Bill of Sale Agreement

We are looking for a wonderful home for my 17-year-old Thoroughbred gelding. He’s retired from Eventing due to an annular ligament injury and would make an ideal companion horse. Veterinary recommendations are for walking only, with no restrictions at that pace.

This sweet, intelligent gelding competed up to Preliminary Level Eventing with his previous owner and has spent the past seven years as my trusted low-level Eventing and adult amateur partner. He has excellent manners — no vices, stands quietly for the vet and farrier, and truly enjoys attention.

Lately, we’ve been spending time on trail rides at the walk. He loves having a purpose and connecting with his person, and he would thrive in a home where he receives regular attention and affection.

We reside in greater Rochester, Minnesota.

Skye

Skye is a 17 yo OTTB, vet aged 16-18. I can make out that her tattoo starts with a J and a couple of the numbers, but have not been able to positively ID her.

Skye is in central Illinois.

I very naively got her in April 2023 from a supposed “trainer” who said she was underweight from winter and that he used her as a lesson horse. I obviously did not know what I was doing nor did I understand how bad of shape she was in to begin with. I am happy I unwittingly saved her from that horrible place but that has landed me here!

She was diagnosed with kissing spine.

Vet put her on low dose equinox, said she could be lightly ridden by a light rider…I personally would feel terrible riding her after seeing those X-rays.

!!PLEASE HELP!!
