What is the average annual salary of a horse trainer?

Answer 1

That depends on what type of training you are doing? Pleasure riding, racing, jumping, roping, barrels, steer Wrestling, cutting, etc. I have been training roping and working cow horses for 10 years. I work for an individual and I am paid $65,000 a year. I have a friend who trains race horses and is paid over $100,000 a year. If you train for a barn you get paid a lot different price range

Answer 2

That varies drastically depending on the region of operation, the clientele, the discipline, the trainer's expertise, reputation, and success of their students. I have known trainers to make around 200k per year or more, and some who made 30k one year and 70k the next. It's a very fluid income as it is not fixed. Trainers in the dressage, hunter and jumper disciplines make the most, as these disciplines require lots of practice and the levels go up to the Olympics. The horses involved will usually be highly valuable, expensive warmbloods, who both cost a lot to train and buy. Trainers will charge form 30 to 200 dollars per lesson or training session, in my experience, but your hourly rate needs to be relative to your level of experience and reputation, and also your area. Trainers make the most on the very eastern and western coasts as this is where there is the most money and where the most English riding is done. There is much less money in western disciplines. A good solid western horse will sell for anywhere between 5k and 30k. A good warmblood jumper will sell for at least 80k. Some have sold for millions.
Ask someone at the reference desk of your local public library for the Occupational Outlook Handbook. It lists all kinds of information you would need to know,(including the salary) of just about any occupation you can think of.

Most horse trainers make around 500-1000 US dollars per month. It really depends on what disiplines you teach. If you get into the professional buisiness ex. training horses for the Olympics or race horses for the Kentucky Derby, you can make much more than 500-1000 dollars per month.
Horse trainers do not have a set income. It all depends on your level of training and how good you are at what you do. Being a horse Trainer is Prob. one of the hardest job choice to make money in.

Answer 3

When starting out, a horse trainer can make $8,000 to $12,000 a year; after ten years you will make $25,000 to $40,000 a year; and top earnings of $60,000 to $75,000 per year. You have to have a high school education, and an associates or bachelor's degree in equine science.
