I adopted my first horse in October. It was a dream come true. I went and test rode him and absolutely fell in love with this horse. He was a dream come true till i took him off the trailer at home.
The first day I rode him at home was a a horrific experience, I have fallen off horses tons of time but this was the first time I thought I would actually die. He flipped out and dug at the ground where I was laying. Rearing up and kicking and causing all kinds of chaos. It took me 20 minutes to get near him and un tack him.
I figured it was just new jitters with him, so i did some ground work with him and thought it was working. 2 weeks later i went to take him out of the stall and as soon as he got out side, he reared up and while i was holding the lead rope. He tore off and then turned around and charged me. It took me 30 minutes to catch him.
I was giving him less protein then what the adoption agency was giving him, so i know he wasn't high or anything.
When we adopted him, my boss wanted a good trail horse and she adopted one as well. The mare she adopted was supposed to be 11 and in good health.
When we got her him she turned out to be 22, an ex race horse and has wheezing problems. She payed 1500 for the adoption of the mare.
When my boss confronted Elena (the adoption agency owner) she said she would refund half of her money.
She also told us she would wait 30 days before cashing out checks, SHE LIED, she cashed them the same day we picked up the horses. My check bounced since i hadn't transfered the money, my boss on the other hand lost all of her money.
She also made it clear she would be there when i picked up the two horse but she wasn't and she made it clear she would be there when we dropped my gelding off and she wasn't. She is a lier and is out for money.
She gave us an old horse that is basically a child's horse and a horse that is so crazy he could kill someone easily. She forgot to mention that the gelding i got was high strung and had extreme anxiety problems.
My boss LOST all of her money and STILL has the horse!!!
Elena refuses to answer any emails or make any type of amends.
I sent a bounce check fee to her, just to make amends and she refused to cash it and when i contacted her about it, she was extremely rude and hung the phone up on me.
Beware of this woman she is a lier and doesn't care about your well being. I could of seriously been injured and all she could do it take what she could get and ruin my first experience with my first horse.
