Best of Craigslist: ‘Arabian Stud Horse’
Sorry, but encouraging your dogs to chase your horse around the paddock so you can take action photos is NOT an effective sales strategy.
Many thanks to Rachel M. for forwarding us these first two ads!
Arabian stud horse, three years old. Halter broke, has been saddled and ridden. Great disposition, very calm. Completely black, no white anywhere. Lifts for farrier, loads and trailers well. Has had some pro training. 15 hands, will make 16 hands. Very athletic horse. No texts or emails, phone calls only.
