    [RC] Racing Arabians/Lang Park - Ridecamp Guest


    Katey Gies heart@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
    A few years ago I got a 2 year old gelding from a rescue that had come from Lang Park Arabians.  He was a nice horse, had a great disposition and was quite tall. I started riding him when he was 4 and he was doing great, but then kept coming up lame.  I had him xrayed and found he had an avulsion (sp) fracture.  It was suddenly clear to me why he had been dumped as a killer horse.  I liked him so much, I considered going to get another horse off their ranch, but couldn't bring myself to give money to a farm who sold their horses for slaughter since I am opposed.  I gave the horse away as a companion and ended up out of money to get another horse anyway.
