When looking for a horse breeder, the most important consideration is to research for a breeder that provides horses for the specific type of performance that the individual desires. Find out how to meet breeders at shows with help from a horse riding teacher in this free video on horse breeders.
This is Maggie Connolly with Hawthorne Stables, I want to talk to you briefly about finding a good breeder. There are many type breeding shows. So once you have done your research, and you determine the type of breed of horse that you are looking for, the one that is conducive to doing the performance job that you are looking for the horse to do you can always look online, and find out in your local area where that breeder type is holding inspections. And therefore you can go, and actually enjoy these shows, and look at what the professionals are looking for as far as the qualities, and the standards of that breed. And of course at those shows you can meet and greet with the people who do either provide breeding services or breed those horses, and then you can ask them as many questions as you want to, and also just have your opportunity to meet these people, and then decide who it is you want to do business with. Those are components for finding a good breeder, and this is Maggie Connolly with Hawthorne Stables.
