    Location: North Central Iowa Land of white frozen grass | The ex ownes the horse. Point blank. I would load the horse up and go over to her house and give her 2 choices. Sign a Bill Of Sale or leave the horse. Everyone in this drama needs to grow up and be adults. If this does not get resolved now it is only going to end up in litigation or divorce court. Even I can see this coming and my wife says that I am blind. |

I agree... shouldn't have gotten to this point. Playing a game right now.. haven't gotten a response from her regarding the bill of sale... if we don't hear anything by tomorrow I'll have him haul the horse to her house when he gets home. I'm trying to give this horse a chance. It's a sorry sad situation... for the horse mainly. .. from this point I'm staying out of it she won't speak to me anyway apparently. |

I feel like I failed the horse and my stepdaughter by pushing for ownership... had I kept my mouth shut she wouldn't be doing this. Sad... she'd rather have the horse dead than give over ownership... I'll get up early and give him a good meal before they come get him. |

     Location: OH. IO | I would be ripping hubby a new one for putting me in a situation like this.I would also note it down.Then when your stepdaughter wants to live with you,he can remember his vicious ex and what THEY did .uggghhhh.NO WAY SHOULD AN EX CONTROL THE OTHERS LIFE LIKE THIS.TELL HER YOU FOUND A BUYER. Are you SURE this horse has papers??buyer will pay 500.00 dollars.ONLY WITH PAPERS AND A BILL OF SALE. (Then I'll send ya 500 bucks)and you keep him.lol |

| I know... my hubby was just trying to make his daughter happy.. I get that... I can't fault him there. He's almost as bummed out as I am right now.. I could hear the disgust in his voice on the phone.. she claimed she "found" someone to take him... we offered to take him with a bill of sale! That's all. .. I know where he's going .. to a sale .. |

    Location: North Central Iowa Land of white frozen grass | I have a feeling that the ex does not have papers on this horse to give. I kind of think that maybe the sister actually owns this horse and maybe the ex has not paid her for it. There is more to this than just giving a Bill of Sale or signing papers. |

Can your hubby call her sister and get the real story??I kinda agree with BSHauler here too |

You might be right... all I know is my husband bought this horse when they were still married .. in the divorce she took this horse with her.. she sold everything else except this horse... we offered to buy him while he was still sound and she wanted an outrageous amount of money for him... my husband refused because he'd already paid for the horse once. Don't blame him there... then he got hurt and starved so she brought him here... it really doesn't matter at this point.. she'd rather the horse be dead than give us ownership. Not much of anything I can do now.. |

If the sale is close to you I would send a friend to buy him (because any one can pull a horse from a sale if they don't like the buyer) and bring him home. At a sale he won't be worth much. |

I have no idea where the horse is going... |

| You can call the local sale barns and ask if they have a such and such horse. Or if you know any cattle or horse buyers, you could ask them to pick him up for you.
Just wanted to add, our sale barn manager would buy animals for individuals when asked.

I'm hoping to get a little more info from my stepdaughter when she comes over this afternoon. I really appreciate everyone's input here. |

| Some strange guy came and picked up the horse today and I saw that he had the papers given to him. My stepdaughter brought them in and they were sitting on my counter. They were outside loading horse. This was an act of pure spite. It's done and over with... I hope for the best for him. Moving on. |

Yeah, I get the control part, but an animal's life and a little girl's heart are on the line. She sounds like a controlling, selfish person and I just can't understand those people.
This^^^
And I can't imagine hurting your own child on purpose (for heaven's sake) just to be a mean, spiteful individual. I continue to be amazed at people. . . You reap what you sow. . .
You were wonderful to at least try to help the horse and also not hurt the daughter.
