I charge 350 for that and it includes any therapy needed. When winter hits because of hay it goes up unless they furnish it.
Therapy=vibe plate, massage, cold lasers, alphasonic soundwave, equissager, back on track, magnetics, ice vibe ect.

The going rate right now is between $450 and $600. Some cheaper but there no good and some higher but that's the average.

$550 is about what my husband charges. This includes feed. If its a horse that the customer wants worked on cattle (roping) its $600. Prices can vary quite a bit from trainer to trainer, depending on their notariety, the dicipline they train,  ect.  So in my area, hardly anyone breaks colts for the public anymore. The nearest person is a couple hours away and he charges like $750. Lots of factors determine prices.

I usually charge about $500 for just legging one up for a month, hay and feed provided.

Honestly, if I just needed a horse to be long-trotted/loped around, I would not send it off to a "trainer." I'd find a high school/college kid that I trust, that rides even just decent, doesn't have to be a world champ to come long trot my horse. If you have one close by, I'd just ask them to come to your house to ride him.

I remember when I was 15-16 I'd do stuff like this for $200/month. That's not even $10 a ride and I thought I was doing awesome! Lol!

My daughter loped horses at a cutting trainers place this summer for 25.00 a day. The horses were broke finished only needed exercise. This was 3 horses so it took her about 1 1/2 to 2 hours a day. (They have a walker so horses were trotted first). So if you are going to someones place to ride their horse that's not bad money for a high school/college kid looking for entry fee money.

out here its 800.00 to 1100.00 usually if they ride them 3 months that will get you 100.00 discount a month. 

These are people that ride full time with respectable reputations.........

I charge $10 per ride plus $5 per day for feed. Owner is responsible for cost of farrier, worming, vet, etc. My price is a little low compared to others in the area, but I don't do this full time and it takes some talking to get me to take outside horses because I stay busy with our own. Occasionally we send one to the feedyard and the guy that rides for us there charges more, but these horses get a good workout and come home very broke.
