The stables will only unlock in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Red Dead Redemption 2 after Arthur goes hunting with Hosea during Exit Pursued by a Bruised Ego. During this mission, Hosea tells Arthur they're going to visit a stable to sell a Shire horse to buy a new one.
If you've obtained a temporary horse that you prefer over the default Tennessee Walker that's marked as "Arthur's Horse," it can be difficult to prevent your temporary horse from despawning during this mission. Here's the best way to keep your temporary horse.

Make It Your Main Horse
Although not always, temporary horses can despawn during this mission, even if hitched at camp. So, if you've kept an O'Driscoll's horse or Benedict Allbright's Hungarian Half-bred, it will most likely despawn if the game considers it Arthur's temporary horse.
There will be casualties during this process. Unfortunately, RDR2 doesn't allow the player to remove a horse's saddle unless it dies. So, here is what you need to do:
- Kill the Tennessee Walker
- Remove its saddle
- Place the saddle on the horse you want to keep
After following these steps, it should now say "Arthur's Horse" in the map's legend instead of "Temporary Horse."
Speak To Hosea And Complete The Mission
You can speak to Hosea and proceed with Exit Pursued by a Bruised Ego. During the mission, the horse shouldn't appear on your minimap. Its icon will disappear once Hosea makes you remove its saddle so you can place it on the Shire. Follow Hosea and complete the mission.
Get Your Horse Back
Once you've finished the mission, go back to camp. You'll notice that your former main horse won't be at Horseshoe Overlook.
If, instead, you've tried to do this by hitching your temporary horse at camp, it may or may not be there. After testing this several times with different variables (a horse with a saddle, a horse with no saddle, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:a horse with level 2 friendship, hitched, and not hitched) it is unknown whꦛy sometimes the temporary horse will despawn from 💦camp.
In order to get ba𓃲ck your trusty steed, you neꦦed to do as follows:
- Go back to Valentine
- Head to the stable
- Check the "Manage Owned Horses" menu
Here you will find your two horses, the one you bought earlier and your initial horse, the one you wanted to keep. At the stable, players can change a horse's name and customize its looks and accessories.
