DSR FOX TROTTERS R.L WEBB, WWW.FOXTROTTERSONLINE.COM BOUGHT A HORSE THAT WAS NOT WHAT IT WAS MARKETED AS CABOOL, MO
I bought a horse from Mr. R.L Webb of DSR Fox Trotters who was marketed as a great trail horse that anyone with any confidence could ride. She was rated as a 1 on a scale of 1-10 as 1 being the best as far as personality. I was told she had a super sweet personality and would be good for my daughter to ride and take lessons on. Once I got her home I soon found out that she was infested with bot worms, and I mean like nothing I have ever seen before. This is despite being told she was negitive for worms on a vet test. I was also told she had never offered to rear or buck both of which she has done with me. She has most likely never been lunged on a lunge line and when my trainer atempted to lunge her she went beserk and reared continuously, pinned her ears and struck out at her. I was told by my trainer to get rid of her as she was dangerous. My trainer told me to talk with Mr. Webb and have him take her back. He would have nothing to do with me. When I purchased her from him I had him take her to his trainer and put an extra 30 days on her just to make sure she was safe and ready to ride. When I contacted R.L Webb's trainer after her 30 days to ask him questions and talk to him about any bad habbits she had he never returned my text or calls. She is unfortunately not what she was sold as. She is scared to go out on trails by herself and refuses to leave the barn. She rears when she gets lunged which I am working on with another experienced trainer on. She is not safe for any rider as sold as. Buyer be ware of this guy as he is dishonest in my opinion. I am not a begginer ridder but a confident intermediate and this horse down right scares me. She can be very naughty. Will keep working with this mare for now as she is here in Ca. and she is mine but do not trust this man. He also recomended a hauler that had terrible reviews and has a bad reputation among horse haulers for not being good with the horses, not feeding, watering and showing up much later than expected. I looked up his hauler Dannie Glider and confirmed his bad reviews so did not use him. I wish I would have seen some reviews on DSR Fox Trotters and Mr. Webb as it would have saved me quite a bit of trouble.

Facts are facts. Yes the horse was bought sight unseen but I was also told by Mr. Webb that he sells many horses sight unseen. We had a phone conversation early on in my interest on this mare and he told me how he often sells horses with out them being seen first. He also told me how he is one hour away from a major airport seeming to negate the importance of coming. Maybe I took it the wrong way. I have bought several horses over the years from honest people sight unseen with out a vet check and have ended up with nice/ healthy horses. There is no excuse for flat out dishonesty. In fact my vet health papers that were done by DSR/ R.L. Webb's vet has written on it Negitive for worms and the horse was infested! That said vet checked or not that all could have been faked as well since I do not live in his city or know the vets in the area. People need to be honest! If they are not reports get written on them as this one did. Being dishonest about selling will just make it that much harder on those people who are trying to do honest business via the internet. Oobveously the rebuttal comes from DSR as noone else would know about any lack of a vet check or sight unseen purchase. Do not try to make less of my complaint or me by bringing up spelling errors and criticizing the way I write. If you are so worried about your reputation that you have to take me down a few notches for my spelling then I suggest you look at the real cause of your troubles here. You were very dishonest about the mare you sold me and it is now coming back to you.

For buying a horse unseen, not getting the horse vet tested and riding the horse BEFORE you bought the horse. I refuse to read a report by someone who cannot spell, use proper paragraphs and cannot use common sense!!
I have bought horses all my life and the first thing I do is SEE THE HORSE!! Then I RIDE THE HORSE! Then I VET CHECK THE HORSE!!
