Adoption Agency or Horse Trader?

Lucky Duck · 08-10-2004, 03:16 AM

Read the following descriptions and tell me which one you think is the horse trader and which one is the adoption agency.....

FARM A
-Places want ads for horses in magazines (like Practical Horseman)
-Advertises 'prices' of $1,200 up to $10,000 (and sometimes above) for sound, rideable horses
-Does not provide transportation, you must find a way and pay to get the horse home
-Allows exchanges, but you must pay for transportation again
-If a horse is returned and another one isn't taken, you must pay up to $300 in board a month until that horse finds another home or until you take another horse.

FARM B
-Goes to local auctions and buys horses, sometimes out-bidding the meat-man
-Advertises 'prices' of $500 up to $1,500 for sound, rideable horses
-Provides transportation to get the horse to it's new home
-Allows exchanges, and provides transportation again
-No extra $ involved with returning a horse

Farm A horse trader all the way!!
(Uh-oh, I think I see where are you going with this????? If so, after this thread has many responses that are the same, which I am sure that with all the knowledgable horse people we have on here, it will, print it out

)

Farm B would be the rescue. Concerned only with the welfare of the horse and matching the right horse with the right adopter

My thoughts the same A) Trader... though the board thing sounds like a rescue around here

B) a Rescue
