Does anyone follow Trina's Cobs on FB?

I've been following the Lucky saga and in my personal opinion and from what I've read on the buyer's page, Trina has been supportive. The buyer has been very unlucky and would have been well within her rights to return him for a full refund when his tumour became apparent but she decided to keep him and treat him. If, as Trina says, there were no physical symptoms while he was in her care (and she did have him for months) and he was in full work with no issues, plus vetted, how could she have known?

Someone else did point out that within a day or two of arriving with the new owner he broke a gate and a fence and could easily have triggered the nosebleeds when he had those accidents. If those incidents hadn't happened, the tumour may have gone undetected for years.

It's a shame they don't just stick to horses and leave the politics to others. It's sort of gtl ish,ie using what could be a straight forward business advertisement page to spout out about their strong beliefs.

The political posts have died down compared to what they were a few months ago. There are still more provocative posts than I'm comfortable with (presumably they're continuing those because the page is monetised and hay is dear) but I like the fact that they buy the horses from private sellers, keep them for a good long while, get to know them and allow us to follow their journeys before selling them. It's a nice contrast to other dealers I follow who buy in several at a time from Ireland and advertise them within a couple of days as bombproof happy hackers suitable for any rider.
