Now this is cheek

Rummaging elsewhere I found this ad. The cheek of it got me and thought I would share.

Wanted to Lease: a horse 4 years and over but not older 10 years it can be breed but would love an Arab or Anglo has to be 14.3hh up to 16.3hh, it can anything but a stallion. I would love to have the horse for as long or as short as you wish, the owner of the horse would have to pay for feed, shoeing or trimming and I would pay for all worming unless something has been agreed to. I would use the horse for pony club, jumping, dressage and trails (maybe swimming not a have to). I would give this horse 110% of my love and care. I have 8 years riding experience and the horse doesn't have to be perfect, the horses vices can be pig root or kick, but no more serious vices. I am a kind rider but won't take any ****. I live in ******so would prefer to only travel to ******* unless you will deliver if you think you have the right horse for me.

Not only do they want the use of the horse with the owner paying the bills but want it delivered for nothing as well. I think they may be disappointed.

Heh..........everybody wants something for nothing, but that does take the cake. I hope she has a lovely time riding the Breyer model she'll get for that offer!

LOL, isn't that sweet Well, I do believe I would be tempted to put up a add in reply stating:

Wanted to Lease: a horse 4 years and over but not older 10 years it can be breed but would love an Arab or Anglo has to be 14.3hh up to 16.3hh, it can anything but a stallion. I would love to have the horse for as long or as short as you wish, the owner of the horse would have to pay for feed, shoeing or trimming and I would pay for all worming unless something has been agreed to. I would use the horse for pony club, jumping, dressage and trails (maybe swimming not a have to). I would give this horse 110% of my love and care.

I live in ******so would prefer to only travel to ******* unless you will deliver if you think you have the right horse for me.

Dear *******, I have just the right horse for you. He is a 5 year old Arabian Cross. We are not sure if he is 15 or 16hh as we cannot get the tape close to his withers when he is pig rooting, but I'm sure he's closer to 16hh. He is not a stallion, but the vet did miss a little when he was operating, but it shouldn't be a problem if you don't ride him near any mares, then he is a complete gentleman. He is an easy keeper, why without grain or much grass he is still 800lbs and only shows a little rib, so feeding will be no problem. And the farrier has told us that he has wonderful feet that do not need triming but for once a year, because it is dangerous to put a horse completely out to trim the feet more often than that. So, since his feet are so wonderful, we don't need to worry about him trying to "take out" your local farrier while you have him. Thank you for taking care of the worming. He is required to be on a daily wormer. You may have to find a way to manually put the wormer down his throat as he will not take it in feed, which shouldn't be a problem since he is such an easy keeper that he doesn't need feed anymore. I think a period of pony club work, with jumping and dressage will be a wonderful experience for him. Matter of fact, he is such a dream, that after you ride him in the arena with all the other horses the first time, he will clear the ring and everybody will be more than willing to stand back and just watch you ride him. (My friends all start shouting "Clear the Ring" when I come in and it makes me feel so special to know that they just want to watch us. He is so special that nobody wants to miss any part of our ride.) Swimming is a wonderful idea. He loves to lay down and try and swim in creeks that we cross on trails, so I know he really wants to be an olympic swimmer. I can just imagine how much he will florish and bloom with a rider willing to give him 110% of their love and care, since I am unable to after giving 110% of my income to the hospital after the last ride. He is so perfect for someone so accomplished with 8 whole years of experience, since he is not perfect and fits what you want in vices as he both pig roots and kicks. He's so amazing that as you mount, he can reach you with a hind leg and lift you right onto his back with a perfectly placed kick, if you time it right. Oh and he also will not take any ****, so you should both complement eachother well. I would be more than happy to trailer him to ******* and let you test ride him once you sign the liability waiver and non-sue policy if you think you are the right rider for him.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA

Hahaha, they'll pay for the worming! LMAO.

But really, it's not impossible. It may be impossible to find a horse to lease and have it delivered to you and all that, but not impossible to find a horse to ride for free, even nice horses in some cases, if you're experienced. I always do. I even show some for free. The phrasing was the funniest part of the ad!
