    Can someone take back an animal they bought for you as a gift?
    Someone bought me a couple horses for a early Christmas gift and now say they want them for their own.
    Can they do that? Take them away from me,after giving them to me.

    If they have receipts with proof that they paid for them legally I think they would have a case in small claims court. It would be your word against their word if it was a gift or not. Unless maybe you could prove that you have been taking care of them and keeping them at a stable or something like that, then maybe you could fight back.

    He don't even have a house to live in now. He is trying to get disability and fighting the sysytem over other legal issues and may go back to jail for no support payments to his ex.I would sure hope that this would all matter.

    Why on earth, with all his problems, would he want two horses?

    Is he an ex or a "good friend"?

    I'm a lover of horses and hope they can stay with you. May I ask, how many do you have now and in which state do you live?

    Hello a:

    No. Tell him to sue you. Block his calls, return his letters, and ignore his emails.
