When you full lease a horse you pay an agreed upon fee for exclusive access to the horse.

It is pretty much exactly like owning the horse yourself.
Full Leasing a Horse When you full lease a horse you pay an agreed upon fee for exclusive access to the horse. This means you are the only one riding the horse.
Option #1: The person leasing the horse is responsible for all of the horse's expenses (board, feed, veterinary, farrier, etc). The person leasing the horse may ride or use the horse any time they'd like. Full leases rarely restrict riding days, times, or horse-related events, like attending a horse show.
The Half-Lease Contract.In this type of agreement, the owner of the horse or lessor splits the horse's care expenses and riding time with a lessee. It can be a beneficial way to save money on board, feed, vet bills, etc., and it can be great for your horse if your own saddle time is limited.
Lease-to-Buy Equine Contract To purchase the horse, the buyer will pay the full purchase price during the lease term. During this time, the buyer will continue making lease payments per the parties' agreement, which will potentially go toward the total purchase price of the horse.
A free lease means that the horse is leased to someone without any payment to the owner. When you have a free lease you retain ownership and control of your horse but your horse, in best case scenarios, is still cared for and loved. Everyone wins. The owner has good care for the horse they love.
FULL LEASE: For $400 per month, you will have full, exclusive use of the horse. Full-leases require that you also pay to the costs of routine farrier and health care, which will vary according to the horse's needs.
