Sad state of affairs today

Today will be a 'worst' of blog. 


All three horses today are in dire - in one case very desperate - need of upgrading and re-homing.

These are our adults writing this. Its a 27 year old horse that way deserves to be treated better than I guarantee this person has treated her.

Clydesdale for sale. she's 16 hands. Vet said she's about 4 or 5 years old. She's broke. Not shoed. Not trailor broke. She was recently dewormed. Good with kids. She's real smart. She's fast & strong and rides like a dream. She has a thick brown winter coat from all the snow. I'm selling her due to hard times (economy). Price is FIRM for she's worth ALOT more.

*HEADDESK* Ok, at least... at least this one is broke. Supposedly. She's still not being taken care of decently and looks to be underweight and wormy, not to mention  but maybe someone with an eye for drafts will snatch her up - hopefully for a lot less than the $5000 being asked for her. Because, no, she's NOT worth that much. 


And finally... saving the "best" for last...

I sincerely wish that at this time I had 1 million readers in all parts of the country so someone would see that arabian gelding and take him out of his misery, and get him looking like the superstar he so desperately needs to become. 


I don't think I even need to comment on that poor geldings condition. Any person with eyes that had a heart can see how miserable he is. 


I thought I was against licencing for horse ownership, yet the more I see this level of  'care', it makes me think more and more that maybe a licence for ownership wouldn't be such a bad idea. 


On a personal note, its been very rainy and cold the last few days, and been good weather to hole up and do things like read, and catch up on tv episodes on hulu.com, as well as get totally engrossed in looking at these horrible ads. Time to go find something cheery. Night.

  2. I, too, search Craigslist in New England for the ones who need homes... I forward them on to this web site for more exposure. It has helped many horses that are in need of a good, reliable home with great care... Here is the link... http://missyshopeerr.freehostia.com/ I'm sure she would post ones you find, also! Keep up the great work!
