Hi, wonder if you could recommend a honest hunter/jumper sale barn in Florida ? Where people are nice and tell you the truth about the horses they have for sale ? Been looking to buy a horse for my daughter for a while and I am a bit tired of spending my time driving to these places only to be let down.
Not a Sales barn per se, but try to contact Bonnie Navin who has a farm in Davie.
She posts on this board (IIRC) as Beenthere.
You can PM for more info.
I benefitted from her generous COTH Giveaway of my WB Sam (known to her as Buns) almost 8yrs ago & found her to be honest.
Assuming she is still in the business, she herself might not have a horse for you, but can certainly point you to someone who will treat you fairly.
What are you shopping for? People can give you better suggestions of who might be a good fit with even a little bit more detail (ie, the recommendations might be different if you are searching for a jumper vs. a hunter, or a ribbon-winner at AA shows vs. a local circuit hunter).
If you are spending money and looking at top horses, Derek Petersen at Legacy Farm. One of the best in the industry and also one of the nicest, most authentic people you could meet.
2dogsfarm is so kind. I am an attorney so I tend to know the good barns and those that have had issues with selling horses like over commissions; bad behavior horses; lame horses etc. PM me where you are located and Ill give you some names of straight shooters
Bonnie, don’t you represent Larry Glefke??
