Costs. Even if it is really your passion to own one, for sure, there are some things that can stop you from buying such as thinking about the possible holes it may leave on your wallet which means having expensive costs. You will need to but the horses separately with their accessories. These items include reins, saddles, brushes, and buckets. Checking on horse photos can be helpful to see other needed items.

Not only these accessories are needed to be provided but as well as shoes, food, and veterinary care. So therefore, if you decide to have only one, it is more like you are buying already several horses if the costs are considered. Horses may sometimes experience having fractured legs or arms, and if these cannot be given with an immediate treatment, this will surely become deleterious for them.

Time. Caring for one will need an enough amount of time. Caring for it would include brushing the mane and tail, cleaning the coat, removing the dirt and the feces from hooves, changing the bedding, feeding, riding, and exercising them. All of these tasks usually take few hours in a day, away from the busy lifestyle you already have.

Smells. Similar to humans and other animals, the food being taken will always come out to an opposite side. The horse manure will be quite smelly and much worse, it can attract a lot of flies. The flies are considered as nuisance especially if the horse will react to them, making the flies decide on having a taste of you as well.

Training. Most of the horses will need to undergo some necessary trainings. Some of them would easily spook and there are also some who would engage into bad behaviors. These unwanted bad behaviors usually are present in adult horses. The previous owner of it will surely not tell you about this and you will really have a hard time in fixing this. And thus, seeking the help of a professional is suggested.

Health issues. There are times when horses would encounter some health problems such as those minor ones or those serious issues that can be life threatening. Hooves are the most common shelter for parasites, thus, these must be checked regularly. To administer routinely the vaccines must be considered and also preventive care. Preventing colics may be hard or impossible at times.

Attachment. Being attached is really not a disadvantage and this is because you were able to win a price of owning one. Most owners get attached easily with this four legged animal, most especially if they have great passion for it. However, life changing events cannot be avoided in which owners cannot keep them any longer.

As a conclusion, to face different disadvantages is really possible in spite of being passionate. But in fact, to have the passion can overcome and eliminate the cons. Having the cutest grumble and being intelligent is what most people love about them.
