ive been told vicky hesford is good and she is in my area

thankyou very much for taking time to read

[mee]

I don't think vicky hesford was producing last year What about Mel Booth?
Is actual producing, or backing/breaking?

I don't know how much the people are who have been mentioned, but from a few years back, I'd say you will be looking at anything from £150 a week up wards, plus add ons such as lessons, travel (for pony), mane pulling, plaiting and so on.

An expensive old game, but from personal experience and circs worth it. ;D

[trytohelp]

What area are you in?

[Trio]

£120 per week in Scotland

[reply]

In leicestershire/derbyshire between (for me on full showing livery lessons etc.)

£400-£600 a month normally at the top of the range.

[Wiltshire Man]

WOW!!! that's a terrible expensive. I've heard lots of good rider in Southern area charge from £90 a week for everything, but an extra for diesel

[done it myself]

Average price is around £125-£150 includes all livery and lessons.
extras are transport to shows entry fees vet and farrier Kate Carter and Jill Thompson are very good and do their job extremely well and the ponies go out daily.

[tiggy]

Cherry top stud - they are not nearly as expensive and have done a great job on my mare for me

:)If youre looking for someone in Cheshire area that is good at her job and HONEST!!!! which is a trait worth having, try Melanie Booth, you wont be dissapointed and you wont be bankrupt at the end of the season. She is based in Betley Nr Crewe.

[dillis]

Herts and essex area must be reasonable then from about £80 to £120 excluding diesel,

[surprised]

Gosh is Katie Jeram that cheap???

[refifsneke]

Definately not!!!! I had a grey horse with her a few years ago, and was charged extra for show preparation because it needed more shampoo!!! She was however the best teacher I have ever had and is the most lovely lady - really fun and positive. Couldn't possibly afford her now(not because her prices have gone up as I don't know how much she charges now, but because I am skint!) but would always like to go to her for lessons.

Why don't you do the job yourself. I produce my grandaughters lead rein ponies from home. I have someone who helps with the schooling (and charges £20 to ride three ponies). If you don't know about showing get a good book and learn the ringcraft and so on. If you do know what you are doing then you can have lots of fun and there is a real sense of achievement if you have done it yourself. Its just a suggestion and there may be reasons why you can't do it yourself but we have competed at all the major shows, Olympia, HOYS etc with huge success from home where the is no indoor school, no grooms and not a huge amount of money to spare - if I can do it anyone can! (ps I am disabled too!)

If you are after somebody who is cheap and honest and runs a friendly yard then give Melanie Booth a call, she is in cheshire. They also go in the field everyday, NOT stabled 24/7!!!

[how much]

How much does Melanie Booth charge a friend has a LR and a grandchild that she would love to be produced but is on a budget

[annika]

[wonder]

I dont mean this in a rude way but what does and has she produced? Just wondering?

[meme]

She produced Tybanadl Gwilym when claire collier had him.

Sorry but I don't think it is appropriate to talk about someone's rates on a public forum unless you have their permission to do so.

[annika]

Melanie produces SHP SP M&M Coloured's anything! She is brill. she will tell you her prices and will not be affended if you can not afford. She has produced for many years and been successful with getting everything to HOYS!
