RE: [RC] Rescues - was Slaughter/Breeding, a subject JT is ticked off has run too long :) - heidiTiffany, you were NOT on the receiving end of the phone calls.
Furthermore, the horse did NOT have "genetic issues"--and Roseann
bloody well knew that. (At least SHE was
completely honest about that part--I don't know what your point is
to try to perpetuate that fantasy.)
Additionally, you missed the initial point entirely that made me so
angry about the whole deal--which was that AHRN didn't even HAVE
control of the horse when I first contacted Roseann--and
she REFUSED to share the information about his whereabouts.
That did not smack of "rescue" to me in the slightest--it was more like
just plain obstruction of a breeder trying to do right by their
horse. It was the self-righteous "judge-and-jury" act over a
horse that WAS NOT EVEN IN THE RESCUE'S POSSESSION that was IMO
unconscionable, automatically assuming that the breeder would be a "bad
guy."
Suffice it to say, it was an experience that would put ANY breeder
off of ever wanting to do it again--and I think that is the take-home
message here. I persist in posting in response to your posts in
hopes that others involved in rescue will learn from that experience,
and realize that they ARE often a part of the problem that keeps
breeders from trying to do right by their own.

Actually I was, and was working actively with that rescue at the time that it happened.
