Baby Poop Green Saddle tack

Baby poop green barrel saddle with matching tack! Complete with ostrich print and laced pommel and cantle. This saddle was going for $349! I originally thought this was a kids saddle until I saw it had a 17" seat! Some poor schlum is going to me made fun of A LOT!

#2 Im at a loss for words!
The Ugly Bridle
The Ugly Bridle

First let me state the fact that I have no problem with using rhinestones on bridles. But this thing is just ugly!!!! Silver AND Gold concho's with red white and blue rhinestones! Im pretty sure my horses would refuse this bridle and threaten to launch me to the other side of the arena if I tried to put this on them. This bridle is for sale and going for a whopping $60.

Dumb Horse People Of The Week!

Here is a great example if dumb and ignorant horse people! I am a big supporter of horse rescue groups and I think it is absolutely wonderful thing they do. I have rescued a few horses myself and know how much hard work and effort has to be put into it.

But this woman is ridiculous! Not only do we have a 20 yr. old mustang, this horse is the dominant mare and also requires an experienced rider. So let put our 2 year old in front of her legs while snapping pictures!

Koby is a 20 year old Mustang who is in training with us. When completed she will make a good 4-H, trail, or companion horse. She is healthy and sound with great hooves. She is an easy keeper and stays fat on hay only. She is the dominant mare of the group and needs a confident horseperson to work with. Her adoption fee is $250.
Koby is up-to-date with routine shots.
