Trained it for two years. It was not successful, and his girl wanted him trained huntseat instead of saddleseat. Her parents said, ride the horse, or we'll give it away. They gave the horse away, and he lickily found his way to us instead of a sale. He was a nurvous stall baby who couldn't go downhill and had no social skills at all. Turns out to be a superb trail horse and a great hunter/dressage prospect, with NO HINT OF A BIG HIGH TROT AT ALL! He has found a forever home with me, that's for sure. If I have to live off ramen to pay for his board while I live in a car, I'll do it for him. He deserves it.sterlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09578221792680169058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6666513011419975671.post-85577869268398860942008-10-31T12:18:00.000-07:002008-10-31T12:18:00.000-07:00Yeah exactly, they won't get jack for the horse wi...Yeah exactly, they won't get jack for the horse with the market being like this.

I had to see what your profile pic was and clicked on your blog.<BR/><BR/>I once left a scathing note on an ad for a dog that we, the public, were going to send to the pound if no one took it. You see, his owners were moving to a place that didn't allow pets and whoops, we forgot we had a dog when we signed the rental agreement. I must have stood there for 10 minutes writing them a mouthful. People like that go under the heading PIG FUCKER!noseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05920525517817338329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6666513011419975671.post-54612779966621215372008-10-30T21:19:00.000-07:002008-10-30T21:19:00.000-07:00yup you got me my name is Shaina, and yes I'm dyin...yup you got me my name is Shaina, and yes I'm dying to be a Bad-as *snort* you are not a bright person if you can't even make fun of me properly.

A TROLL! but she is entertaining us.. ya gotta give her that. I know she's made me laugh with her petty & ridiculous attempts at humor and comebacks. I’m beginning to wonder if she sees herself in any of these pictures.. maybe she’s the one training her horse to rear, or the one who wants $15,000 for her in utero foal... I know she’s not the one in the Perfect Horse, or the wife of the Horse Husband... (that’s me) Maybe she’s that wonderful toe-headed 8yo’s MOTHER!!!

I feel we have an obligation to give back to the horses who have been our friends as much as they have given to us, provided the ability is there. If the owner is no longer able, for whatever reason, I still think that it's the owner's responsibilty to make sure the next owner can provide the same or better care than you were able to.2toads2luvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13735592319606699873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6666513011419975671.post-28442832713401849642008-10-30T12:38:00.000-07:002008-10-30T12:38:00.000-07:00You hit the nail on the head 2toads!! :):):):):)You hit the nail on the head 2toads!! :):):):):)Trainer Xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13430344352484574684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6666513011419975671.post-59517463426527830602008-10-30T12:35:00.000-07:002008-10-30T12:35:00.000-07:00Like these??http://wenatchee.craigslist.org/grd/89...Like these??<BR/><BR/>http://wenatchee.craigslist.org/grd/895664829.html<BR/><BR/>http://wenatchee.craigslist.org/grd/895943202.html<BR/><BR/>http://wenatchee.craigslist.org/grd/895535956.html<BR/><BR/>On a side note, if I was looking for a horse, I'd be on the road right now for this one...<BR/><BR/>http://wenatchee.craigslist.org/grd/895535956.html<BR/><BR/>Not the prettiest head (from the looks of the picture) but she sure looks nice otherwise!2toads2luvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13735592319606699873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6666513011419975671.post-85371524107991837182008-10-30T12:29:00.000-07:002008-10-30T12:29:00.000-07:00Yeah and I totally agree with you on that!

I know of some people who have kept the good ol' boy who carried the kids through shows, fairs, parades, AFTER being dad's cow horse, ect. After the horses were done "being useful", their care really fell to the wayside. They were fed, had shelter, water, mostly regular worming and hoof care, but were no longer treated as the best buddy they used to be.<BR/><BR/>Now, if posting like the second craigslist places this ol kid with someone who would love to have a horse to look at, brush, and treat like a pet, then I think that's great. However, 'dumping' a horse after his supposed useful life is done is bullshit. There's no loyalty or respect in that.<BR/><BR/>I guess this also comes from the fact that I knew an older lady how had ridden all her life, but was way past that point in her life, husband had died, ect. She had about 3 horses that recieved the best care, and it just warmed her heart and took her back to her younger days to see her three "kids" fat, happy, and content in her care.<BR/><BR/>But someone looking to unburden themselves to just anyone of a horse that has been a loyal companion? Just f*ing WRONG.2toads2luvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13735592319606699873noreply@blogger.com
