[RC] Northern Calif. horses need home..... - Karen SullivanI hate to post this stuff and embarassed for my county....but here is it...last week 22 horses were confiscated from a breeder in Upper Lake, neglect and starvation. I heard the breeder voluntarily turned over the 22 horses and was allowed to keep the remaining 23......but yesterday Animal Control found another 20 that were hidden....and in worse condition than the ones listed below. Perhaps there might be some endurance prospects; the mustang babies I saw looked just fine (mothers in horrible shape), one Arab and many, many SSH and TWH. Anyway, I cannot give any more info, although I have seen the horses. None are trained or have been handled. They can be viewed at the Lake County Animal Care and Control, and sealed bids are being taken until May 14. Please call Lake County Animal Care and Control for more info. at 707-263-0278. Lake County is about 3 hours north east of San Francisco, and 2 hours northwest of Sacramento. I had thought the breeder was mainly raising SSH, and was standing a buckskin pinto stallion, but there is one Arab, the mustangs and some crosses. As far as horses listed below; some of the numbers are the same....so don't know why, just copied it all out of the paper. I sincerely hope all the horses go to good homes and would think a better chance of that out of this county. BTW, many of the SSH listed as buckskin look more Champagne color to me....I have no idea what the additional 20 horses are yet. Karen ___________ 8 mos. buckskin pinto TWH gelding, min bid $250.

A decent set of shoes and a 15 minute dismount here and there will help. ~ Jon K.
