A long day, but a good one. There were only about 20 horses at the sale, so not as many as in the past. We were able to save four horses- and a pregnant pygmy goat...
I just got home and wanted to quickly post photos of the new guys. I will post about the auction itself tomorrow, we are exhausted!
"Harmony", a 12-13 year old Arab QH cross mare who was rescued for $90.00. She appears sound and healthy, just thin. She was ridden at the sale and looked quiet and steady under saddle.
"Spice"is a little filly who had been left at the sale yard, she was not run through the auction, but we found her owner and bought her directly from him for $50.00. She is thin and wormy and unsure, but she is very willing and very sweet. Poor little thing...
"Boone" is a 14 year old gelding who is shod all the way around and appears very sound and healthy. Looks like he will make someone a wonderful riding horse, he has a quiet and steady personality. He was rescued for $140.00.
"Bonanza" is a 5 year old Palomino gelding. He looks sound and healthy, easy to handle and probably well broke. He was saved for $150.00.
"Blossom", the pregnant Pygmy goat. All the horses (and Blossom) are safe and secure at Shiloh, eating dinner, drinking water and getting some rest...

Excellent! Did you get papers on the palomino gelding? He looks like a sweetheart.
