The same thing happened to me. . .A jump trainer I had once HATED my little paint (and granted he was an ASS, but I loved him). She just constantly made snide remarks about him and tried to get me to sell him. I didn't train with her again for about a year and in that time I did sell him (He mentally wasn't doing what I wanted anymore and he got the PERFECT home) and I ended up riding my sisters Selle Francais. First lesson I had with the trainer again she remarked "Oh its so nice to see you riding a real horse!"
