A bit a a dilema going on at the yard atm..
Long story short.. A girl (Girl X) at my yard wanted to sell her mare and foal ( 2 months old ) as quickly as possible. So she advertised them very cheap and a buyer came to see them (Girl Y)- deposite changed hands.. 1 week later said buyer appeared with large horse box to transport mare and foal. Full payment was made and passport was given.
On arrival Girl X brought mare and foal out of the field and left them with Girl Y and proceeded to leave the stranger on the yard. Buyer was made well aware that the mare had only ever travelled once in a trailer but was still keen to buy the pair.
After a 4 hour journey down the county, and spending 5 hours inthe yard The mare refused to load. Seemigly all 'techiques' were tried but wasnt successful. Girl Y put mare and foal back in field and went home.. - May i add, Girl Y also proceeded to take a chunk of my youngsters mane to DNA test the foal against WITH OUT PERMISSION!
Calling Girl X demanding all her money back and saying her horse was 'dangerous'
Girl X is now left with a mare and foal she doesnt want- with very badly cut legs and capped hocks.. What should happen now? Who is in the right/wrong? Just lookign for other peoples opinions ont he matter?
Tropical punch and chocolates to all who managed to follow that
