Well, there's this horse at my barn that was for sale and he was recently sold. His new owners are coming to get him tomorrow, and they're bringing him to a barn with NO turnout. I just don't think that's fair to this wonderful horse. He NEEDS to be outside, like all horses, he gets tons of energy from standing in a stall all day. He doesn't deserve to be shut in a stall all day, he's really one of the sweetest horses I've ever met. Maybe I just got attached to him, I dunno, but no horse deserves to be in a stall 24/7, all year round. I don't know the people who bought him, maybe they're good people, but I feel bad for the poor horse. I actually didn't know I was so attached to him until I heard he was leaving. Hah, I'm actually hoping he won't load into the trailer tomorrow. I'm too selfish, but he CAN'T stay in a stall all day! And the barn he is going to, from what I've heard, is horribly dirty, and the stalls aren't cleaned too often.  Can anyone relate? |

Cant you talk to the owners of the horse(the old owners)and tell tehm what you know about the barn?I dont think its healthy to keep a horse inside all day all year.Maybe if they knew the conditions they would rethink selling,if they havent sold him yet

thats not right!!! a horse need to be turned out for not only its enjoyment but its health as well... a horse can become very ill if its not let out!

Nope, I guess it's too late to do anything, he left earlier today . Hopefully (not to sound mean) he'll have so much energy when they ride him that he won't behave, so they'll sell him to a better home. It happens a lot, and I feel pretty bad, but the most I can do is just make the horses at the barn right now as happy as they can be. |
