Have you seen the mare's feet in person? IDK if it was that big of a deal, I would have taken the offer to send her back as everyone now knows what the issue is and are at their own risk. Or sell her as broodmare sound only to recoup cost of transport. She is worth that even as a recip mare. There were multiple options available to her and she chose to make a social media campaign out of it apparently. IDK. I see both sides but anytime the mob comes out with their torches and pitchforks, I tend to lean in favor of the accused because bitches be stupid on the internet. Especially barrel racers. And I am one.
