But recently a person we know left a halter on a colt he had no business even having and it got caught in the fence and broke it's neck. He didn't find it as he was way too busy getting drunk. Friends found it and had it taken care of. I immediately called the local shelter as his old gelding was skin and bones and still had quite a lot of winter hair growth the middle of June - reckon hadn't been wormed. I only keep track of how much it costs to feed these equine as that is part of our farm expenses. Thanks mj. I guess I had to get onto my soap box too.crazy mule ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14692107552834507171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-129015532073064963.post-21625241911834880002009-09-18T11:52:36.800-07:002009-09-18T11:52:36.800-07:00I have written so many letters to judges in regard...I have written so many letters to judges in regards to various horse abuse cases.

In the past I've tried to help my equine neighbor out.<br />They didn't listen.<br />In fact they moved...took their equines with them.<br /><br />All equines did die. I don't know the cause...they were moved to another county.<br /><br />If I began to tally the $ I spent on my critters,...~~well, let's just say~~ I could have bought a Rolls Royce cheaper.<br /><br />My critters count.<br />And yes we have to watch out for our fellow neighbors who may not always know better.<br /><br />Good post.Val Ewinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11773318159420863765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-129015532073064963.post-21594361834307340662009-09-15T16:53:16.651-07:002009-09-15T16:53:16.651-07:00Beautiful animals.
