My buddy is not doing that well. He's content enough in the pasture, but his back is still sore. I ride or longe him lightly twice a week and he feels a little better afterward, less soreness and little more supple what with warming up and moving and stretching. But his trot is flat, his canter feels terrible and I just don't know what to do. I can proceed with an SI injection, which my vet suggested. That requires going to a special consulting vet about two hours away and paying at least $400 or so with no guarantees it will work. I can try another loading dose of Adequan, which isn't cheap either, but might help? He's fat and that topline I slaved for is gone, it kills me a little every day. I comfort myself knowing he LOVES hanging out with his BFF, Danny, in the pasture and begging treats and scratches off of everyone at the farm while ambling around his favourite huge pasture. He's hardly suffering!
The point to all this is that I do want to try to fix him, I am not giving up yet! However, cash will be needed either way. This is where you come in. Give us cash, muahahahha! No, just kidding. Sort of.
I have a, uh, teensy bit of extra horse stuff that is ready to move on to new homes. This is your chance to do some Christmas shopping early! None of it is super-fancy, my apologies, but I can guarantee that there is something within your budget range! Buy a backup in case you have a wardrobe malfunction. Thinking of getting started in eventing and need a vest to get yourself legal? How about some inexpensive schooling equipment to save wear on your nice gear? You are in luck, so peruse at your leisure and drop me an email (link in right sidebar) about anything you are interested in.
The gory details: Shipping and handling for all items is a flat $7.00 in the US. If you are in Canada or elsewhere, I'll have to figure that out. All items will ship as soon as I can upon receipt of payment. Payment is accepted via check or Paypal, email me for information. I will also take reasonable offers or do package deals. I have done my best to accurately represent, photograph, and measure all items. Everything is kept clean, nonsmoking, I have cleaned and conditioned all the leather, blah blah. Please inquire if you need any more details.
Ready.....set.....GO!
Collegiate reins -- never used. Brown laced leather reins. I just don't like laced reins, so they are new! Total length is 116" so half is 58". Retail $75. $30.
Laced reins -- brown leather. I think they used to be black. Well, they're not now. These were my everyday reins for several years, still in great shape. Total length is 118" so half would be 54". $5.
Hunting breastplate -- dark brown, plain raised leather. Lovely condition, nice leather. Horse size. Retail $150. $50.
Dover jumper girth -- dark brown with lighter brown inset. 42", measures 46" from tip of buckle to tip of buckle. Stainless steel roller buckles. I was schooling a very small QH, LOL! Retail $50. $25.

Big D dress sheets -- THERE ARE TWO OF THESE. Blue/hunter/burgandy plaid with burgandy trim, very nice, hardly used. One is a 74", one is a 78". Leather-reinforced fittings with nice hardware. Closed front. Surcingle and leg straps on both. The 78" does have a 1" tear near the butt dart, pretty easy to stitch up, pictured. Retail $70. $40 for the 74" and $30 for the 78"
Roma riser pad -- fits most saddles. White. Lifts rear of saddle. Orange feline included at no extra cost; I'll poke holes in the box. Retail $35. $15.
