Lindsey provides two different types of services for people who are buying/trying to find horses:

1) Agent Services: You provide Lindsey your search criteria, Lindsey meets with you to assess your abilities, and then Lindsey seeks and finds potential horses for you to try. Lindsey accompanies you to try these horses and helps you from start to finish with asking the seller pertinent questions to reviewing the bill of sale. She also helps you to negotiate price and finalize the sale including a trial (if required) and vet/farrier inspections (if required).

Benefits to this service:

• This is service is perfect for those that have busy schedules and don’t have the time to search all the classifieds, email and phone horse owners, and arrange viewings.
• If you aren’t tech savvy then this service is great because you don’t have to worry about dealing with search engines, etc.
• Lindsey’s vast experience with match making horses to riders is well practiced; many people can tell you about a horse that they probably should not have bought… having a professional help to find a horse that is suitable can make all the difference.
• If you aren’t comfortable with negotiating, or asking lots of questions, this service helps to give you peace of mind that someone else has your best interests in mind.
• If you aren’t sure of all the things to look for in a horse then this service is great to make sure that nothing gets missed.
• If you like to look at a lot of horses, this service can be a more economical way to have Lindsey perform consults on horses.

2) Consultation: Think you have found the right match? Lindsey can provide consultation on a horse by horse basis. Lindsey will visit the horse and perform a full assessment to test the horse’s abilities and suitability based on your criteria and needs.

Benefits to this service:

• This service is great if you have the time and tech savvy to search for possible horses, but still want a second opinion.
• Having a knowledgeable horse professional assess the horse can point out behavioural, characteristics, and potential training points that a vet or farrier will not be assessing.
• Horse by horse consultations can be perfect for someone with a limited budget, but who still wants a professional second opinion.
• Even if you have your own coach or trainer, but you want an outside opinion, this service is very useful.
• Getting an assessment done of your horse can help you to understand the horse, where the weaknesses and strengths are, and if the horse is suited for your needs.
