I got a call today from a woman close to Joseph, Oregon. She has taken temporary possession of a horse that the owner wants sent to slaughter.
He is a 12-15 yr old, appears totally gentled & possibly broke to ride. Is sound except extremely underweight & needs attention ASAP. The owner has 15 horses & several cows all together. This guy keeps getting beat up & sounds like kept away from food. He is free to the right home. I believe she'll even help relay him to a new home. The woman says this man is in way over his head but she'd like to see this horse out of there now.
If you can, or know anyone who can take him in, it sounds like once he's rehabed he'll make a great horse. I've asked her to beg the owner for 48 hours to see if I can find anyone to help.
Let me know as soon as possible.
Thanks,
Susan
