Welcome!.... from Northern Wisconsin. I too am new to the board and have been lurking for months. Even though there are some things that happen on this board that I do not agree with, I continue to come back. This board is very eduacational and pretty much everyone will help you if they can. I have been raising and breeding big horses for about 20 years now, and new to minis, but I still continue to learn from all the wonderful people on this board. I would love to even find a mentor that is close to me so that I can learn even more and make a new friend to talk "horse talk".
I agree that people should try to learn the whole story before voicing their opinions, instead of assuming the worst. I also think that it would be very appropriate for those that flamed Bob, to do a public appology to him on this board. No one is perfect, and I think we have all learned now that Bob loves his little ones more than we realized and that he wasn't intentionally being stupid or cruel. He did his best and when his best wasn't good enough, he found the help he needed.
Bob, if you are reading this, even though I do not know you personally, please come back to this board. I have read all of your posts/stories, and love all of your pictures, and believe it or not, you have inspired me. There are many of us on this board that would love to continue to hear from you amd even learn from you. You have more friends on here than you think.

Welcome to the Forum
The "High School" thing never ends.....heck I still deal with it at work too. One day you are in with the "IN" crowd. Then the next you say something and you are not "Cool" anymore.....oh well.... :bgrin

Hello from freezing New Hampshire,nothing could get heated up here today!!!!
But people have strong feelings and I think many were shocked and scared for the mare. I don't think anyone wanted to hurt Bob personally just maybe were shocked to see her and felt surprised he did not see how thin she was.
With minis it can happen and quickly because of their long hair.It can be deceptive. I also think many (myself included) think very highly of him doing what was right for the mare instead of thinking as many would have
only of his pride.
I think many wonderful lessons have again been learned by a lot of people.
I think many more people will be running their hands over their minis ribs now.
So this is a case of people on the forum helping to educate us all.
you wil find the people on here are wonderful and so full of knowledge about our little ones it wil amaze you.
Welcome
Bonnie

Welcome to the world of minis.
One thing you can depend on with this forum.........there's never a dull moment.
I gotta add that I admire your willingness to join the forum on what some would consider the "wrong side" of a heated issue. And for what it's worth........I agree with you 100%.
