I get them too….4/5 a day sometimes , i dont even open them , i delete them straight away…
To some owners and I stress the word SOME their horses are no more than a buisness venture, for whatever disipline they were bought for, there is NO particular love of the horse…When it is winning or being placed the horse is Wonderful, once that stops for whatever reason then unfortunatley the future could look bleak…You would hope that potential owners are checked so to avoid horses ending up on the scrap heap destined only for a short life of misery untill the bullet ends it….
Off all the poor horses, ponies etc that have been discovered at this farm how many of them were sold knowing what their fate may be….Were I live we are the most populated place in Great Britain for horses , and I personally know of owners who have sold their horse/pony who is no longer required ! for next to nothing, and have been well aware that it was going for meat..
I bought my horse when he was rising 5 , he is 17 now , we dont compete seriously anymore but if he suddenly could not be ridden again or in deed I couldnt ride again he would be retired and kept with me till he died..and their are thousands of owners who would do the same, but you will always have the heartless eliment owners , and the dispicable buyer as we have seen unfolding….
Apologises for going on but I am so angry and upset by what has happened ….
