I HAD SOME SADDLES, AND BRIDLES STOLEN BACK IN 1999; COME TO FIND OUT, THE TEENAGER WAS RUNNING WITH A DRUGGIE, THEY BROKE INTO MY TRAILOR AND STOLE A LOT OF CUSTOM EQUIPMENT. I NEVER GOT ANYTHING BACK, EXCEPT ONE HALTER (WELL ALMOST), IT WAS A GIFT THAT I GAVE TO FRIEND FOR CHRISTMAS.
BUT THE SHERIFFS DEPT KEPT IT FOR YEAR THEN LOST IT!
ANYWAY , WE FINNALLY GOT ONE IN JAIL FOR 10 YEARS (3RD TIME FELON) THE OTHER GOT 5 YEARS PROBATION, AND THE DRIVER GOT 6 MONTHS AND 5 YEARS PROBATION.
IF I HAD THE CHANCE, I WOULD PERSONALLY SHOOT ANY HORSE THIEF, ESPICIALLY SOME ONE THAT SHOT ONE OF MY HORSES. THE IS DISGUSTING THAT WE SHARE A WORLD WITH PEOPLE THAT CARE SO LITTLE FOR OTHER PEOPLES PROPETY AND POSSESSIONS.
I WISH YOU LUCK WITH YOUR, KEEP YOUR EYES AND EARS WIDE OPEN. PEOPLE LIKE THIS WILL MAKE A MISTAKE.

I am so very sorry about your beautiful mare. How on earth could anyone be so cruel as to do that to a helpless animal. My heart and prayers go out to you.

Jeff,
My heart goes out to you on the loss of your beautiful mare. There are some sick people out there. As it says in the Bible "Vengeance is mine says the Lord. I will repay".
Did you file a police report ? I hope these theives are caught swiftly.

I am so sorry to hear about your mare. I had one stolen in July that we never did find, I would like to catch whoever did it, it makes me so mad and I feel so helpless for the horse. Whether the thieves are found or not they will pay in the end.

I am shocked and sorry to hear about your beautiful mare. I can't imagine a human being doing such a thing. My deepest sympathy is extended to you in your loss. She was so innocent. How could this happen? I pray that God eases your pain and you will remember the happy times and she will live forever in your heart.

I am so sorry for your loss of your beautiful horse!! And they call horses animals, the real animals walk on two legs and call themselves PEOPLE!!!! My heart goes out to you and your pain.

I totally agree with Lisa. If parents would teach their children more values and morals sna not spare the rod, the children would not grow up to selfish adults. My heart truly hurts for you. Please post again when they find these horrible "people"

I do believe horse thieves should be hung. Seeing the picture of your mare was almost breathtaking. She has more black on her, but her face is so much like my daughter's Black and white paint Cherokee. They are God's creatures! The relationship between you and your horse is something so many do not understand. You are each other's caretaker, friend, but most of all you are a team. I pray that God eases your pain, and that the ones who abused one of his creatures feel God's wrath.

I know the hurt of losing a partner~Mine was killed by a car~I thought I'd never get over it. We don't , really.But God gives us grace to get through it. It is horrendous what they did to your beautiful mare and partner.I pray for God to comfort you and ease your pain,and that the guilty ones be brought to justice immediately. Rustling (horses and cattle) is still a hanging offense. It is still on the books.Why don't they enforce these anymore? It would stop a lot of this. Would save a lot of heartaches for us horse owners..
God bless you.

So very sorry for your loss.The thieves will one day receive their due justice. Your mare was beautiful.
On September 30,'04,my 9 year old granddaughter and my daughter lost an 11 year old AQHA gelding, 16.1h. Rex had been over back on the hill grazing with 8 other horses, when something (cougar,all signs point to this, recently relocated by the DEC) spooked the horses, sending them pellmell down the side of a hill towards the pond. Rex fell on a sapling tree trunk, leftover by the beavers, impaling him, then sent him headfirst into a swamphole where my husband & I found him. He hadn't come in for supper. Ashley had been riding him on barrels and poles since she was 3, and had just started goat tying with this gentle giant of a horse. My granddaugher put on his headstone "the most loved horse". We feel your pain. Good luck to you. Our horses will always be in our hearts and memories.

That is so horriable, i'm so sorry god bless!!!

My heart goes out to you, people like that don't deserve the air that they breathe.

I am so sorry for your loss, She was a beautiful mare. I just wish the law would let the people take things of this nature into our own hands. The punishment would suit the crime, we would have less criminals, and less taxes to pay to care for these crepes. It just makes me so angry that someone would harm such a beautiful and harmless animal. And to think that if he does get caught we have to pay his FEED BILL!! Its just not right! I hope they catch this freak and throw him in with some ol'jailed cowboys,... word will get out and you can be sure the punishment would suit the crime.
My thoughts and prayers are with you Jeff.. God Bless her and my she rest in peace.
2004/10/09 @ 18:31:03 by Lisa Jo
This is a good example of how cruel people are. I hope you have some control if they find the killer, because frankly I don't think I would just have to kill them.
2004/10/11 @ 21:37:34 by sharon
My heart goes out to you. I can
only imagine the hurt you are
feeling.I hope that the person
responsible is caught and delt
what is deserved so that nobody
else has to go through what you are.

Jeff,
I feel your pain! I'm so sorry that you have to go through this.I did not have a horse stolen but I had a very nice mare that was shot in my own pasture.I can not believe that there are people in this world that can actually do such a thing.I hope that you find who did this to your mare.(I never have).

i am so sorry for your lost.. that makes me so sad
i just wanted to cry when i heard what happened to your horse.
2004/10/18 @ 08:22:43 by Shannon
I am very sorry to hear about your beautiful mare. I have no idea why someone would do such a horrible thing, in fact Im sure that we could never understand. I hope they are caught and punished to the fullest extent of the law...then the good Lord will also extend a greater punishment. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I am so sickened by the loss of your beloved horse. It is beyond me how someone can hurt, abuse, neglect, or kill any living thing....
2004/11/03 @ 10:24:25 by Please check out-Net Posse/Stolen Horse International
What a horrible thing to do to this horse. I hope the person who did, has a similar thing happen to them.
Here is a link for another Stolen horse organization that has had some good results in locating missing or stolen horses. The person who founded this site had her own horse stolen. There were no resources like the internet to help her search. Even the local Sheriff was not able to help much as the horse was taken over state lines. It took her YEARS to recover him, but recover him she did. This site is a result of her dedication to helping other owners prevent their horses from being stolen.
http://www.netposse.com/protectionlist.htmIt would be wonderful if we could unite all of the stolen horse web sites to work together so we could catch the evil persons who do this sort of thing.
Please pass it on.
Thank you

I hate to hear of stuff like this. I am truely sorry, and believe some day the barbarian(s) that did this will also be more than sorry! They will for sure get what is coming to them!! Your mare is so pretty, she looked so precious! Where is this world headed? I wish you nothing but luck in your search for these barbarians, and my heart and prayers go out to your family.
