HN Classifieds: Something doesn’t add up
It’s solid 3rd Level, schooled through PSG. It jumps. It’s quiet. It has good ground manners. It’s a registered Oldenburg. So why is it $2,000, and why is it wearing a western saddle?
Thanks to Lauren Romanelli and Kim Burgess Carpenter for the Facebook share! Now, someone go buy this horse.

Just left a mg.. Not sure how far from me he is, but I’ll check him out!
Gosh, I was always under the impression you were supposed to lead with your strengths… I wonder if they know that walking in a circle does not a pirouette make
This is a group from Ky. They sell mostly mules, and some very poor horses for a whole lot of money. One of my students went to there location and she said it looked like a rescue lot ready for the slaughter house. All of their pictures are in the same spot, same position, with the same wagon wheel in the background. Only in Ky . This group has been pushing horses online for about 2 years now, and lots of them.I am so sorry for the animals.
I am sure this is a scam. If it’s too good to be true, then it probably is. NEVER buy a horse sight unseen from a stranger. Many people are losing money to scammers!
