I can call her after work and ask her if she is looking yet. (I know eventually she was going to look for two new horses, one lesson horse and another off the track horse for herself.)


I am sorry that you are having to do this.
Buffymommy, I'm in Chambersburg, Pa which is south central, route 81 runs right past the town. Cal is a gentle horse, hasn't been ridden since my wife left last August so he'd need a slight amount of work. When we first rescued him, as soon as he got his weight back, he was used at the rescue center to give kids lessons so he's ideal for any level. I have a home if I can't sell him but really need some money!

I will ask her. I will tell her that you need some money for him that it isn't just looking for a good home. She is a trainer so she would be able to get him back into shape to be a lesson horse. I just don't know if she is ready for the lesson horse yet. She wants to semi retire her 28 year old ex-racer/show horse and only use him like once or twice a week.

Do you know if he has ever jumped crossrails or little jumps?

Somerfrost,
I just got back from the farm and wanted to let you know that I put the word out for anyone that comes along and is interested.
I've been doing a bit of riding lately, mostly on the pony horse for the training of my 2yo filly, Shot o' Bourbon. Knock on wood...all is going fine in that department.
I'll pm you if someone this way (Catskills in NY) shows an interest.

Thanks DTS...I hate to part with him but eating has become an issue with almost no money!
