In most cases, horse leasing is best suited for riders who have some riding experience and are ready for more consistency in the saddle. Beginner riders typically start withlessons and may transition into leasing as their skills and confidence develop. Our trainers can help determine when a lease is the right next step.

Yes. All horse leasing programs at White Fences require enrollment in our lesson program. This ensures that riders continue to develop their skills while maintaining proper training and care for the horse. Lessons are scheduled separately from lease rides and are tailored to your individual goals.

A partial lease at White Fences includes a set number of rides per month (typically four), while a full lease provides more frequent riding opportunities (around eight rides per month). Both options include professional horse care such as farrier and routine veterinary services, and both require participation in our lesson program to ensure proper training…

If a leased horse becomes unavailable due to soundness, is sold or due to training needs, White Fences will work with the lessee to review available options as outlined in the lease agreement.

Show participation with leased horses may be permitted with prior approval and is dependent on the horse’s training plan, soundness, and lease terms.

Leasing is not required for participation in the training program. Riders may train with their own horses or lease when appropriate.

Lease terms vary but typically require a minimum commitment. Specific duration and renewal options are discussed during the leasing process.

Leasing is best suited for riders committed to consistent training and lesson participation. Rider suitability is assessed to ensure a safe and productive partnership for both horse and rider.

Responsibility for veterinary and farrier costs is outlined in the lease agreement and varies depending on the lease structure. This is reviewed in detail prior to finalizing a lease.
