I too bought a BROODMARE from a woman in Alto, TX...
Betsy Weathers. The photos she sent me, the mare looked thin but I assumed she needed her teeth done (she is 18). Betsy said she was not thin because I asked if there was an issue. After MANY emails & phone calls I pay-paled her the money. 8 days later we went to get her (7hrs. away...Betsy knew we were coming.) When I saw the mare I was shocked..! skin-over-bones, stuff running from her eyes & vaginal area & pooped runny BLACK stuff..! Had I not paid for her I would have left then & there. We tried to no avail to load the mare, at one point the mare reared & fell on her hounches & wouldn't get up without pressure. I have COPD, bad back & a crippled knee. I don't buy horses
I can't handle by myself but was reassured she was a calm mare anyone could handle..."#2 in calmness...?
She was a #2 till we got to the trailer...then it was an #8..! We were there from 9am to almost noon. When I gave up on trying to load here (Betsy was not there) I asked Mr Weathers to refund my money...he said he would have to ask Betsy & went into the house to call.... NEVER SAW HIM AGAIN. After about 30 min. we put the mare back in the pen, waited in the truck for another 15 while their Grate Dane was jumping on my truck scratching it down to the metal...! We left & She NEVER called me, so when I got home I emailed her & asked for a refund...OMG that was the wrong thing to do. She said I own the mare come get her, if she was not gone by that Fri. she'd start charging $8.00 a day.....After the Holiday, I have tried many times to have someone get her but Betsy tells them I owe a lot of $ & the mare is not going anywhere!!! Just last week I had a shipper lined up to get mare, they contacted her for a pu date. Betsy told them not to waist their time as the mare wasn't going anyplace as I now owed her $1150 & I wasn't gonna pay it.
This mare was sold to me as "calm, #2, BROODMARE sound" but hadn't had a foal since 09, sickly. Now what to do...? Is this the same person ya'll are talkin about...?
