Answer
Hi Tammine;

The cost of horses is not a question I can answer since it varies from region to region.  You have feed, vet, farrier, boarding costs, tack, lessons, the purchase price etc...  All these things and others to consider.  

Ask some people around who already own horses in your area about the cost of things.

If you're scared of being around more than a couple of horses at a time, then don't go into an area that has more horses in it than that.  If you have to go in, then take someone who's experienced with horses, with you.

Best wishes!

Sincerely,
