I had a hard time finding out where to start my quest to let people know about this business and it owner Raymond Cannady so I thought I would start here.

I purchased a horse from Raymond Cannady who claims to be the a trainer and sells horses in July 2023 - immediately after I purchased my horse, everyone noticed that she was not walking right and called her lame. When I purchased her Mr. Cannady said if I ever have any issues with her to let him know and he will take her back and I trusted this man who claimed to be so experienced in horse training and selling horses. I trusted this man that he was selling me a great horse - only to find out he was deceitful about her and her health.

My trainer examined my horse and told me that she was sure there some issues with him and I contacted Mr. Cannady to come look at the horse with my trainer to go over what she thought was wrong with her - I am not as experienced to know what was wrong and be able to identify the things they saw - he agreed and after two plus weeks of trying to get him to the stables, he did agree that she had some minor issues but claimed it must have happened after I took possession of her. I emailed him and told him that I wanted him to take her back as I am not knowledgeable enough to keep a horse that might have some issues where she may not be able to be ridden nor did I want the expense of her if I cannot ride her.

His response to me was the most foul and disrespectful email I have ever received from anyone - he said it was all my fault and that she was fine when I bought her, even though I had her approx 2 months at that point.

So, in order to make sure I was accurate in my trainers observation, we took her to a vet for a full exam and X-rays so I could know what was wrong with her.

As soon as we got the vet's office, he immediately recognized her and said he has had her in his clinic before - he pulled her records for us to see

Less that one week prior to me purchasing her, she was in the same clinic, xrays and a full exam was done - she was found to have a lot of damage to her front left leg and the xrays and report were not good - he gave her a 4 out of 10 soundness which isn't the worst but definitely not what I wanted in a horse and not for the price I paid for her

The point of my review is to let people know the type of horse seller he is, so no-one has to go through what I have gone through with him and with a sweet horse -

Do your research and get any horse you plan on buying from him checked out thoroughly before you buy - not fair to the buyer or the horse.

This company is sneaky and crooked - charged for things they shouldn't have and it was a fight to get it resolved - Manager Jeremiah Kelley is the worst kind of person to do any business with - he is rude and degrading and I will never do business with Cintas ever again and will discourage on every platform available to me, anyone who is looking at hiring them!
