So I've been gathering an amount of CL ads featured on Facebook that are truly cringeworthy. I picked a handful of the very "best" for you.
"Well broke filly with a year and a half of training in western riding. Is a good kid/beginner horse. Bred for cutting, but would make a good barrel, western pleasure, or general riding horse. Coffie is calm, steady, and a little lazy, but does what is asked.

carlomino stud 3 yr old - $400 (ridgetop)
"lil romeo is a very quiet, sweet, kind, beautiful gaited carlomino. he is 3 and loves companionship. yes he is a stud the 2nd nut just dropped and he loves attention. he stays with my mares 24/7 and doesn't bother anyone very dosile. you can put him with any horse and he is great. he's a puppy with children and i personally have fallen asleep next to a campfire leaned up against his front legs. well we fell asleep together. once you come out to see him you can see for yourself. i had gotten secound place in racking cirlce h horse club in kingston springs this last summer. he is so great you are gonna get every penny's worth outta him. he loads well, eats well, rides awsome alone and with a group. he's a good trail follower. his gait is smooth and scoops your butt in the saddle. a real sweet man hence the name my lil romeo. he only has COG paper needing updating. very soft mouthed and rides with a pony split bit. he loves water and kisses. he was a rescue at one time twice removed and was very emaciated, his growth will be stunted because of mal nutrition when he was younger, his feet were very outta wack but all is fixed and is waiting for a good home. the reason why i'm selling is because we are downsizing the amount of horses so our pasture can grow and i need room for horses i'm going to be training because i own R&A horsemanship Training. The Sell amount is firm because he is a good horse for just about anyone. i love him very dearly but it's time someone else gets to enjoy my sweet heart so i would like to see him go to a good home and loving experienced rider."

So glad the 2nd nut just dropped so now it will be easier to geld him.
Saddle Bronc Practice Pony!! (Mitchell, SD)
"Rare opportunity to buy a practice saddle bronc pony. He will stand for saddling and to get on, then will buck. He is great to lead and trim. He is perfect for a future saddle bronc rider to practice on. He is around 5 years old and is around 11 hands tall. I have had many people try to ride him and he has bucked with all of them. All those world champion cowboys have to start somewhere!! Make an offer. Would like to find him a home before winter, no one is using him here. Hobby Horse Stable, Mitchell, SD"
