I bought a horse named LANCE from Ashley, the horse was not sound when I first seen it, she tried to act like it was nothing, then she did admit to this fact.
She told me that LANCE was never lame and that he did just have new shoes on him. I waited for the vet to come back with all the paperwork for him and when we showed back up to pick him up Ashley told us she used him for a jumping show and he was great and sound. The weather had turned ugly, (we were unable to ride) and she plays that she is a nice person and honest. But this is far from the truth..
POOR LANCE looked like he lost another 200lbs since we had last seen him, and was so poor and full of fungus that I just could not believe someone would allow a horse to get so bad. She did not disclose the fact that LANCE Weaves, in the stall and in pasture at the gate, he pulls back and took out my ankle on one of his episodes. Lance also has Navicular syndrome issues in the front, he was starved, she sold him as a 9 year old and he is 12 yr old. LANCE has colick episodes every few weeks, just lays down and acts like he is going to die. LANCE also had one of the worst ear infections I had ever seen on a horse.
After many phone calls back and forth with Ashley she said she would take him back. I felt bad that LANCE had to go to that kind of home, for her to lie to someone else about him.
Then, ASHLEY decided not to take him back, I am sure she knew how badly mistreated she had him that she said she would pay me half my money back, which I would use to get him help. Then of course after the first payment, she sends no more.
I am starting papers to sue her in court, and would like any body that knows anything more about her dishonest ways, or the history of the poor American Warmblood LANCE it would be great to hear from you. She needs to stop, it was my ankle, it could of been my daughters, we were lucky, but, someone else out there could be getting these bad, lied about horses/ponies, might not be so lucky. Lets stop her from doing this to anybody else. Thanks
