YAY! I am soooooo happy for all of these horses, and thanks for letting us know how they are doing. We'll be watching for future updates as well, and again, THANK YOU to EVERYONE that helped the horses!
:
Now if any of you wish to bash me, go right ahead. I have big shoulders. I just thought it was important to not hide our head in the sand on some of the issues these minis have. It is going to be a long and difficult road to get these horses back to full health and that is the truth!!!Sorry I did not get the pics sent. We had a bad storm after I sent you the first email and it burned up my modem on my commuter so I am writing this on my son's right now. I will send them to you as soon as I get my PC going again.Marty wanted me to post pics of them on the forum but right now I really do not want to deal with any one who is going to bash me ,or CMHR.They are not seeing what is in my barn right now.Boo is walking on his pasterns because his hoofs are sooo long,he looks like he will have long term leg issues.You cannot tell in the pics on how bad off he really is. I do not think he would have lasted the month.The mare is just as bad also.They would have died I know. They are really weak,walk real slow.head's hung altho they do raise there heads when they see me and seem to know that I am there to help them .I am crying as I am writing you ,they are so bad looking,as far as helping on Boo Contact CMHR and let them know .I went and bought more wormer today and some new brome hay for them .I will send you pics as soon as I can.If you want to go on the forum for me and post what I have told you ,you can. I am so up set and mad right now ,they did not deserve this,I just need time to get my emotions in check .. I hope that you can adopt boo. You would love him.
You bet ya!We're all here for the long haul, right?
Danielle I appreciate you updating us on Boo. Poor little fella; but at least he has a chance now, and that's saying a bunch. Of course it isn't what we wanted to hear but we've all been way too involved to not want to know the bad news as well as the good.
A very special thanks to his foster mom!! She obviously is doing her very best for him.
I'll respectfully address my next comment to the BOD of CMHR.
It sounded, from Marty's latest update, like something went badly wrong on Sunday and if you can't share details....so be it. I'm not trying to pry or get information you can't divulge. But I, for one, was very disappointed when I noticed that both threads about the Kansas Minis have totally disappeared. If the pictures weren't so fresh my mind and my trip to the farm so recent, I'd almost think it was just all a bad dream. You asked us for help. We stepped up and helped. Please don't shut us out now. If it's over, tell us so. If it isn't, or if there is still hope, I'm sure I'm not the only one who would like to know.
As a total observation I think we have to accept we dont need to know everything CMHR does and or says in respect to this rescue. Seems they are almost in a no win situation- told not to air everything and all the details or anything that makes the owner look "bad" and then of course us wanting to know the details. I can see how it is a catch 22 for all involved.
Bottom line is that thank goodness some of those horses are in new homes and getting better I am grateful to those that were able to step up and make it happen
Absolutely!!!Are Lays Potato Chips a good analogy?
Im sure mary lou can speak for herselfbut those threads were removed because there was nothing positive in them and they were going straight down hill. The bickering and fighting is not going to help Vern or the horses.
As Lisa said it really is a catch 22. If CMHR posts people get mad. If they dont post people get mad. It has nothing to do with hiding anything.
Im sure when Ginny has had time to sleep and check on her own horses etc she will come give a statement. But please be patient. Shes been through a really rough time and I have no doubt she needs to catch up on some sleep and just deflate. As most of you know this is emotionally and physically exhausting to go through something like this.
