Ahhh. Where do I start?! Bloody yards! Which I had my own place at times I really do!!
A while ago one of the yard horses had a nasty cut on its leg. I was getting the vet down for sox and ginger, and looking after the liveries horse as they couldn't get down. I spoke to the owner on the phone after sending them photos. The owner told me to 'cold hose it and get them to check it out/ look out it' Which I did. The vet came, treated it. Job done. I updated the owner, no issues. However a few days to a week after I was informed that the livery 'apparently' never gave consent for the horse to be treated and therefore I would be paying for the call out and examination for the horse. Though the owner would pay for the drugs ( Antibiotics and bute). I was told today I owe the vets £70. I told the owner I will pay for the call out fee however I wont be paying for the
examination when I had verbal consent from them.
This is really frustrating me! If they were that against having the vet. Why the f**k didn't they bollock me that day when I rang to tell them how it went? If they didn't want the vet!?! Why would they agree to pay for the drugs? Why would they leave it a few days to tell me?!
Also if someone told me they didn't want a vet I wouldn't have got a bloody vet!! I aren't like that!
The latest trick their trying to pull is they aren't registered with the vets. If that's the case ( highly doubt) Why did the vet treat the horse? If they aren't registered they have to pay the full amount upfront.
