100% this!We’ve sold a lot of horses over the years. Here’s something I experience every week. (No, nothing happened today to make me share this, just something I think about frequently and thought it might help someone shopping.)![]()

Almost every day I receive inquiries from people looking for a horse for sale. They say, “I want a horse who is X years old who is X tall, X gender, X color, X breed. “ Only a handful of times has anyone ever called and said, “I need a horse who will help me with _____ or who wants to ____ or who can give me confidence in _____ “ ![]()

Because after all, who cares if the horse is super fancy and amazing if you can’t ride it? Who cares if it scores X on the flat if you’re terrified to get on it? Or if it’s exactly 6yo 16.2h like you wanted but won’t jump the amateur owner out of a miss when they need help? ![]()

Just my two cents. 😉 ![]()

IE I bought this great horse sight unseen from a friend last year. My groom said, “oh how exciting! How big is he?” Our now famous joke is that I said, “No clue. Didn’t ask. If he’s a nice horse, who cares?!” 😂 And you know what? He’s incredible. ![]()

Focus less on the parameters. Focus more on what you need in a PARTNERSHIP. Happy shopping!![]()

This is a very good point and we have found several horses that don’t have typical reasons to have ulcers, have them just the same. It’s also very important to scope even if your pretty sure your horse could have them. The medication you use can vary depending on the location of the ulcers and they all don’t work the same.
Great visual and important to know especially for our insulin resistant horses.Not a joke...![]()

Have you ever wondered why you can have a 15 acre field and part of it is chewed down to nubs and the other part has grass a hand high, But your horse is constantly grazing in the chewed down part?![]()
![]()
Grass 6 inches and taller has less sugars than grass under 6 inches.![]()
![]()
For every inch drop below 6 inches, the fructan (sugar) content rises.![]()
![]()
Grass under 6 inches is stressed like it's a Monday morning with a project deadline. It uses sugar to repair itself. ![]()

Stop mowing your fields short.![]()
![]()
Stop grazing your chubbys on chewed down grass. (this is why grazing muzzles are so touted...they keep the horse from being able to get much short grass)![]()

(We aren't saying let your fields be 3 feet tall, by the way. The optimal thing to do is keep them 6-8 inches tall and graze them in small areas there)
Keep this in mind for any purchases of Adequan you may make from today through Oct 31st! We can email your receipt if you like, just let us know.

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.
