 over 3 feet, cantered just fine, went cross country and was a really fun
 ride and enjoyable horse for her.
 

I have a little miniature horse with a clubbed foor and he drives with no 
problems as well as run and play with the other horses.  He is 12 years old 
and I have had him for over six years and he was that way when I got him.
Of course, his weight is nothing compared to big horses, but nevertheless, 
his foot is what it is and he manages just fine.

Aimee,

I'm sure you're just kidding about selling him for meat, but just in case
you do get somewhere close to desperate, I hope you would consider locating
a large animal rescue in your area that would probably take him in. I know
of a few in the northwest and I'm certain they must be everywhere in the
States. Start browsing on the Internet and asking around and I'm sure you
can line out something in the eventuality that the sales effort doesn't
work, which in all likelihood it will not... people are not eager to assume
liabilities without some return.

Best of Luck, Ruthie, nw mt

 Hello List,
 I know this isn't the best time to post, as a lot of folks are away at
shows
 etc.
 But I need to stop putting this off.  I posted a few months ago, and had
some
 intrest, but I'm desperate now.
 I need to sell this little darling or my husband says he's selling him for
 meat (as you can imagine ~ I'm horrified at the thought!!!)
 He is gelded, reg. with the NFHR. 1 yr old this past July. 13 Hands, 600+
 lbs. VERY handsome, brown dun.  He does however have a clubbed right front
 foot, that he developed from an injury as a young foal.  He is SUPER
sweet,
 very loveable, gets along great with everyone ~ 2 legged or 4. (actually
too
 good...he petted a porcupine this week) He is a real clown and though I
doubt
 he'll be useable when he matures, he'd make someone a great pasture mate
or
 pet.  ( I shouldn't say he WONT be useable ~ with shoeing and therapeutic
 work he might ~ I just don't know and neither does the vet)  He's fully
 vaccinated, wormed reg. trimmed every 6 weeks.   I would give him away if
I
 could, but my husband wants to recoup SOME of his vet bills.  We live in
 Maine, and are asking $800 for him.  Please contact me privately for more
 info, and photos.  Thank you, Aimee  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
