We are a family of four my husband me and my son and daughter. We both work full time jobs and are scraping by. I am posting because I want my horse back. I had traded her to someone who said they could train her and make her a happy and well behaved horse. They told me the horse whose name is Apple they traded me was kid broke and would be safe for us to ride I thought that it sounded like a win win situation. My horses name was True and I love her so much. Recently we called these people we had been dealing with and they missed their horse as much as I missed mine so we decided we were going to trade back. After about a month I finally reached them again and they told me that True had went through a fence and sliced her leg straight through the thigh down to the bone and that she would be lame for the rest of her life. so they figured it wouldn't by fair to trade back. I went through agony and cried for days for True and the pain I couldn't bare to hear she went through. We told the people who have her that when she heals and they decided what they wanted to do that I wanted her back even if I had to buy her. They agreed two months later I got a call from another lady even farther across the state from us say she had my horse and didn't want her. She said that she traded two horses for her from the lady who got her from us. She said that True was wild and had obviously been seriously abused. She also said that that lady had told her that True was completely DEAD broke. She She also told us that True had never had her leg cut. These two women know eachother rather well from the way it sounds. This lady told me that Apple was never broke and that when she was sat on she bucked. I was completely flabberghasted I couldn't believe someone would do this to me it hurt think that True was injured and then to hear she was abused. Luckily I had never put my children on this horses back by the way they always rode on True. Unfortunatly for me I ahd already attempted to ride Apple and had been thrown it took me two weeks to heal enought to function properly. So as it stands I just want my horse back I love and miss her. This lady who now has her wants 600 dollars for her and she is six hours away. I think I would need 1000 dollars to buy her and help pay for gas. She said if I don't come up with the money by the end of the month shes going to take her to a sale (she refuses to tell me where) horses are selling really cheap at sales and people are buying them and taking them to Mexico for butcher!!! Please don't let this happen to my horse I have to save her! Any help would be greatly appreciated thank you!
