A friend bought a new horse on Saturday. She had previously been to see him and liked him (obviously!). It was a private sale.
Since he came back he has been really nasty - kicking and biting her, and taking chunks out of her other horse. The vet tried to sedate him, but the sedative didn't quieten him down, so he couldn't be treated.
My friend has contacted the seller, who has refused to have him back.
The vet suggested that he could have been dehydrated when she viewed and collected him, as apparently this is what some sellers do to make a horse appear more docile.
Does she have any comeback at all?
