Horses Available for on Farm Lease
The Next Best thing to Owning your Horse!
Take Your Riding to the Next Level!
Ever Dreamed of Owning Your Own Horse? As your skills advance and your interest peaks, you may take advantage of the opportunity to lease a horse of your own. If you are an intermediate or advanced level student who is riding regularly in our group riding lessons, you may lease A Lazy J Ranch owned horse. The horse leasing and showing program allows you to work with your leased horse in pleasure riding, local shows, clinics and recreational rides.
While in the horse leasing program, you can continue weekly lessons with the added benefit of lease rides and competition on your leased horse. This program is designed for students who are able to ride independently, at the walk, trot and canter, and able to tack up on their own. Lease options are a great way for riders considering buying a horse to gain practical ownership experience without taking on all the costs associated with the purchase and care of a horse. Horse leasing also provides the novice the opportunity to accelerate their skills, confidence, and experience that horse ownership requires without many of the upkeep costs involved. For example, Lazy J Ranch assumes costs for training, insurance, farrier, and vet services and will provide the means for you to get experience at local shows competitions and clinics.
