Do NOT send your horses away for any reason, including training. Keep in mind that some players are not honest and will ask for a greater payment than originally agreed. Since the horse was sent – given as a gift – nothing can be done to recover the horse. The player receiving the horse has every right to sell it or increase the price and hold the horse for ransom till you agree to pay whatever exorbitant price that player chooses to resell it to you. Since you chose to send your horse as a gift this is not a stolen horse, it is a gift that the player is reselling. The best way to get your horse leveled up is enter your own horse in shows, or hire other players in services if you have an employers hat, or hire a player using the partners function.

This does not affect custom horses since they are purchased by the custom maker and leveled to your specifications and then offered for sale.

Blogs with horse hotels, boarding or any other form of scamming for a horse is not allowed.

You can set your horse up for lifetime food, treats and grooming in services – AVH stable.
The cost of lifetime care:
Food is twice 10years which is 15000 x 2 = 30000
Grain is twice 10years which is 90000 x 2 = 180000
Expert grooming twice 10years which is 115000 x 2 = 230000
This means for a total cost of 440000 (440k) coins your horse will have the best of everything from birth to retirement.
