HORSE TRAINING FOR DUMMIES

New Horse Owner Checklist: Prepare for Arrival

Track practical horse ownership preparations, save progress on your device and print a checklist to review with your instructor.

A preparation aid, not a safety certificate

Use this checklist to organize conversations with your instructor, boarding manager, veterinarian and farrier. Checking every box does not establish that you or your facilities are ready.

Progress is temporary until you choose to save it. Avoid saving on a shared device.

Make the checklist your own

Review any unchecked item with the person who will help you handle or care for the horse. Your situation may need additional arrangements. Add notes to a printed copy and keep important contact details somewhere accessible.

Next: build a budget with local quotes or return to the new owner guide.

YOUR NEXT STEP CAN BE SIMPLE.

Start with a plan.
