The other day, I saw an ad for a horse being sold to a "breeding home only."
I can never understand this idea. Probably only half the horses being sold to breeding homes only are actually breeding quality. And it's up to the discretion of the owner to decide whether or not to breed them. If you want your horse to be bred, don't sell them.
In this economy when there are already too many horses, you're not only encouraging the production of more, you're forcing it. And narrowing your options. If the horse isn't suitable for riding, then it's a pasture home only.
Not a breeding home only.
