It depends on the breed of horse you are looking at purchasing, and how old and its appearance.

But from minimum to maximum, horses can be free to a good home- aprox $800.00

And aprox $1000.00-$1,000,000.00

But, in the end, it all depends on the horse, their abilities in riding and potential, their appearance, age, background, and health.

It can very. My horse eats 100 of food and board is 175 a month. Plus 70 for shoes every 2 months and teath need done every year {200} shots get done 2 time a year{95} and wormer is only about 10.00 but you worm every 6-8 weeks
Depending on where you live it costs about $200-$300 a month to feed a full-sized horse. If he has special needs it could be more. Then there is boarding if you don't have room for him at you house, the vet, the farrier, tack, medicines and first aid products, grooming, ect. Horse are what I call a 'high-end' pet. They are expensive and time consuming, but they are worth every minute and every cent.

It would depend on the horse, but I would think that the price could be anywhere between under 1,000 to over 10,000. . .

Addition:

I would suggest adopting a horse from a horse rescue. At the rescue that I volunteer at, there is a beautiful OTTB mare who does eventing. Her adoption fee is $1200. If she was for sale, she would go for at least $7000. If you plan on adopting/buying a horse, be sure to observe this horse in multiple situations, as their behavior may vary. Also, be sure to lead and groom the horse before buying him/her. If you are going to ride this horse, tack up and ride the horse before buying. Be sure to bring your vet to observe your new horse before making any final decisions.

Remember that the horse costs only a fraction of its care!

The amount spent on a horse will vary depending on the type of work they do, the activities you wish to participate in, the amount and type of feed they eat, where and how you keep them, and any number of other factors.

Competitions horses in regular work, who are stabled, and fed a high protein diet, will cost considerably more for example than the pasture ornament who simply keeps another horse company and is kept on grass.
