    What happens if horse on loan gets sold?

    i would contact the loaner and say there are rumours that the horse as been advertised for sale and is there anything she would like to talk about? that way you are fronting the situation head on and making it clear you know! I would also speak to a solicitor. But if she does sell the horse yes...

    What would you do? is it time to give up?

    so sorry to read this. My heart goes out to you. My advice would be to send a letter by recorded delivery to the owner giving her 7 days to respond and copy in the vet report. I dont think a vet would actually PTS without the owners consent. The very best of luck! x
