Games Trainers Play: The Florida Horse Saga

It really is like a train wreck where you don’t WANT to look, but you can’t help it.

And ditto to the poster who said head desk head desk head desk

I do hope this gets saved in the Favorites though when it is all said and done with the title “How NOT to sell a horse.”

“…I told her what to do to change the problem and she told me she was going to work on it. This has taught trainer2 a lot, too…”, trainer1[/QUOTE]

Fail. Trainer 2 is obviously not qualified to be training the rider on this horse.

I thought the trainer was in Ky???[/QUOTE]

No, my friend goes to school in KY, her trainer is in IL.

Eponacowgirl, My son got a punching bag for christmas, would you like to borrow it? :wink:

This story just gets worse and worse. If I was in the area, and had the cash, I would have wired the owner the money, and gone to pick up the horse. He looks like a nice fellow, and wouldn’t be a bad guy to have in the barn, and wouldn’t be hard to re-sell. It seems no matter what this girl does, she’s still going to keep getting her arse handed to her on a silver platter. sigh

Anyone else amazed that with over 57,000 views “trainer1” OR “trainer2” haven’t made an appearance online? Of course that would be pretty stupid on their part and so far their plan to work she seller over is going spendidly. eye roll

I am mightily impressed that Epona still refers to owner as her “friend.”

I’m impressed that Epona still talks to the owner/friend! :lol:

Where’s good ole’ Lurch when you need to hear that G.R.O.A.N…?? :rolleyes: Here it is. Don’t click…just copy/paste. http://www.fortunecity.com/lavender/tombstone/839/addams/AF_groan.wav

Me too Beastie! But then again, I watch American Idol so I like trainwrecks!
Okay all Floridians! Find out the next show she’s going to be at and start doing the hunter trainer yell over the arena fence thing to her!
Your friend’s parents cut the ties? Methinks she gets herself into these messes and expects to get bailed out. And honey, you’re next on her list! She’s a leech and you’re the unsuspecting swimmer in stagnant water in your birthday suit.

keep busy and try not to obsess about it and it will soon be over[/QUOTE]

It sounds more like a pap smear than a horse deal…sorry, I couldn’t help myself! :smiley:

Emearse yourself in work, keep busy and try not to obsess about it and it will soon be over, *trainer1

OH HELLLLL NO… :mad:

Seriously, we need to enact ESG’s plan and go get the da*n horse a’ready. I’d walk in and hand them a bill of sale and say it IS over. Buh-bye.
I found some barfing icons but can’t get them to post–lol!

I’m with everyone else-- I just can’t make myself stay away! :o

Everybody, sing it with me! “I’ve got some oceanfront property in Aaahrizoonaaahh; from my front porch you can seeee the seeaaa…” :lol:

I knew this girl was stoooopid, but I wasn’t even close as to how stooopid. Scary. :dead:

She deserves whatever she gets. Which is, in addition to everything else, is to lose you as a friend, epona. Again, I’m amazed you’ve hung on this long. I’d have cut stooopid friend loose about page three. :no:

Stab me with a fork, I’m done.

No, no, no, honey - stab her with the fork. Might get her attention. :rolleyes:

BwwaaaHaaaaaHaaaaaa! :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

So what happened to the story from trainer2 about how horse was bucking and refusing all the jumps at the show the pictures are from? (I guess this confirms that #198 is the horse in question.) The trainers aren’t very good at dissembling - they can’t keep their versions in synch. OTOH, eponafriend appears to be very good at swallowing whatever she is told… and she still trusts trainer1? This is beginning to sound like an abused wife going back to the beater.

Is trainer2 younger than eponacowgirl? or just incompetent at any age?

(perhaps this is how viewers get hooked on tv soap operas.)

And don’t you know, little miss I-have-my-head-up-my-butt will be the first to cry foul about how she’s been treated. :mad:

Next thing we’ll be hearing is from the friend, about how trainers take advantage of clients. I don’t know about anyone else, but I’ve never, ever seen anyone beg to be taken advantage of, like this girl does. :eek:

Abso-fruitbatting-lutely unbelievable. Epona, I’m about to stab myself with a fork, in an attempt to stay away and not read any more. Sheesh. :dead:

Amazingly, Trainer2 is DOUBLE my age. Of course, I’m just a young whippersnapper myself. :wink:

I’m currently accepting clients with large pocketbooks, I don’t put horses in kimberwickes and my kids learn to jump without hands. cough
