Looks like this horse may have to be 'rescued' or rehomed to a free home that can help her (click on the link to see the photos): portland.craigslist.org/clc/grd/566835132.htmlRE: 3 year old quarab filly **PLEASE READ** - $350 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to: sale-566835132@craigslist.org Date: 2008-02-07, 10:16PM PST This seller is posting again! Her original post is at the bottom. Here's some pics of "Honey" or "Missy" as she will usually be called. I received them directly from the original seller last year in Oct, and then recently from this seller. Take note of the pic on the left top. She won't send you this one because it shows her bowed/turned front left foreleg. She also isn't mentioning this horse nips & bites, and her ground manners need a lot of work. To all that view this ad; before it's flagged by the seller. We almost cosidered adopting this beautiful little young mare back in Oct 07. Please let it be known that this horse had either a bad injury or a bad confirmation birth defect or ?? on her front left foreleg. The original owner claimed she was sound to me too, and you'll note this seller below is claiming she is sound. SHE IS NOT SOUND!!! Please, if you are a rescue, DO consider this horse and save her, she is very beautiful! Do not pay $350, she was purchased for $100. I have proof of this in emails and even the exact picture posted in her ad was emailed to me, along with pics of her leg (which I've posted below). If this ad isn't flagged I will tell my side of the story to anyone interested. Last week when she posted and I did this post, I received a few replies saying they were familiar with this seller, and it wasn't good reviews about her. To Heaven, you know all about this horse, PLEASE DO NOT BE DISHONEST, and say she is sound! Here's her newest ad this week: Reply to: sale-566044580@craigslist.org Date: 2008-02-07, 9:17AM PST we have a 3 year old dun quarab filly. she is very beautiful! 14.1 hands, she cross ties and lets us put a saddle on her with no problem and she's not cinchy at all! she is very quick when she runs with her friends out in the field! she has never been ridden but is probably ready to start! she is very outgoing and loves attention! e mail with question or for pictures! she is very beautiful pimpshrimp27@yahoo.com 971-275-3891 Location: gresham it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests PostingID: 566044580 Location: Gresham it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests PostingID: 566835132

I agree that there is a danger of this woman just taking the filly to a 'sale'...she sounds a bit desperate... Is there anyone near Boring that can at least go and look at the filly and see what you think about her leg? And, get the name of the farrier (what does he or she know???) from her that she says said the leg is ok? Aimee I hope she is saved "even though" her leg is not perfect. Let's not put this woman in a position where she just takes her to a sale......... Pretty little girl....cool color!

She's a good hour away from me, and I don't think I'd know what to look for. So I can't go.

This wouldn't be too far from the Hytyme Equine Rescue. Does anyone have a contact there?

Obviously not! PLEASE, can someone go and at least look at this filly? I am feeling that this filly is going to end up in a VERY BAD situation if no one steps up to take care of her. Also, MAYBE the University vet school would take her to have the vet students practice on treating her crooked foreleg? If the owner's farrier is correct in what he said, this sounds like a good opportunity for the vet students. PLEASE! I would take her myself, but, I live in a subdivision with no way to take care of her. Aimee Oh boy....has anyone actually gone to see her?

I heard from someone who inquired on this filly as I did. She is NOT a 3 year old as she was told. She had a vet out and he says she is only a yearling. and she dropped the price to 75. But I saw pictures of her leg and I don't think her knee would hold up to any real riding. As per what SHE said the vet said. I found the most recent ad. portland.craigslist.org/mlt/grd/583597661.html

I saw a new ad on CL a couple of days ago- the filly is now FREE...
I will have to see if I can locate the ad again, if anyone is interested....I'm beginning to form the opinion that someone should pick this little one up and euthanize her if she can't be treated.

HELLO!!! He is your farrier, NOT a veterinarian. What a moron. I hope someone saves this poor filly from her idiot owner soon. Anyone know if she still has her? I don't live that far from Gresham, two hours or so. I could go look at her if anyone feels like we could place her. God, I wish people would stop getting horses when they have NO resources or knowledge to care for them.

I'm glad that she still has the horse and that she is trying really hard to sound positive... I wonder if anything can be done for the filly's leg since she is so young. (And she really is a pretty horse.)
