I prefer the pay as you go method for horse training.  
I find if I don't like the progress and/or maybe the trainer is not what I
expected I can terminate the training without loss of prepaid funds.

Subject: RE: [RC] Horse trainer payment

Another issue that no one has brought up about paying in advance, is the 
subject of horse abandonment by people who have gotten in over their head 
financially, realized life was easier without that particular horse, or for
whatever 
reason, didn't have the money or the inclination to pay when the time came.


Sure, a trainer can put a lien against the horse, keep it and then sell it
to 
recover the costs, but the longer they have to keep someone else's horse,
the 
less chance they will be able to recoup their expenses. 

The only time I sent a horse for training, I paid in advance gladly.  jeri
