Hey dog community…. All of this. We have got to stop shaming people for doing the right thing for their family

Yes! I love this so much. Sometimes there is a better fit for the horse in another home.

They act like you’re sending him to a slaughter house or something 🤦🏻‍♀️🙄. You will find him a wonderful home if you decide this is the right step for you guys!

Yep. I had a mustang what broke my confidence every time I got on her. I worked with a trainer and got to a better point, but then I got pregnant and I didn’t think I could continue her training safely. So I sold her, I didn’t want to but I just wasn’t her forever home and that’s okay!!

He’s a cool horse. He might make a great horse for you someday, or he might make someone else a great horse instead. There’s not reason to force an awkward fit if you’re not interested anymore

Honestly I agree. I have a young horse who has been through a LOT of homes. He just needed the right person and now he has a forever home with me. He was deemed “Dangerous”. I haven’t had issues tho.

Life is too short to keep horses you don’t click with. If my blue roan and I don’t click, she’s gonna find a new zip code. Don’t care who it upsets.

in recent years ive noticed that selling horses has been demonized and looked down upon and i truly don’t understand that- sometimes you need to sell for a variety of reasons!

Thank you for speaking on this! It’s so misunderstood in the horse community. And definitely not talked about enough.

Thank you so much for this post. We got the most beautiful Appaloosa and realized he was very misrepresented. We are looking at selling him and this made me feel so much better about our decision.

I’ve been a breeder/exhibitor for 35 yrs you need to trust your intuition and know what works and doesn’t , it’s the hard decisions that make you better for you and the animal. I fully support you !

I sold my mare because I was a green rider and she was too much energy and go for me. She honed my groundwork skills, omg I love her for that! But after that point we just... Weren't a good match

My junior hunter was such a poor match. I quit riding for a bit after having him because it shook my joy of riding so much. He was much better off with a rider who appreciated all his good qualities

I used to have horses didn't want to give them up and they got the best care but I could tell they weren't growing where they could and I had college so made the tough decision to find them new homes.

I had to rehome a horse and it broke my heart, but I helped him find his person and his life is 1000% times better now and he’s happy! He wasn’t suitable for me despite me trying so hard to make him.

Sometimes it's not a match, different interests, different abilities, finding a new home as long you're particular can help you *ALL* be happier.

You are absolutely right. I use to tell people that if you're not enjoying your ride or if there is no connection it's time to find another. There are so many horses that might be a better fit!❤️😎

This part of “the industry” is the part that has been kind of demonized over the years. I think it has something to do with the vast numbers of horses that go to the bad place or wind up in terrible

Can I ask what kind of western saddle you use on your horses? Do you have something where the bars and gullet fit of variety of shapes?

1/2 Horses very much have people preferences too. Sometimes it just doesn't click. That's OK. I used to work at a friesian farm. 1 mare was extremely picky abt who "her" ppl were. I wasnt 1 of them.

There is nothing wrong with moving a horse along that you don't get along. You aren't giving up as long as you move them into the home that they need.
