Horse club

[CJLR]

We looked into the BLM horses awhile back. They have a web site that is pretty easy to navigate through. I think it is awesome that you would consider that. Do you have a trainer or know of a good one? The horses can sell for as little as $125. or so i think. It is on a bidding system. They have them in pens that you can view and then bid. They also have requirements, like land, barn?? stuff. If you have a good trainer this would be a great way to go. They need homes and the $$ goes to keeping this program/ them alive. Also look up mustang challenge. It will give you an idea of what is happening and what to prepare yourself for.
For us- we are in the middle of the pacific and flying over to look and bid then ship etc... was too much. Maybe another time. Some BEAUTIFUL horses

ok unfortunately there is no good trainers around me and the BLM horses are to far away I am located in north Carolina so we would have to fly and then have the horse shipped .
there is a killpin in ashville nc where a rescue post horsesfor sale in Hope's that someone will take them in I see way too many Mustang's end up there so maybe I could adopt one of those instead although I would love to adopt a Mustang

Oh, my bad. I apparently got confused I know nothing about those, we don't have here but if we did... I'd for sure go check it out. Absolutely- great idea!!! Mater of fact I am going to look online to see if I can find some info. Keep us posted if you decide to go that route and what you find. Maybe share some photos.

I think it goes like intro you and your horse (if have) @Butterscotchbitesfinger started this thread and lives across the pond in Australia. Cool yes?
PS. I loooove photos of anything pretty much... but horses if you got are the best.

I've been stalking the recent stories on this thread but not posting woops

I think rescuing a horse would be awesome; I hope you can find the right one @CJLR! My trainer has rescued retired Amish horses in the past, and I think rescuing would be the way I'd go if I were to get my own horse. A lesson horse I used to ride a lot used to be an Amish carthorse; she was the sweetest girl ever but sadly passed of colic the other week.
