Horses from Portugal

[Lonesome_Dove]

Has anyone heard of the above? It is a dealer's yard based in the south of France (oddly!!!) and run by a woman called Jo. My sister has been waiting 13 weeks for her horse to arrive when she was told it would be 5 weeks.

Just wondering if anyone else has had any dealings with them.

Goodness...that seems VERY dodgy indeed! 5 weeks for your horse to arrive? that is beyond the joke! and now its 13 weeks!

What is the dealers excuse- has she remained in touch?

NEVER HEARD OF THEM , BUT THATS SEEMS FAR TOO LONG .
MY FRIEND GOT A HORSE FROM GERMANY AND ONLY WAITED 3 WEEKS

Thanks for the replies! She has vaguely stayed in touch, but is now moving house and is uncontactable, my sister has had better luck communicating with the delivery man, who is just as annoyed as her!

The last excuse she had was the blockades at the French ports, which was YONKS ago!

My sister has received emails from other customers who have told her it took 15 weeks for theirs to arrive, and was worth waiting for!

We'll see!

Thanks again!
