Which we believe is often more important than papers.

I'd like to make a few comments about buying horses.
WHAT FACTORS INTO THE PRICE OF A HORSE?
I have purchased more than my share of horses in the past, present and future.
Unless you know what to look for, you can make a costly mistake when buying a horse.
Even those with experience can make mistakes now and then.
I get phone calls and emails frequently from nice folks who want to
purchase a horse for their family, but a few callers have unreasonable expectations.
Typically their call goes like this:
* "I'm looking for a *dead broke *family type *trail horse for me and my children.
* The horse must be *gentle for *any age rider and *be able to *teach me to ride.
* I want a *big *pretty *gelding, *young, *between 3 & 9 years old,
* that stands *perfectly still for *everything you can *throw at him *without a flinch.
* He must be *SPOOK-PROOF *TRAFFIC SAFE *BOMB-PROOF and *KID SAFE.
* He must do *playdays, *parades, *rodeos and *go effortless into a walk, trot, & lope.
* None of us have much *horse riding experience, *so he'll have to *tolerate beginners.
* And the way he *LOOKS is *far more *important than ALL THE ABOVE,
* but I don't want to *spend any more than *$1,000."
The caller usually goes on to say:
"I bought a horse (or 2) last month (last year) but now, no one can ride him (or her).
He's too much horse for us, so I'd like to trade your horse for mine."
What is this caller's problem?
They bought a "Bargain Horse" at a "Bargain Price."
But now, the horse is proving to be unsafe, untrained, or simply mismatched.
They want a cheap horse, yet trained to do 50 different things, all perfectly, for a novice.
My answer to them is... I'd like to help you out, BUT, you want to buy (or trade for)
a pretty good horse (mine) for the price of an untrained (or un-tamed) horse.
(And who doesn't???)
But it is UNREALISTIC
* If anyone reading this has a horse to sell for $1,000 just like the one* described above, please contact me and I will buy it !
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Our Horses are gentle & love our companionship as much as we love them.
They'll become a treasured family member if you treat them with loving kindness.
A horse is a living, feeling individual, not a machine.
I've invested months or years into their gentling and training.
Horse upkeep today is very, very expensive.
I've made sure our horses lack for nothing.
And don't let my prices scare you. I'm very NEGOTIABLE.
Wave some cash at me. You may be taking a horse home.
The value of a "Bargain Horse" is in the eye of the beholder.
But if the deal sounds too good to be true, maybe it is.
Remember:
Sometimes what seemed like a bargain at first,
can cost alot more in the long run.
Please visit the other ranches first.
Then come out and see for yourself what a gentle, friendly horse is really like.
