Oh my...this "mare" is the same age as Coregel and Piper....my two little yearling babies. The "Rider" is 7 years old...the same age as...well....someone in grade school. Is the logic that the child is young and light weight so perfectly ok to sit on baby horse's kidneys?

And who needs a helmet, corral, reins or any sort of safety...kids bounce right?

Maybe this is why so many saddlebreds are sway backed at an early age...

But calling her a mare rather than a filly makes it ok...

Did I mention I hate horse shopping?

Yikes! What is wrong with people? If they really want to sell that "mare" there should be a picture of the small child standing on her back or hanging off her rump! Or even just laying under her front feet!

Ugh

This one is even worse, and the rider is far from light-weight :o(
