...the outcome. But where I live, you still have to be careful when you sell a horse. They'll buy it if it's priced too low, and truck it down to Mexico. They run big truckloads of horses that they've bought cheap down there and sell them to the slaughterhouses.

The few horses that we've parted with were sold to friends who asked us if they could buy a particular horse, and they send us pictures and updates on how they're doing if we haven't stopped by to see them in a while. I'd be leery of selling a horse to someone that I didn't know personally.
