No clue how much it costs but it can be done.
It was done to Trigger.

---

why would you want to stuff a horse, stuffing animals is gross I think.

---

Can we say Trigger?

Web site below. I would have no way of knowing how much?

---

It would be in the 10's of thousand of dollars, but yes it can.

Everyone already told the trigger story.

Yeah, I couldn't recall the horse's name at first, DidoDee. beat me to it.

Roy Rogers was an old-timey movie cowboy, his horse Trigger was famous too, so Roy had Trigger stuffed when the horse died.

My personal opinion is that it's creepy to stuff your dead pet, I don't care if it's a hamster, dog, cat, or horse.

I don't see why not but it would use an awful lot of sawdust. Why do you want to stuff the horse anyway, it seems like a pointless waste of money since you can't ride it stuffed.

I seem to remember Trigger was stuffed, but that was showbiz!!

I am sure if you check your yellow pages under taxidermy and make some calls you will find a place tht will do it. I got my Green Amazon Parrot stuffed and my Parakeet and it cost $382.00 for both. A horse may run you about $1,800.- $2,500. rough estimate.

Most horses (Roy Rogers' horse "Trigger" is stuffed and on display in his mueseum in Apple Valley, California) are taxidermied if they are for scientific or monumented displayed. Don't hear about it much for those who just had the horse as a "back yard pet" compared to a horse who is known World Wide and has high price value.

If a person can find a taxidermist who is willing to do it, then yes it can be done. The price depends on the taxidermist, how large the horse is and value of displacement. It ranges into the thousands. Estimated a few grand starting out. You have to locate a taximdermist to clarify their cost.

VERY GROSS - but yeah, they stuffed Phar Lap, ROFLMAO.you gotta be joking though! Who would want to stuff their horse!

---

if you have to ask,you cant afford it

---

you can stuff a horse, we used to have one in the museum i lived in. but make sure you find a good taxidermist because the one we had looked awfully unreal. and i would imagine it would be very expensive.

---

if its that expensive maybe you could just do his head, so you could hang it on a mantle. a friend of mine used to keep all the tails from his horses and hang them on the wall. it was kind of creapy, but to each his own.

---

yes, you can but as everyone else said it would be extremely expensive i don't know the exact cost but you can go to your local taxidermist and find out. what exactly would you do with ur hourse if they stuffed it? maybe to cut the cost you could just do the head, like a deer. or if you look online they have places that you can send ashes too or hair from your horse and they'll make things for you out of them.
