I am in shock. Received the article below from my best friend this morning.
Horse rescue ranch facing $5.6M suit
The horse in question, Stridor, is a horse I bought from this rescue facility yearlier last year. He was sold to me as a great and SAFE riding horse from this rescue facility. Right after I bought him I ran into a lot of problems. He reared up on me and flipped over and on 2 seperate occasions also had gone in uncontrollable bucking while under saddle. I owned him only a couple months when I finally called the rescue centre and told them to come and pick up the animal they had sold me as "safe".
Obviously this gentleman was also lied to and ended up paying the price for it. I cannot believe how lucky I am. I'm in the middle of trying to contact this poor fellow.
Never again will I get a rescue. It was the first and only time I've done it. NEVER again will I do it.
