I thought I'd post here the ad I put on Craigslist. I'm hoping to find someone who has some time to work with my mare Pippin. She really needs a playmate and I'm just way too busy! So if you know anyone who might be interested, please forward my message on to them. Thanks!
"Are you an experienced horseperson who wants to spend time with a horse but you don’t have room in the budget for your own? I have a 6 year old rescued mare who is looking for someone to spend time with her doing ground work and grooming. She needs someone with experience who isn’t intimidated by a sweet but very alpha mare. We believe that she can’t be ridden, due to a spine injury acquired before she was rescued. I’m not trying to find someone to turn her in to a saddle horse, but I’d like her to have “a job” and more attention. With my long work days she just doesn’t get the attention she would love and deserves. You could spend as much time with her as you like, though I’d prefer a commitment of at least twice a week. She is boarded at a lovely small ranch in Sebastopol with a beautiful round pen, arena, and grooming areas. She already has about 6 months of full-time training with a natural horsemanship trainer. She has issues with her rump and back feet but does better when she’s consistently worked with. If this sounds interesting to you, please send me an email with information about your experience and what you’re looking for: hb94952@comcast.net . "
