I have personally seen six horses leave this trainers care in terrible condition after arriving in beautiful condition. I witnessed every one of these horses within a week prior to arriving at his facility and then again within days, several the same day, that they were removed. The difference was both astounding and disturbing.
One horse had supposedly been in training and was being ridden for months and when removed from the premises the horses feet were in terrible need of being done, the horse was horribly thin (protruding hip bones and ribs) and his mane and tail were giant witches knots.
Another person I know was only boarding her horses there. Two were removed in horrible condition. She then went back to pick up the other horses that were on a pasture down the road also in DaCota's care. She removed them from that pasture without notifying DaCota that she had removed them. Nearly two weeks went by and the owner asked DaCota why her horses had not been properly cared for. His reply was ro ask her, if she had a problem with the condition of her horses why were her other horses still on his pasture. He had obviously not been to that pasture in nearly two weeks and had left the horses remaining unatended. He had no idea she had already removed her hores.
This is just a small example of what I have wittnessed involving this trainer. Beware
