This can be a caution for anybody thinking about purchasing a mount from Kasey Collins of Gold Lake, Indiana. She's also d.B.A. (conducting business as) Collins Creek Facilities.
Kasey Collins promoted A - 14 year-old child safe mount about the www.HorseTopia.com site and also on www.Horseville.com (uncertain of every other sites she might have applied additionally). I approached her and talked together with her concerning the mare. I allow her realize that it was likely to function as the first horse to get a 5-year old kid. She assured me the pony was bomb-proof (bombproof), totally secure, anybody may experience, might be utilized as training horse, etc., etc. She also explained many times "You'll not be dissatisfied within this horse". After many really plausible discussions with Miss Collins, I decided to move consider the mare.
After I came the mare was in a paddock together with her 3-month previous foal. Skip Collins set the foal within the barn, and stuck the mare. The mare did not appeared troubled at-all that her foal was simply removed for that first-time. Well, Skip Collins created notice of this and that I believed the mare appeared truly relaxed, provided her foal wasn't at her part. I allow my child on with me at her aspect, the mare appeared calm and did not actually want to transfer. Skip Collins hopped on together with her and created the mare transfer. Skip Collins explained you'd need to drive her to-go into any entrance besides a stroll. When I was departing, she got another phone concerning the mare from another woman. Skip Collins set the woman on-hold till she got a solution from me whether I needed her or not, and so I didn't wish to lose out on a "bomb-proof, child secure, ideal novice or training mount" and so I decided on a price and shipping day.
Once The mare was sent to my home thirty days later, she appeared really lively and saturated in existence. I thought she was thrilled about her fresh environments and offered her time to regulate. Whenever a month or two previous she did not appear to subside whatsoever. Anytime I direct my child around on her she'd spook at everything. Actually skilled cyclists stated she was difficult to manage. Then your mare went into warmth, oh my gosh, she attempted to attach me and my partner many times. She served just like a stud, she was snorting, whinning and squeling.
I named Kasey Collins and described anything to her concerning the mare's activities and conduct. Skip Collins responses were it is possibly the supply, hay, meadow as well as my abilities. I expected to get a complete or parial reimbursement, when I couldn't sell her as child-safe, novice or training horse. She no further desired to talk to me anymore.
Today, regarding Skip Collin's statements of the pony being bombproof, child secure along with a ideal novice or training horse. This seems to be false. Our relative continues to be driving horses for two decades and also the mare was attempting to remove together with her. She moves, tosses her mind, and needed to be kept tight within the bridle simply to maintain her in a stroll. She'snot actually experimented with trot and canter her - as she was hardly answering her in a stroll. Barely right for a youngster's mount. I'm not comfortable placing ANY kid with this mount, skilled or not. I'd not place a novice person on her both.
Miss Collins understood completely effectively this horse was to be always a childs first mount - per my conversations along with her. This mare is unquestionably not well suited for a driver simply understanding how to trip. I discover that she's a support to get a kid interval.
I'm the insufficient integrity displayed by Kasey Collins (d.B.A. Collins Creek Facilities) is deplorable and unforgivable. There have been simply no efforts to make contact with me, provide to get a complete or partial reimbursement, to merely apologize, convey any kind of shock in the information.
It's unnecessary in my experience whether Miss Collins is also misleading about horses to understand that the mount is "the next children learn to experience mare" or not.in either case, I think it is really troubling that she proceeds to market and promote horses that aren't because they are displayed to become. I'd wish this ought to be enough to prevent anybody from investing in a mount from her. Clearly, personally I think this mount was grossly misrepresented as does a number of other mount people/people that I've talked with.in total, if anyone is thinking about purchasing a mount out of this individual, I recommend that you simply consider the reality of my scenario into account and create a smart decision about whether you need to buy or not. I'd hate to determine still another individual within the same challenging scenario our household continues to be put in.
