Horse auctions in Oregon?

Beeks · 08-09-2009, 10:54 PM

I love the fall Hermiston Auction. My trainer takes a big empty trailer every year and comes back with horses that he starts or restarts and then sells. Make a pretty penny doing it too. His horses are pretty sought after.

Maybe this year I will tag along with him and meet you there. Sally is staying with him right now. Just boarding, not training.

I went to the one in Woodburn in July. It is the 3rd Friday of every month. If you are looking for a rescue that would be a place to look. There were quite a few horses that didn't even sell for $10.

Man I wish I could go to that one! Anyone know of any auctions by me? I live in Elma, WA its like 30 minutes south of Olympia. I don't think I'm getting anything soon but maybe next year. I'd like to go look even though that could be a bad idea lol. I have hear there are a few around but no idea where they are...

I promise to tackle you if you will do the same for me, if the urge to throw our bidding numbers in the air, strikes.

i have always wanted to go to the hermiston auction *sigh*. Often times their yearlings go for $25! I am about 7 hours away,too...and i don't have a trailer...lol...so i guess no more horsey rescuing at this time

Hope you get one,though...good luck!

LOL...I promise! In fact we don't even have to get a number....OH wait that won't work for me...they know me out there and will let me buy without a number...hahahaha.

Trust me it's hard not to snatch them up when you see them going for 5 and 10 dollars.
