Re: [RC] Coggins testing - D'Arcy Demianoff-Thompson

<If you really feel that way, make up 
a contract that they will buy the horse back if he has the virus.
But think about it, what are the chances of this horse having the 
virus? Really folks?>

This is a very slippery slope to enter into a sales contract with.  First, if 
the seller is in financial trouble and relying on every dime they bring in to 
keep a float good luck trying to get them to 'buy' the horse back.  You would 
have to take them to court to get them to comply.  In the meantime you would 
have a horse on your property with the disease.  Which in of itself would be a 
REALLY bad idea.  Second, if there aren't any financial problems and they do 
take the horse back.  How many areas will have been contaminated inbetween and 
back and forth?  Third, why would anyone take the risk?  What sense does that 
make?  Lastly, if you think for one minute the chances are slim to none.  You 
have not been reading many periodicals, internet news, The Horse, and/or 
reading Ride Camp about the numbers that have been infected.  The areas of the 
country that have EIA positive cases have been climbing at a steady pace for 
the last three months.  It would be a really good idea do
some homework here!
