly in a crossties and for showmanship she sets her self up...has perfect headset ALWAYS. Does great on trails. She does spook at time, but doesnt take off running. She likes to be in the lead though on a group ride. She loves young children.


WORSE THINGS: only listens to me, but will listen to the person if im there/around...doesnt like male riders (bucks) very odd...lol








So how much do you think Lightning is worth?


(not that i would EVER sell her...i raised her sense birth)|||the question is how far did she get in those disciplines? We would have to look at confirmation and movement as well.





you can easily say a horse is trained in all these disciplines. but what level dressage, or jumpers?





I would have to say $1000, not knowing the level of training. It would probably be less down south where horses tend to be cheaper.





remember, price doesnt matter :) you love her, then shes worth millions





EDIT: Ok well then dont ask if she is not worth our guessing price lol you asked , I answered. in MY area, horses like this are going cheap, so this is just according to MY experience|||A picture would be really nice,


if I had to buy your horse, I would check for dressage, if a horse doesn't know the basic dressage things then it's probably not good for real show jumping. English 10/10 sounds interesting, and jumping 9/10 also sounds very promising. I think from the given information, that your horse was overpriced, when a horse gets older, the price should go up, not down...but sadly to say, I would pay about 2,500 for her. Maybe if you trained her in dressage really well, I'd pay you 4,500-5,000 :)|||First off, Quarter horses are not a purebred breed....Arabians, Morgans, Paso Finos some pony breeds ect...AQHA, APHA ApHA ect are breeds that are registered. There is a difference. 2nd, your horse is a dime a dozen in todays market. Why are you just not thankful that you love your horse and that she provides what you need instead of putting a monetary value on her if she is not for sale. There is an old saying, something is worth what someone else is willing to pay for it. Stop worrying about it cause no matter what someone says you will be insulted.|||How high does she jump? What level dressage? What can she do in english? what about a confirmation picture?





Those are key factors for what can determine a horses price, haha. If I had a confirmation picture Id be able to tell you a more accurate price. But personally she can do a lott of stuff, so maybe... 4500 +?





You offered some information but it wasnt really detailed.|||shes sounds like a good girl.





considering her issues w/others and men. xD and me not knowing how far she has got in these disciplines and that i dont know what she looks like or her conformation i would say anywhere from $1000-$5000|||well i would pay biiiiiig money for that horse. she sounds like an ideal horse, $10,000 at the least. you can look at www.dreamhorse.com to get i better idea of how much she is woarth|||She sounds perfect but considering the fact that she won't listen to anyone but you nobody would buy her as anything but a broodmare. but if you were selling her to urself (u get what i mean) i'd say 10k+|||Hmm.. she sounds like an excellent little mare! But the fact that she only listens to you, and bucks off male riders brings down her price a bit unfortunately :( But, because she has good bloodlines, that brings her price up :D So, I would have to say that because she can do such a wide variety of things, she is probably worth about $4500-$5500 in today's market. It all depends on her conformation and bloodlines though. If I could see some pictures it would help a bit, but there is a rough price range for ya!


All the best,


Ally


P.S: And I agree, she is definitely NOT worth $1000, whoever said that needs a brain check because she sounds like an awesome little mare!|||a 14 hand horse usually weighs about 850 to 900lbs and the butchers are paying about .26 cents per pound X 900lbs = $234.00 You say she is registered but do not give any pedigree, or her degree of training, or what she has won, You also said you raised her from birth, then you said you gave $3000 for her when she was a year old, I can not be sure you even own a horse, but if you do own this horse with her problems, she should be sent to a trainer to be trained. With out training, she is worth 26 cents per pound.
