[RC] how much should I pay the trainer (who asked me to decide)? - alexis_mills
I'm supposed to come up with a number I'm
comfortable with, and I have no idea what's fair since I've never done this
before. Here's the situation:
Samurai wouldn't get into a friend's trailer a few
weeks ago, so I sent him to a "cowboy" she recommended whose wife also did some
Parelli training with him.
Their regular rate to start a colt is $800/mo., but
they said they'd charge less to deal w/ a single problem. After two weeks, Sami
is loading easily in a stock trailer, and they're bringing him to me tomorrow,
driving 80 miles (160 RT) to deliver him. I already paid $200 (my usual monthly
board).
So... what would be fair?
Thanks in advance for your advice.
