Has anyone placed a 'wanted' ad either for a horse to buy or a horse to loan? How successful was this? Were you contacted by suitable horses or people trying to match their horse to your requirements? Are wanted ads a good idea generally?
I placed an ad looking for a loan and ended up with one on loan with a view to buy. He's an angel and I love him to bits.
I had so many offers i could have taken but plumped for my boy.
I'd do it it. Not everyone advertises their horses for sale or loan but the ad can prompt them.
I found the perfect horse for my son about 5 years ago from a wanted advert on Horsequest. We had many unsuitable horses offered - but he was the one & we would never have found him otherwise.
I'm afraid my wanted ad hasnt been so lucky - specifically said absolutely NO TBs. Youngsters or Mares. almost every reply (and I had many) were one or all of the above!
But thats just here in Ireland - maybe a wanted ad over there might be a better bet for you than I found over here?:unsure:
