UPDATE... The chestnut gelding from Wendy has a new home. Also the little race horse filly from Stockton has been saved. Thank you everybody!
Thursday, July 2nd... When a big storm hits, our friend Wendy brings us still warm oatmeal raisin cookies. So good I have to hide them from Pony Boy. A nicer young lady you will never meet. Each Thanksgiving and Christmas Wendy helps prepare food for those less fortunate. Wendy gives free horse back riding lessons to children without money.
The lousy economy has clobbered many. Wendy has a 16 year old chestnut gelding who needs a new home. The gelding comes with a big ankle, from an old race track injury. He is gentle, and loves kids. A companion home would be best.
Brenda lives not far away, and she has a 4 year old gray thoroughbred filly who also needs a new home. The filly is beautiful, and has not had much training.
Kylie is a student at UC Davis. Her story would take 6 hours and 4 pots of Peets to share. There is a race horse gelding who came to UC Davis, but now he is with Kylie. The gelding is 5, dark bay, with minor injuries.
A family in the Davis area, with an older thoroughbred gelding who can not be ridden.
A family in Vacaville, with a very skinny thoroughbred gelding. Not sure how much training he has had. But you can easily tell what a hunk this guy will be after a few weeks of regular meals.
All of the above horses are free. I do the screening, and my cell is 530-383-2120.
At the feed lot in Wilton, 4 thoroughbred geldings, all young, none with a racing tattoo. The 4 geldings came from the same family farm and are good with people and other animals.
At the feed lot in Pittsburgh, several older thoroughbred mares, most with racing tattoos. Two of the mares gave birth this spring, but we have no clue where their foals are.
From horse killer Wade Giles, a young thoroughbred filly who was too slow for racing. Her only race at Stockton, and she was left far behind.
Feed lot horses in Wilton, Pittsburgh, and from horse killer Wade Giles are priced by the pound. There is a shipping charge. Give me a call if you are interested.
Congratulations Nicole, also a student at UC Davis. Nicole is the new owner of a gelding we called Denver. Nicole has changed his name to Parker.
It is Thursday, with delicious ice cold orange juice made by Simply Orange. Flies starting their engines. Later we say goodbye to Cut, on his way to Oregon. We say goodbye to Dallas, on his way to green grass with a foster family. Enjoy your triple cheese enchillada with sour cream and avocado Thursday, and be sure to hug your horses. Have fun Georgia & Jenny, on their way for a long weekend of camping and trail rides.
