[AmyMay]

She’d have been a nice sort in her younger years

Very sad. Poor mare. I hope someone can offer her a kind home.

Saw a tb for 150 earlier, granted had issue but still could be ridden. He was quite young.

DD is where I saw that 2yo welshie or cob already broken in and driving

No way? 150?

No BB - don't ask where.. don't do it..

 

[Somewhat Off The Way]

I have space to retire her, but can't justify spending that amount... makes you feel awful doesn't it, but you can't save them all

[toppedoff]

Poor old girl. My heart shatters into a million pieces when I see ads like this.

 

[shanti]

I see too many of these types of adverts. I understand that people's situations change but it is such a cop out doing this and so cruel. Why is it so hard for people to do the right thing by their horses?

Because they are heartless, money-grabbing creatures who have no moral compass. If i didn't have the money pit that is The Orange Loon, I'd be there, bidding them half.
She's just down the road, too.

You and me both.

 

[Frano]

But it costs to PTS , so some people want to avoid that cost.

 

[Sky’s-Legacy]

She's literally on my doorstep! If only I wasn't on maternity pay and having to be sensible I'd make them an offer on her.

 

[Widgeon]

There are some lovely looking Standardbreds on there....I like the bay filly in Barnard Castle. And the coloured two year old in the West Midlands. He looks a bit "upright", but the last SB I rode was built the same way and it never bothered him.

I am looking for a companion and she’s not too far from me, I have enquired

Well done you, I hope she's sound enough to be of use to you.

 

[Ratface]

My fingers are crossed as well!

Honestly if I won the euro lottery I would be out of control very quickly .
Adverts like this break my heart .

Everything crossed you can get her. She looks and sounds very similar to my girl who is the most perfect companion anyone could have. Much better legs than my girl though. She would look really nice in good condition.

Why always think its cruel to rehome an oldie? Personally Id rather keep them (have one as a field ornament as we speak) but if the horse is still perfectly healthy then I think its a real shame to not at least try to find a nice companion home for it. Plenty of people will take on older quiet ponies.
