[haflingerfriends] Re: List of horses @ Camelot Auction, NJ, lots of Haffies

After watching the episodes of Clinton Anderson working with a rescue horse I think it is a viable way to go. BUT only if I were willing to put in the extra expense of having a reputable trainer evaluate the horse at auction, and then work with the horse and me after adoption. After all of that, the horse would no longer be a bargain, but it would be saved from a possible horrible end. I would love to go that route in the future when we will be looking to add a second horse to our family.
