I’m still on my horse hunt…it seems to be a bit of a minefield and not all sellers seem genuine unfortunately.
I have found a ‘bargain’ horse - lovely temperament, beautiful to ride, and a very open and honest seller. The horse can no longer event due to ‘unevenness’ in one of her shoulders which is only evident in tight circles.
It had lots of expensive investigations and the vet thought it may potentially be a nerve issue, but it has not changed and there is no muscle atrophy.
It is priced to reflect the issue. It obviously wouldn’t pass a vetting. I’m looking for a happy hacker, potentially TREC etc.
Would you run a mile? She has good breeding so could potentially be a brood mare if needed.

Would you buy a horse that has failed vetting?
