I’ve come across a few very strange ads for horses for sale ads in the last week or so…just had to share a few with you :) .

Enjoy!!!

I have a hore that had his man parts off. He was to meen with them on. Heis beter now he don kick no more but he wont let me ride him. I guess he isnt broke. He has papers and says he was borned on the march 10 2009. He is a good one with his feet and will led around good. I bought him at auction and they rode him in the pen a little. But my friend says he not really broke. I got him for my kid but he s no good for kids. I will sell him with papers for $400 what I paid for the vet to fix him. Or trade for a pony or smaller horse my kid can ride. This one got a lot bigger since we got him. I dont know how to measure him like you suppose to do, but he’s shoulder is 64 in he was a lot littler last spring.

Don’t think I need to say too much more about that one!

Equestrian vaulting is becoming more and more popular these days, and it’s little wonder really. Vaulting combines horse riding with gymnastic activities, all done on a moving horse – some people would liken it to doing circus tricks on horses!

When you first start out vaulting, you commence training on a barrel – or simulated horse – and practice a lot of the moves on that first. Once you’ve become comfortable with that, you move onto a horse and complete the movements at the walk. Once you can perform them well at the walk, you move onto the canter.

Vaulting is excellent for your balance and can be a valuable part of the training Continue reading “The Best of British Equestrian Vaulting” »

Here’s a collection of funny horse riding falls I found on YouTube recently…no one got hurt in any of these falls! Enjoy!!!

This little girl was very keen to show her friend how she could canter her pony bareback…

…the only problem was, this 12 year old Welsh Mountain pony had a trick or 2 up it’s sleeve too :) .

In this one, the horse decides if I have to have a bath in this river…then so do you!

A very neat somersault off this pony…

If this person ever decides to pursue another career other than show jumping, I’m sure they’ll do very well at equestrian vaulting!

This is a great story about the heroic horse, Sergeant Reckless, and her involvement in the Korean War. This great little mare was purchased from a Korean racetrack by the US army and trained to help transport dangerous explosives…on her own!

Just saw this ad pop up on one of the horse classifieds sites that I spend a bit too much time on :) …no harm in window shopping is there?

Anyway, brought a smile to my face & I reckon it would definitely get people’s attention. Next time you’ve got a horse or pony for sale, it mightn’t hurt to try a slightly different tactic like these guys to help your ad stand out from the thousand or so others!
