This ad was on Craigs list this morning. Now you know how I feel about people selling horses on Craigs list, but this is a new one on me!
"I am looking for my dream horse. I am looking for a black gelding or stallion with white sock and a white blaze. I am willing to pay for the right horse but not an outragious price. Prefer young and does not have to be broke. If you think you might have what I am looking please feel free to email! "
This seems like a relatively intelligent person, minor spelling errors, mostly correct punctuation.
But REALLY?
Advertising for a horse ( stallion! WTF!) because of his COLOR!!!
That is what makes a perfect horse in this yahoo's teeny mind!
Either she, ( ya know it is a she don't ya?) is a youngster, or/and is confident in her ability to train ANY such Dream Horse' she finds, or she just don't care. My vote goes towards the latter.
I wonder if she knows that Breyer has a DreamHorse for just about anyone?
Hey! I wonder if this would work for men?
" Looking for my perfect man, must have brown hair and brown eyes."
Hmm...
This guy is a lot different than say...
This guy.....
or this guy.....
or this guy....
or this guy~
Of course beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but choosing a horse by color is like choosing a house because you like a house with shutters.
Unfortunately a lot of people I have tried to help buy a horse start out with the same request- and I paraphrase...
"I want a insert favorite color here."
I could go on, but I won't.
Good luck Little Miss I Want A Black Stallion!
You are going to need it.
