    She sounds like a nice horse. Definately, take a look at her. Go back a few times (at different times/days of the week) and ride her, just to make sure she's not being drugged or anything. Make sure you ask lots of questions and get a vet check if you think about buying her. Her feet should do okay, but if your riding where it's real icy it might be a good idea to put some studded shoes on her, during the winter. Also make sure to look at a couple different horses before you jump on the first one you see. She might be a great horse to ride and all that, but if you have your heart set on western pleasure make sure you'll be able to train her, if she's not already. I've seen people buy horses that are definately jumpers and try to retrain them to do barrels, and it dosen't work out well.

    sounds good. You may even want to ask the owners if you can take her to your house/barn for a week and return her if she doesn't work out for you. It sounds like you found her on dream horse. I regularly look there to, just so I know what is usually available because I can't have a horse at the moment. I think you can give the link here, that is ok because it is a public site.

    it dosent say anything about his health there i would call up the people and find out wat his health is, ANY horse with ANY type of foot problem is just gonna lead to tons of vet bills and little riding and same with artheritis i found a horse perfect for me but he was only 12 and he started getting artheritist and so he was no good choosing a horse is really hard they sound perfect but then you find problems with them
