just got an email from someone who has a Belgian gelding they are looking to rehome for $500,
the email said and I quote

'This big guy needs a home! He can drive single or double, been there done everything - taught my boyfriend how to drive a team. This guy isn't used anymore and needs a new job! UTD on everything and in good health.'

I don't know the person but have emailed for more info like age, height, physical health, feet condition, trailering personality etc. No idea what the scoop is on the 'partner' if he was part of a team. There are a couple pics as well as a name and number in the 905 area code.

if anybody is interested, post here or email me offline and I'll pass on the info, we're not in a position to take him on right now (unless somebody is looking to take on 1 or 2 of mine LOL)

You read my mind Gruff:) Not sure about the age though...the young girl on EMG recently lost her draft after a long struggle to save her hence the wanting under 16. But the price is right and 20 is not old IMHO. I also e-mailed Jana (Precious Hope) as she knows of a 10 year old broke to saddle that is in need of a home.

GP needs some fencing and a run-in ;)
