ya i have been looking into buying my own lately..the lady has been telling me that all of her shots and ferrier things have been done...i think different and the lady were i board her now thinks different too

Is there anything in your boarding contract requiring current shots and farrier work? If so, maybe your BO could demand receipts from the owner to prove she really gave her the shots and had a farrier out.

I could definitely understand not giving shots if the horse really just had shots done (double dosing can't be good for the horse), but you might still be able to get a farrier out - unless your contract prohibits you from providing basic care :shock:. Even if she did have her hooves done, if the horse is in pain, then she obviously needs more attention to her hooves. I wouldn't challenge the owners honesty at this point, I'd just get a different farrier out, and if she objects point out that you can't ride a lame horse, and she obviously needed more attention because she is in pain.

Long term, you're probably going to have to buy this horse, or give up on your lease :?. The way you describe the owner, makes her sound dishonest and crazy, definitely someone you don't want to be connected to for very long.

so new news on the boarding situation..
the lady where we are boarding the horse and the owner got into a big arguement because the owner was being rude,disrespectful, and not corroporating with the boarding lady..so there was drama with them and then,because both kept calling and complaining and acting childish i told the borading lady to let the owner take the horse and i would end my lease...i love the horse but i cant take all the risks (espically if she is going every morning doing round pin work and etc because i didnt know she was going over there until this day and if anything happens to the horse the owner is the type that will try and blame it on me and i do nothing but love the horse,train etc..) i weould bever hurt her or over over work her...
so we looked at a horse this morning and i think were gunna buy him only $500 and we checked himm out medically etc he is so goregous!..

thank u all for helping so much!!!

im free!! figuratively speaking

It sounds like the stress was definitely not worth it - even if you really liked that mare. Congratz on the new horse (yay for peace of mind and a horse ), now we need pictures !!
