Warning...RANT!!!

[Bri]

I don't think I have ever been as angry as I am now!!!

Had the vet today for my boy, after a long battle managed to get him nerve blocked and he blocked out to the foot. Vet asked me to get on and ride to confirm it was his foot that has been causing the problem.
His behaviour was worse then it has been, he was bucking, rearing, twisting and spinning all over the place. Even moving my leg against his side was enough to set him off. I have never seen a horse more clearly trying to tell someone that it's in a serious amount of pain. I know my horse and he definitely wasn't taking the proverbial!!

Anyway, lady on my yard strides over and announces that he is, and as I am not capable she will get on him and 'ride him through it '.
I am absolutely fcuking seething!!! It was all announced loudly in front of Vet and YO who both dismissed her, but I can picture her now sitting on top of him belting the hell out of him and screaming 'go on, get up'
Mother insists I'm being unreasonable but I'm still wound up about it...

What a tw~t!!!

hang on, let me get this straight-this is your horse right. What a cheeky fu**ing bi*ch. I would have been totally fuming too. I think shes lucky you did not deck her one

what did the vet think problem was?

 

[RunToEarth]

I think I would have lost it. After what that horse has put you through these last few weeks, and having the vet tell you such demoralising news, I would have turn round and cracked her one.

I would be fuming,how dare she, i dont blame you for being very angry,i would be in your position too!

 

[Christmas_Kate]

cheeky cow!! I would have bopped her one. Good on vet and YO for dismissing her, but someone really should have just said "pi** off".
you're not over reacting, but don't let it get to you. She will get her comeuppance one day....

 

[SecretSquirrell379]

cheeky bugger, I hope you told her in no uncertain terms what you thought of her 'statement'

 

[vic07]

Some people will always cause trouble.

did you find out anything about his lameness? any diagnosis?

 

[Bri]

I was too shocked to do anything but stare at her in disbelief!!
Vet put her down quite sharply though!

Diagnosis: Not good. Needs a bone scan and mri, don't know if insurance will pay and we can't afford it. Horse is also turning psychotic.

 

[Haflinger]

I would be fuming and probably completly lost it! What a cheeker bugger! And after all that your going through...

 

[tashyisaudrey]

what a cheek! I'd be having none of that, tell her to get lost. Hope your ned gets better soon

 

[pottamus]

Wherever there are horses there seems to be nosy interfering know it all's and I get sick of them too...they can take their opinions and stick them where the sun don't shine as far as I am concerned! Try and ignore it at least the vet and YO know what is best and that is all that matters...hope horsey gets sorted out soon.

 

[maddielove]

my yard is full of people like that..esp. the yard owner.can't stand them, thankfully i proved them wrong when they said that i wouldn't be able to ride her for then years..only took a fortnight!!!
hope you horsey gets better soon, good luck xx

 

[Tharg]

Cow, ignore her.

 

[Rosyryan]

Hmm, we used to have 1 of those on our yard, forever pokoing her nose in hanging over the box door when you're trying to have a quiet word with the vet, etc etc, tempting though to have let her get on and the hopefully hit the deck! I don't know why they do it to look big maybe? Or more clued-up--mystery!!!
