[lucie1984]

For anyone who has read my posts over the last few days..I have contacted the pony club and got a number my girl Phoebe is now known as FiFi, she is happy competing and apparently doing really well! The girl who owns her is away at the moment but i spoke to her dad! Said he would get his daughter to call me! i sat in tears on the phone to him its the best feeling to know she is well and happy and having as much fun as we did together!!!!
it has made my day!!!!!!!!!!

[lucie1984]

oh yes, this is FiFi, sorry i dont know how to take her new owner out of the piccy so i hope she doesnt mind! But piccy taken after she won the PC showjumping last week!!

 

[Firewell]

Ahh I love happy endings

You hear so many horror stories about much loved horses falling into the wrong hands, its lovely to hear she has the perfect home and is well cared for

 

[lucie1984]

exactly i just didnt know and was worried where she was! it is so nice to see that she is happy and very loved!

 

[brighteyes]

Fantastic - I have found two that I loved dearly (one was on loan to us) and one I sold to a lifetime home and which got sold on a year later

but then turned up in an even more fantastic really really permanent home

It's a wonderful feeling and I hope you have many happy stories to share and things to catch up on

 

[brightmount]

That's wonderful, I'm so pleased for you. Fifi/Phoebe looks amazing and has obviously found a lovely home

 

[Nickijem]

Great news. I wish I could find the horse I used to ride but I'm afraid it wouldn't be such a happy ending (no reason but you never know!).
It's great to see FiFi in such super condition and obviously doing so well.

I am so happy for you , that is great news for u .

I just wondered if anyone had any advice on a similar matter to this.
A friend had to sell her horse , 1 year ago , due to personal circumstances, sold for £2000 ,passed 5 stage vetting, verbal agreement with new owner , was not to re sell the horse , If ever to be sold, to be sold back to my friend.

My friend was told that they were attempting to sel this horse to all and sundry , in the past few months, contacted the owner who said he had been sold, then said he hadnt , he was on loan , The loaner has now vetted the horse , and wanted to buy , for £4000 approx, Horse failed vetting quite badly, has had leg injuries while with this owner.

My friend wants this horse back so much , but owner is defiant and for some reason will not sell the horse back to my friend!! and is trying for a lot of money esp for a horse that wont pass vet , although the loaner does not want the horse now, but is continuing to loan / ride/ jump the horse, possibly causing more damage , where does my friend stand?

owner is talking about Auction sales or meat man for the poor horse!!!
Friend wants to ahemm ,"take " the horse back , this would pretty much amount to theft , wouldnt it ?
Horse is still registered as my friends on passport , Microchip etc , but the owner has these documents, What can she do within the law really ??
any help ??? would it be a civil matter , or criminal , theft etc ?????


Thanks
