Story
This is entirely my own fault why I am in this situation. I sold maple to who I thought was my friend to forever home. She then blocked me from everywhere and wouldn't let me have her back. Maple has had a really hard life being passed from auctions to dealers. She's not the easiest of ponys and has alot of quirks. So can never be sold for a child. She's 13.2hh. 1t or 16 years old now. I bought maple from an auction site. I traced her history and her history was not good. Was told she would rear backwards when mounting. If you could mount her good luck. Me being me took her show jumping the next day. She's not for the faint hearted. She has one speed and that's fast. But she is loveable and we got on really well together. I had just lost my pride and joy who broke his pelvis in field and we saved each other. Maple is now with another dealer who has kindly offered to lower her price cut her losses and give maple to me for £300. She will except some tack for £100 so that leaves me with £200 to pay. I will never ever sell her again and if it came down to it I would rather put her to sleep so I know she's save if I could never look after her. I don't want her bei g sold again as she's not the easiest of ponys so I know she would be sold on again and again. To mount her you do need to be quick. But I love her. Her show name with me is my little pony. I know this is begging but I just want to save her like she saved me. The dealer she's at is nice and is looking after her. I know dealers and I don't blame her in anyway as she's doing her job. I just want maple to be safe and loved. The dealer only got her yesterday and poor maple is really nervous. Travelled bad and tried to come over the breast bar in the box. This is not my maple. She's bold and strong and loveable. Xxxx
