  This vet blows sales on horses they are supposed to be vetting before even seeing the horse! If they don’t want the work they should turn the client away! Apparently the owner and the owners vet is lying about the vet history! Yes four year old mares can genuinely have no vet history. Hilary Franklin you are being reported Frome Vets ruining livelihoods and reputations, not to mention time wasting, everywhere they go, due to their own incompetence. You’ve cost your customer the chance of owning one of the easiest and straightest four year olds on the market In response to the comment below, I have no idea why you were refused to see the passport, you were dealing with a selling agent and were given my details to contact me directly to discuss the mare and any history (ie had a foal, why she has no vet history (her microchipping went on her dams record, her own foal had his own history due to a compaction and need attention the day he was born, so his microchipping went on his own record - legitimate for most studs. It was an accidental mating, colt got in with the mares, all those mares not already in foal were teased and those that showed in season were jabbed to lose their pregnancy. Itzy didn’t tease in season so wasn’t jabbed so again no vet record for a jab or scanning.) I don’t know how you can say vet history was withheld, my vet said there was no history and had been my vet since 2015, what else did you expect her to say!!!! It’s completely logical that the marking up of the foal would go on to its dam record, rather than create 6-10 records every year for foals that most often aren’t staying. Perhaps Frome Equine don’t have any breeders on their books to realise this is standard practice! Next time, pick up the phone and speak to the owner rather than accuse things are shady and being withheld. It really is your loss though as Itzy will be someone’s horse of a lifetime and Frome equine Vets have now been blacklisted from vetting most local selling yards after this debacle. How can there be inconsistencies in the history when there is NO history. That’s makes zero sense. And by saying there is inconsistency in history is actually accusing someone of lying and falsifying records. You were given exactly what was requested, yet you say it was withheld! Time wasting and costing money whilst a horse is off the market for you to vet, a wasted week on sales livery because the two of you dreamed up so problems that just weren’t there! If you had spoken to me I could have given you any number of previous customers who could reassure you how honest I am, I have heaps and heaps of happy REPEAT customers.
