I've dealt with good ones and bad ones and I've found if they decide they don't like the horse for whatever reason, then they don't work with it. Bullshit! they're being payed and well at that!

I'm sure Brittany and Rich will do exactly what they need to do, however. I hope Rhythm is safely up in their barn by this time, where Rich can continue giving him some attention. Maybe that original friend of Brittany's can come give him a little exercise while Brittany recuperates.Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07331876220972088597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053415389447235937.post-61668010751260761792008-06-05T06:29:00.000-07:002008-06-05T06:29:00.000-07:00the good news is that she still likes the horse.

Had the horse been in consistent work and being trained(as paid for) this may not have happened. It should be a clue for Brittany and Rich that if the horse is misbehaving in an arena the last thing you want to do it bring him outside in a field full of horses for pictures. I'm sorry but that's just common sense 101, of course the horse wasn't going to behave. I'm afraid that after hearing about pictures being taken in both English and Western saddles I'm thinking they may be going to sell him. Which is just wrong because they are taking the word of a lying, deceitful trainer who I am sure has already picked out their next horse for them at his place or somewhere he knows he can get a hefty commission and make some more money on these two unsuspecting people. I have seen this happen over the years more than once, the old bait and switch con game. Disreputable trainers tried to pull the same scenario on me. Luckily I am not so trusting of someone else's opinion and am glad I didn't cave to their pressure. I had the most wonderful time with my guy for fifteen years.I'm hoping for everyone's sake they hold onto the horse and take it slow and find the right trainer.Grey Horse Mattershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05837575441967937196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053415389447235937.post-18508890184578746502008-06-05T06:03:00.000-07:002008-06-05T06:03:00.000-07:00I am waiting anxiously for all the new development...I am waiting anxiously for all the new developments on this subject, and if Rich is reading this, do what you have to do, this guy needs to be shown the error of his ways! Easier said than done I know but hang in there and make sure you get fairly compensated especially for your daughter. I am not normally one who would shout sue sue sue, but in this case think that the person who had the knowledge should be held liable for this, it should never have happened especially after all of the money you have put out on his training. They dont help much over cyberspace but you have my thoughts and prayers, and I hope Brittany heals quickly.<BR/><BR/>(((Hugs)))<BR/><BR/>LoriLori Schmidt (LoriProPhoto)https://www.blogger.com/profile/01786227217137143996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053415389447235937.post-69808517088261874052008-06-05T04:57:00.000-07:002008-06-05T04:57:00.000-07:00Keeping EVERYONE involved in our prayers here.
