This message is from: "Martie Bolinski" I think the paper, the Lancaster Farmer put prices of the horses but maybe just 'grade', purebred etc. We check out the prices periodically. I know a lot of local people who have purchased there in the past for riding horses. Never took the chance before

This message is from: pedfjo...@aol.com Hi List. Totally agree with Joe about the 2 " rescue " Fjords. Those look to be Fjord cross's, which of course means nothing to the horse standing there. I have seen the notes that came with these 2, and the gelding does not leave the mare well, an
