Looking to buy a quarter horse

Hi, I'm new here and I am looking for sorrel or bay AQHA mare in the Dallas Texas area. My Father-in-law wants to buy it as a late Christmas present for my husband and me. It can be broke or greenbroke since I've broke horses all my life. Age from 2 to 6 years is preferred. Most important is that I need one that is 14 to 14.2 hands. We have one that is 15.2 hands, but I have to ride her with a saddle because I'm just a bit too short to jump on her bareback. I really hate riding with a saddle. My husband is a newbie so he prefers riding with a saddle, so he's got it made. She'll be spoiled rotten--we have a great 12 acre place just out of Ennis with lots of coastal burmuda and winter grass, 2 barns and a pond.

Hope someone can help me.
Thanks,
Janada Patton

Topic moved by Skippy! To Horse Classifieds
Reason: Since you are looking to buy a horse, i'll move this from the introductions forum to here for ya! Welcome to the Horse Forum!

We are in Georgia but could haul if we can find something that works for you. Any particular color? Age ? Mare or gelding? Price range?

Oops! Just price range. Guess I was a little distracted

Hi Skippy,

Thanks for moving that for me. I'm a bit limited on how much pc time I have right now--no cable or DSL where I moved (I'm at work). But it's worth it cause I have 2 beautiful horses--so far. But I still am looking for 2 more. I always wanted a horse "herd" but Dad had so many cows he'd only let me have one at a time.

Anyway, back to work. And thanks again.
Jan

Howdy Horsebiz,

Thanks for the reply but, yeah, looks like we are a bit far from each other. I'm having a time just finding horses on the south side of Dallas! I live an hour and half south of there and hauling a horse through downtown Dallas is a nightmare.

TTYL,
Gunchick
