Buying a horse....

Post by MarkCDodd »

Been out with my eldest daughter looking at horses over the last couple of weeks.

When I took her out to buy her first car I was the expert.

When it comes to horses, I can barely recognise the front from the back.

No matter how much she patiently explained why one horse was better than another, I am still at a loss.

When she started talking to the other horse lovers it was a foreign language.

She has finally decided on Cooper, a thoughroughbred Gelding, that she hopes will be a good Dressage horse with a bit of training.

Here is a video of her "test driving" Cooper.

Got him at a good price!!

Women are not like horses. They are like a tornado. Being a family site, I will not explain why....
