Location: Arizona | Hope this is allowed, just sharing this unfortunate situation for the horse owner. I know any donations would be greatly appreciated!

As a side note, please make sure anyone you hire to haul your horse is properly insured. This is sad proof of what can happen when they are not, and there are far too many "professional" horse haulers advertising out there who don't actually have any coverage for the animals they're transporting.

| The shipper should be paying up for the mistake their hired driver did by using an uninsured trailer without their consent. Was this a commercial shipper or just someone hauling horses on the side. They should have quickly refunded the shipping cost and paying up for the rest to avoid getting sued, which could cost them much more.
I know this Horse Owner is in a time constraint, waiting on gofundme might take some time. Most banks will do a signature loan for that amount. At least she would have the cash to get the surgery done. |

Location: The best kept secret in TX | You can bet I would be taking the shipper to court. You can also bet that I wouldn't have to pay a dime for any legal fees or damages cause by this shipper.
Always do your homework. If they're insured, cross check. Don't just take their word.
Prayers sent to the owner of Pesto. |
