FreeArabMare H&H ads

[FairyLights]

Noticed a nice looking Arabian mare free to good home in this weeks magazine adverts. No connection with me whatsoever . Just thought I'd highlight in case any arab lovers out there are looking.

 

[Elsiecat]

Why don't I have more land/less horses?

 

[KVH]

I wish I hadn't seen this!

 

[Parachute]

Uh Oh

 

[thatsmygirl]

It's a Arab, yuck unless it hasn't got a horrid shaped nose than it will be fine.

Unkind.

Mmmm agree faracat @unkind as whilst i would not choose arab they are a beautiful animal. mmmmmm there again having been a bigger hunter tyoe for 30 years i now have the most beautiful sec D and i totally love the breed now lol

 

[Meowy Catkin]

I have no issue with people not liking them aesthetically, but to say 'yuck' is rude.


Sorry, rant over. I hope that the mare finds a lovely home.

ETA. She looks sweet - a bit lean.

I wish I was richer.

How come she's free then? I haven't seen many of the funny shaped head types in the UK, but then I love Arabs anyway

 

[Meowy Catkin]

The ad doesn't say. It does say breeding or paddock friend, so I guess she's not ridable.

 

[Pale Rider]

I expect there is a nice horse there, I wonder whats up.

What an unpleasant thing to say; and how strange not to see and appreciate the beauty of the Arab horse. Whilst not to everyones taste as a riding horse, its contribution to many breeds is valued?

Some head shapes can be a little extreme, but I've seen allot worse noses on quite a number of people

I wonder what type if horse you have ?
People tend to forget Arabs where bred into other horse breeds to make them better so go on divulge .

And you ride......?

 

[slumdog]

I always wanted a beautiful black Arab stallion when I was a kid (I'm sure there was a book about one that was shipwrecked or something?) needless to say I have a bay tb and a grey sports horse lol! I love Arabs!

 

[mandwhy]

I think you are thinking of 'the black stallion' there Slumdog its a film too I found it on netflix recently much to my delight!

 

[slumdog]

Yes, that's it! Ooh I have Netflix I'll have to have a look, I loved that book lol

 

[martlin]

No such thing as a free lunch, no such thing as a free horse either...

 

[Tinypony]

Oh dear, she's the same age as my Arabs, and not very far away. I can't get another though.

I always find it really wierd when people have a dislike for a particular breed of horse. But I suppose they aren't really horse lovers, only lovers of specific types of horse. I love them all, big, little, chunky, slender, and of course the long-ears as well. )

I was given a brilliant free pony by the way, she's an absolute gem and always has been from the day I got her.

 

[Tiffany Blue]

Hope she gets a decent home. Wonder why it does not mention riding/what the story is. Can't go wrong with Arabs, turn their hoof to anything

 

[tallyho!]

Oh, already have two chestnut mares... three's a crowd...

 

[Orchardbeck]

Oh no, chestnut Arab mare, my favourite kind! Already have one though who I can't ride at the min so think OH would have a fit if I picked up another, particularly with a baby in the way in the next couple of months!

 

[Meowy Catkin]

Happy update.

This was posted on AL.

Just to let you know that she is in her new home and happily settled with other Arabs as friends, she's in good condition and she has a new home for life x

 

[ameeyal]

Happy news, dont you just love how arab people pull together.

 

[Meowy Catkin]

Yes, it's really lovely.

Sorry, but the BIB made me smile!
