I am looking for a horse in this area, something for a beginners, 8-14 years old, UTD on shots and not wanting to spend a lot of money if you know of any one that is wanting to get rid of one please let me know
Getting the horse is the cheap part of the deal.... ferrier, vet, feed, hay, maintaining fence etc are the expensive part. Here is a great rescue league that has wonderful horses for affordable prices. http://www.userl.org/AvailableHorses-NC.html
HORSE for FREE (Willow Springs) Reply to: sale-fx3ar-1088329125@craigslist.org [Errors when replying to ads?] Date: 2009-03-29, 9:36PM EDT I have a beautiful quarter horse that I need to give away. It breaks my heart, but I can't afford to keep him where he is pastured... A good place is so hard to find... Chic needs a good home, almost 25 years old, in really good shape, loves to ride, likes to go FAST, but can't where I have him. Needs good home and lots of LOVE and some attention... will follow around the person who gives him the love, like a puppy dog. He no longer is allowed to eat hay, but usually feeds 3 times a day... beautiful burgendy color... call 919-753-8304 or e-mail for more information.
25 years old?!?! You can't do much with that horse other than feed it. Check out some of the local auctions, I know there's one off of 50 Hwy at Elevation Road.
LOL... thought the same thing... shelf life on that Horse is waning... you'll have to worry about the disposal in the near future...
I just went to www.craigslist.com for the Raleigh area & typed "horse". This is the link. http://raleigh.craigslist.org/grd/1088329125.html I don't know anything about horses. I just thought I'd mention craigslist as a place to look because it seems like you can find almost anything there these days. New ads pop up regularly so if you don't find what you want initially, don't give up. Also, you can post a "wanted" ad on craigslist and will probably get lots of responses that way. I don't think the older horse free ad had a picture. However, these ads do: http://raleigh.craigslist.org/grd/1098722158.html http://raleigh.craigslist.org/grd/1098199415.html http://raleigh.craigslist.org/grd/1098098562.html http://raleigh.craigslist.org/grd/1097660122.html http://raleigh.craigslist.org/grd/1097649122.html http://raleigh.craigslist.org/grd/1097642375.html http://raleigh.craigslist.org/grd/1097627409.html http://raleigh.craigslist.org/grd/1097572107.html
