Disability, But Rideable??

What the hell does that mean?? I can just IMAGINE... Why not state what the poor horse's problem is. So you want someone else to take the problem child off your hands. Sheesh.

I can't find the other posts about horses with problems that people want to get rid of. I guess it's good that at least they are disclosing the impediment but I don't get why try to palm them off on others. In this market, I would see about putting them down, I think. That is a tough call and easier for me to post about it since it's not my horse but really, is it you just don't want to take responsibility or don't want to pay the vet/knacker fees?? The rescues and rehab places are full to bursting and so why not crank open the wallet (use a crowbar and a winch if it helps) and put the horse down.
