How could people do this to their horses? I really hope they all find great homes. I wish I was able to take one, but since I live in CA that would be very hard.
This is so sad! I'm glad someone is doing something for these mistreated horses! I bought a neglected/abused arabian gelding in December and I have never regreted it for one second! He loves to learn and try new things and he's so sweet and gentle and never in a bad mood! If it was at all possible for me to take one of these horses i would! Please someone give them the home they deserve!!!
Wow - terrible. What a sweet face in the picture. Almost made me cry. Thanks for spreading the word. Hopefully they'll all get good homes.
So... The kill buyers, or anyone buy the horses from the auction.. But the rescues have to wait until after the auction, then provide references? Something is messed up there... I guess at least he said $250 bids on them. Hopefully they're all saved.
Ummm.........they think thats going to stop the kill buyers? Yeah.right. I'd like to talk to that judge. When will we learn?! HOPE THE GET GOOD HOMES!
I can almost bet these horses will make it to the slaughter buyers. Why not let the rescue centers take them first then have an adoption day? Its a shame that people either don't care about their animals or are just to stupid to have them in the first place.
my family and I are expectiong on attending this auction, He hope to bring home about 5 of these horses. My daughter trains hunter/jumper, and she has been talking about this event for 2 weeks. She said today that these horses are going to be so happy to be in a forever home. I believe that most of these horses will be going to a good home as you can find a horse around here for much less then 250.
My instructor was planning to go to this & I tried to convince my parents for us to go too since we ride at a dressage mainly arabian facility, but we can barely afford to pay for one horse & now we might be getting a second one. I have to work at the barn to pay for my lessons but I would work two jobs if it meant that I could help give one of these sweethearts the second chance they deserve
I think that judge should be the one auctioned. Poor judgement! Soumds like he wants the horses to go to kill buyers. Boo!!!!
