Do you have a written contract? If not, was it given verbally in front of any witnesses? If so, then it is yours to keep. Giving it back - depends on the person that gave it in the first place. Maybe they do not want it back - you cannot force them to take it back.

Did They Give It To You As In "Its Yours To Ride While Your Here"
Or
Did They Give It To You As In The Horse IsIn Your Pasture/Barn. And Your Feeding It And Doing Everything For It.
Or
Was It Left To You... Are You Watching It For The Week?
Is It Regestered? If It Is You Have To Have The Original Owner /Transfer The Papers Into Your Name...
Ask The Person Who "Gave" The Horse To You What Their Terms Are...

If a person gives you a horse, I wouldn't doubt they are giving you it to keep.
I was given my oldest gelding after I leased him for a few years. The owner couldn't take care of him due to the owner's health.
My mom was given her gelding (we put down) by a co worker who passed away after being ill.
However, always define "give" to the person who owns the horse prior to exchanging.
If a horse is being leased to you, that means it is for your use but at a certain time limit has to be given back.

once a lady "gave" me her horse because she got in a fight with her mom ( her mom owned the stable she kept her at ) and a week later she came and got her to take her to a different stable. i never saw the mare again. so u just have to think why the person doesnt want the horse. because if it has something wrong with it u dont want it anyway. talk to the owner and get a proof of ownership. o by the way the lady that said i could have her horse was in her thirtys not a kid.

We really need more information than that. I mean, if you are "given" a horse, then it should be yours indefinitely. But every situation is different. Does the person want the horse back?

Yes, unless you signed a contract giving the previous owner right of refusal. If you did that, it means that if you are going to sell it, you have to let them know so they can take the horse back if they want to. Some contracts say that you have to sell it back to them for a dollar or something, others dont.

You answered your own question! You were GIVEN the horse, it's yours to keep (or sell - to a good home)!

It is yours to keep, unless there was an understanding about giving it back under certain circumstances.

If someone GIVES you something then it belongs to you...if they loan it to you, then at some point it will need to be given back.

horses are real property,you would need a bill of sale to prove ownership. if you have this it is yours,verbal statements are not admissable in court.
