Vets, transport, fat horse, Folton MO

Post by Ruffshooter » Thu Aug 29, 2013 3:12 pm

Hey all:
Step Daughter is looking to get a horse from Missouri: An American Saddle Bred. She has been riding these in New England competitions, for 13 years.

She is looking at a 2 year old. He is a big boy. IMO, with very limited horse knowledge, He looks way to fat.. Other than eating too much and not much exercise, Why else would he be fat? His dad is a big boy and he looks a lot like him. this horse is gelded and I would estimate already he is near as big.

I was wondering if anyone could help with a couple things.

Who would be a good, independent, honorable Horse Vet and Farrier in the Folton, Missouri, area; that could do a health inspection. Approximately how much will it cost as well?
Who would be a good dependable honorable transport company to get the horse from Folton, MO to Augusta, Maine?
Approximately, How much will it cost?

Any and all information would be appreciated.
Thank you very much,
Rick
