Hudson Valley Listing Has ‘Free to a Good Home’ Horse

There are many things that you can find on Craigslist. Some things that you have to pay for, others you can get at no cost.

One item that I came across this morning, was a horse. Yes, I was surprised to see a horse listed on Craigslist. So, then I asked a few horse owners about getting a horse this way. Turns out it is more common than you think for people to give horses away to a 'good home'. The cost of keeping a horse can reach large numbers financially and it is also a large investment time wise.

Here is what this one person is looking for their horse:

‎FREE companion horse
This mare has not been ridden in two years. Presently has a buck in her. About 15.1h, 8 years old. Turns out with others. Pleasant to work around. Quality enough to be a broodmare ..No auction/slaughter contract. Staatsburg, ny 12580

If you were thinking about getting a horse, what questions would you ask this owner?
