Okay, the seller delivered her for me last night. He started having trouble with his truck, the oil pressure dropped. When we got off the freeway his truck was knocking and it died on the side of the road. His son came and with his truck towed the seller's truck which was still pulling the horse trailer. We're ~8 miles from the freeway. The seller left his truck here overnight and still has not come to get it. If there were something wrong with the horse he 1) wouldn't have left his truck here overnight and/or 2) would have come and gotten his truck very early this morning. Right?

I sort of know how to check a few things but I didn't do a flexion (sp) test, which I will have my husband help me do when he gets home. That should tell me something about what's going on, I'm thinking it may be her stifles. Lord, I hope not... He wasn't being obvious about it, but I heard him tell 2 people who called "I'm showing her right now..." and it wouldn't surprise me if people were calling him about her at the time. I am very skeptical and expect to be told other people are interested in a horse when I'm looking at it. I figure if she is lame then she wont be bucking much or running off so if anything she will be a great confidence builder for my kids. The guy's truck is still here so it doesn't look like he's trying to avoid me and she hasn't laid down in a while and has been walking around fine. We snuck out to go get the kids a riding helmet so they can ride her today. Between walking her around with them and probably riding her again myself and the flexion (sp) test I should have a good idea what's going on. I just looked up in time to see her bucking and kicking at my filly (still trying to establish a pecking order) so it looks like she feels pretty good now. if she's sound, I got a hell (pardon my french) of a deal! As for being 5, she's got the teeth of a five year old. Last edited by Barn Babe; 06-21-2011 at 3:46pm. |

I can't say that I know anything about horses other than which end I have been called on occasion but that looks like a fine specimen. Hope you all enjoy her.
