Exclamation Kansas Farm-Starving Horses Need Help



These horses are in need. I was e-mailed by the Northeast Miniature Horse Club president who I adopted Lucy through.

For contact information please PM me and I will give the information. Even if you can just donate something would be greatly appreciated.

This was all over the local news tonight (KS/MO border) the fox affiliate had an interview with the dude, what a nut-job. Truly loco.

Our local news isn't that thecnically savvy, but this is pretty much a transcript: Item View Display

Idiot. If you can't take care of yourself why do you need 100 horses?

Are they being adopted out or what is going to happen to them?

That is sooo sad.

How many are there total?

The guy who owns them is 71 and has owned horses for more then 40 years. He has over 100 horses and the 30+ goats there on his property and he reliesed 12 to the rescue!!! Yes, I said 12. Like that is going to help?
Anyway, if this man ahs owned hroses for that many years, he should have realized long ago that he was in trouble and STOPPED BREEDING THEM!!
DON'T BREED MORE THEN YOU CAN FEED!!!!!

Sorry, I am just so upset about this.

Thank god they are trying to do something! Sounds like the little old man might be a touch senile and is in over his head. I feel better knowing they have taken the worse ones away to give them care they need.
