This message is from: "Janet" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I thought the barter idea for training was quite creative, and has potential in the right situation. Chances are a busy training and boarding stable is not going to be interested in the trade, but there is invariably going to be a younger person out there with some great skills, who has not yet established a training business (but would like to) who would be interested. Doubly interested if that same person has been wanting to buy a Fjord.
It is unlikely that this same person would already be the owner of a Fjord stallion, and the idea that you would get your mare bred _and_ trained in exchange for a weanling filly is a bit too optomistic. But I think the concept is worth trying. Let us know how it works! Janet
