I couldn't find another thread like this, so I'm putting it here, cause I just had to share. I found this ad an craigslist this morning, and it left me scratching my head.
6-7 year old 1/4 horse for sale,
new horseshoes just replaced, well fed and taken care of,
must sell, tame on a ametaur rider, full horse not neuterd
must sell asap give me an offer

Um ya 1/4 horse, well whats the other 3/4 cow? Tame on amature rider hm I though we humans rode the horses not the other way around. Full horse not neutered, well then once gelded what is it, 1/4 horse. Just had to comment, made me laugh when I started reading it.

Just plain disgusting. Note the filly's age, condition, extra tight girth, wormy belly and a toddler leading the three year old child. Note that they have purchased another horse, for their three year old child to rope off. Are the parents completely nuts? When was this 10 month old filly trained? I hate to think.

Poor baby!!! And the person posting the ad has horrible spelling and grammar (which, unfortunately, speaks volumes of them). That seriously makes me want to shake those people!!

There are some people who live across the main road from our barn that have a yearling TB that they ride. I was leaving the barn the other day and saw them cranking on the horse's mouth and forcing him to trot! Made me so mad!

i really want to call or text that number and ask them if they're crazy! Ugghefeojfoefjoewslfkdsjol the injustice is unbearable!!
do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That poor poor baby! I wish I could take her in and just turn her out to pasture and never get ridden again! That is absolutely ridiculous that a horse owner would even allow that! And to have a 3 year old round-pen? OMG! Are you f-ing kidding me? A 3 year old doesn't have a clue what they are doing! Someone's going to have a HUGE wakeup call when their child gets run over. Hopefully the horses AND children will get taken away!

Here's the convo:
How much are you asking for the poor little sorrel filly? (I know I went in with the tone but I WAS ANGRY)
"Poor where is she poor did u c her pic she not poor at all ha ha ha ; )"
How much are you asking?
"Do u have nuttin better wit ur time y dnt u go spend time wit ur family enjoy ur kids tell them u love them
(then) Hater quit hating"
I'm not "hating", I am trying to get more information on this filly you have for sale
"She not for sale there is not even an ad on craigslist whatcha wanna know?????? : )" (apparently horses are only sold on craigslist)
Hmm, that's weird. I was curious on your asking price, and if she's registered; however, if she isn't for sale the point is moot.
"Yep
(then) Got a bunch more yearlings in trainin let ya know when they ready"

......I cannot continue this conversation it just seems to get worse, they cannot suffice to commit the one atrocity but continue to do more... :(
the text's I sent are italicized and their response is in quotes, commentary is bold. I tried to stay as polite as possible...
 
#3,121 ·
Are they letting the 3 year old handle the sales too? OMG, how disrespectful and insane are these people?!?!?

"Got a bunch more yearlings in training" OMG, I can't even imagine what they are doing to them. They are probably running barrels and poles on them by now!

Looks like that pony is trained to rear. Not that it makes it any better, but at least the pony looks somewhat controlled in the rear and stable. Also, that kid looks like he's having a blast. My son gets almost that exact same look on his face when he's doing something stupid but that he considers fun. Not saying the rest of their ad is any good, or that even the situation with the child is a good one, but yeah.

3 yr old mustang stud colt FREE

This horse was born on our property we just don't have the time or desire to train him. He has never been handled at all so he isn't halter broke or anything. Once we have someone serious we will get him in a round pen for loading. Serious inquiries only!



Wow :(
LOL, I can't really complain much about this ad. I paid $125 for a horse in a similar situation about 7 years ago, except he hadn't been born on their property, he had been adopted by them.

Turned out to be one of the best horses I've ever had though.

********PALO. PAINT FILLY!!!!

Okay, let me get this straight...

This filly is 13-months-old and has already been saddled five or so times? And am I the only one who gets the feeling these people are saying that this poor little filly will be easy to break sooner rather than later (implying that they would expect someone to break her in the next few months)? Why are people putting saddles on yearlings in the first place?! Especially underweight yearlings?!

Seems like in spring dumbasses come out of the woodwork to display their complete lack of intelligence and to brag about how cruel they are to horses and about how many ways they can endanger their offspring that they hope will grow up to be dumber than they are.

I love to quote George Carlin a lot and this would be another time to do so:
"Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!”
 
#3,136 ·
I don't even know where to begin with this. Not for sale but on facebook as something they are proud of.

My commanche showing out with his first saddling today, 10 mins later, a one hour first pony ride with my 7 year old niece! He's going to be amazing!! Thought I'd share his picture!! He's a two year old stud!! — with My commanche.

I am confused by this ad. I wasn't aware the BLM adopted out studs (thought they had to be gelded before they were adopted?). Also, just because he's had one colt means he's "proven"? No, all that has "proven" is that he has balls and knows how to mount a mare. And it could just be me, but I'm not sure that horse is over 17hh. Unless the horse in the next stall over is 18hh+ (since s/he looks bigger than the stud for sale).

BLM MUSTANG STUD
Wow, stupid people are stupid. I don't know if the BLM has changed their policy, but they were adopting out studs 8 years ago when Dobe was adopted because when I got him as a 3 year old, he was still a stud. That being said, it is entirely possible that they have changed their policies since then and geld before adoption.

As for the rest of the ad...WhyTF would you want to keep a mustang as a stud??? There are thousands standing in holding pens, looking for homes, but stupid people insist on keeping their adopted ones studs and creating more worthless horses that there are no homes for:evil:.

'Stangs from a few HMAs can get closer to 17 hands, but they aren't exactly common. Most common size is 14-15 hands. Judging by the 5" fence that is right beside him, I would say he's closer to 14.2.
