Hemphill’s Horses, Feed, and Saddlery Horse and Pony Sales Information
Buying and Trading
We buy horses from a number of sources including friends along the East Coast and others out west. When buying from local buyers we ask them to send photos, a video, and information about the horse to emily@hemphillshorses.com, so we can determine if the horse will be a good fit in our camp leasing herd and the sales barn. Trades are considered. Keep in mind we buy at wholesale prices as there is overhead in working or training, feeding, and advertising these horses.
Horse Purchase Deposit Policy
Some horses may be held with a deposit prior to purchase. A deposit of 10% of the asking price will hold a sale horse or pony for 3 business days. During that time, you may come back and try the horse again if you wish and you may also arrange a vet check if you plan to do one. Pre-purchase vet exams are optional and at the buyer’s expense. The buyer should make arrangements with the local vet of their choosing. The deposit is non-refundable unless the decision not to purchase the horse is due to a failed vet check. During the time that the horse is held with a deposit, it will stay in a box stall and be turned out individually for a few hours during the day unless other arrangements are discussed. If you decide to purchase the horse or pony, the deposit will go towards the purchase price.
Post Horse Purchase
After purchasing a horse or pony, 5 days of board are included if needed. If you need time beyond 5 days after purchase to arrange for transportation, board is $20 per day and is available for up to an additional 10 days. If you hire us to haul the horse, shipping fees are a $25 hook-up fee plus an additional $2.50 per loaded mile. Througout COVID-19 we have waived our $25 hook-up fee.
Private Leases
Private leases must be approved by the business owner, terms can be arranged for time different time frames. Summer private leases start at $1500. Winter lease options starting at $750.
Winter Lease
Some of our camp horses are available for a free winter lease to in-state residents at approved locations, out-of-state residents may also do a winter lease at a cost of $750 for the term (if you choose to buy, the $750 will go towards purchase price). For horses valued over $3500 a fee will be required to take the horse on winter lease. The camp horses start coming back in mid-August, lease term goes until the mid-May, option to purchase by November 30. If the horse is returned before the contract is up there will be a $500 early return fee. If your camp horse isn’t working out and you need to swap, the cost is $100 per swap. To be approved for a winter lease horse, we will need 3 non-family references who know how you care for your animals, a vet reference, farrier reference, boarding facility if applicable, and photos of where the animal will be staying. It is the lessee’s responsibility to care for our animal as if it was their own.
