This is the only business that I have ever written a complaint about. I was looking for a safe horse for my 7year old daughter. She is not a strong rider, however she does have some ridding experience. I live 4 and a half hours away from New Caney, so I had called several times and spoke with the people at akidhorse.com before I made the long trip down.
When I went to look at the horses that they had, I took my 7 year old daughter with me and told them that I was looking for a horse for her and that she would be the only one ridding the horse. They showed me several horses. And out of the ones that they showed me, the one that I bought was the calmest.
When I went to pick him up the next weekend, he loaded fine and acted a little shy. The first few days that we had him, I rode him around in a round pen and in the pasture that he was kept in. He did okay, but he was a little nervous. A few days after that, I rode him out on the dirt road next to our house, and he ran off with me and would not stop.
I tired calling them back to take the horse back to them, and they said that I could bring him back, but that I would not get my money back. They offered to trade him for another horse, however I didn't know if what I was going to get was going to be worse than what I had, and it was a long trip to make in order to get something worse.
To date, it is impossible to catch this horse, even with feed. We tried to catch him in order to take him to the sell, and he jumped a 6 1/2 ft round pen. Now I don't know what I am going to do with him.
