I THINK YOU SHOULD TAKE YOUR ROSE COLORED GLASSES OFF OBSERVER CAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF
UNSCRUPULOUS PEEOPLE WHO DO EXACTLY WHAT THE PREVIOUS OWNERS OF CAROLYN'S MARE DID AND FALSELY ADVERIZE AND DOCTOR PICTURES OF THEIR SALE HORSES TO MAKE A BUCK EVEN MICHAEL BYATT HAS ADDRESSED THIS CONCERN IN ARABIAN HORSE WORLD MAGAZINE .. WHAT GIVES YOU THE RIGHT TO GO OFF ON CVO LIKE THAT

: I have always believed there are two
: sides to every story so I contacted
: the sellers. Very interesting to hear
: "the other side of the
: coin". They will not get
: involved in any more internet
: "pissing contests" here.
: All I can say is people should never
: form judgements based on what they
: read on the internet or hear through
: idle gossip. The Seller did say she
: printed out all the e-mail
: correspondance between the two of you.
: Can you back up your statement
: regarding "umpteen e-mails
: stating you would not buy a horse with
: a club foot" with proof of all
: these e-mails?

: A "club foot" can be a very
: subjective thing. Many people
: disagree on what is and is not a club
: foot. I think this whole thing is
: based on different opinions regarding
: club feet, not deliberate acts of
: dishonesty. I know I certainly don't
: feel that every horse that has one
: heel slightly higher or perhaps a
: slight dish in the foot is club
: footed. However, if you had a concern
: you should have had a vet exam and
: gotten a third opinion before buying
: the horse. And to say what use is it
: when there is a conflict of interest
: using the Seller's vet doesn't make
: sense either. There are umpteen vets
: in that area you could have used.
: Getting a vet check would have saved
: both parties a lot of grief.
