Okay, thanks for the link - my dribble is in.
Do a search on the Warren TBâs that were saved by Tranquility Farm. Those horses nearly lost their life because someone didnât trust the experienced rescues involved, and contacted the person keeping the horses directly, before the horses could be safely moved from the property. Luckily, Tranquility Farm and everyone involved was able to save all 46 horses.

Looking for our mare
Gerry picked up a mare from us in May. I last spoke with her in July. I now cannot reach her and just stumbled across the information about her horses being seized. Obviously, weâre very concerned about our mare.
Iâve never been in this situation before. Any ideas or suggestions as to how best to locate this mare would be appreciated. I left a message with the SPCA this morning and am awaiting a response.
This mare was being âleasedâ from us but we did supply her with the papers. Her name is WeWeC and she is a bay with a white blaze and a bad right knee. I do have pictures. I really hope she is OKâŠwe could pick her up this weekendâŠI have a bad feeling about this.
Thanks in advance for your help.
The Fingerlakes SPCA would probably have an ideaâŠalthough I donât know if theyâve identified each and every horse yet with that many. Seems she had leases, boarders and her own.
Some of the folks on this thread will probably have a good idea on how to find your horse. Best of luck finding herâŠbest wishes that sheâs healthy.

I gave the contact info to this poster, hopefully they can find her mare and return her.
Real quick, how did you guys find the name of the person the horses were seized from? I didnât see it on the press release? I had several friends in the area back when I lived on the East!
It hasnât been released yet as charges are pending. Technically no one is supposed to know who it is yet so either you need to read between the lines and figure it out or wait until they release it.
She also happens to be someone who posted about her farm on various forums.
And unfortunately, if the papers are in the hands of the person you leased to shame on you. I always held my horses papers. Copies were supplied, but originals BIG NO NO.
Without papers there is no way to prove ownership. The Jockey club recognizes the horse owner as the person with the foal papers, unless a particularly good bill of sale is present between the person that still holds the papers and the person claiming ownership.
And PLEASE everyone that is wondering about this and that horse⊠Realize that with that many horses seized, there is NO POSSIBLE WAY that the SPCA can identify them all right now. They are working on their case, so idâing the horses is the least of their concerns right this second. If you legitimately own a horse, youâll get a phone call from the SPCA. If you gave the horse to the person involved, unfortunately there is nothing that can be done to get the horse back. (unless the horse is eventually adopted out)
Just my two cents.
Bumping for help for these horses. Theyâre all in foster care and the organization that placed them is in dire need of cash, blankets, first aid supplies, feed, and hay to offset the costs to be borne by the caregivers. Since these horses were in imminent danger of dying when seized, several people stepped up to take more than one horse (in some cases, many more) and could use our help.
Nice. I appreciate the input, however the reason we gave her the papers were because she had good references, and if she had wanted to give her a good, forever home, that would have been OK with us. Now that we know that the exact opposite came to be true (and we werenât the only ones duped), weâll do everything in our power to bring her home. I promise you, with the documentation we do have, if that horse is still alive, weâll get her. Not that I anticipate people fighting over her â sheâll never be sound for riding again â but we loved her and cared for her and will continue to do so.
I have been diligently contacting everyone I can think of and sending out very good, recent pictures of her. If sheâs out there, she will be found.
Not sure if I sent the donation to the right place, but theyâll know what it was for. And bumping!!!
For anyone who wants to know the farm and owners, go to Fugly. Itâs todayâs post.
What is fugly and how do you get there? 
Just do a search on âfuglyâ, the site will come up. There are a few photos as well.
Good luck finding your mare.
Those poor horses - they look horrific⊠I will be sending my donation as well.
Please keep us posted on their condition and recoveryâŠ
Jingling for them allâŠ
I have now donated⊠I hope it helps.
WOW, that is all I can say. I know it hit our area papers today (Ithaca Journal) and has been on the news too. The Ithaca Journal is a Ganett paper so are a few others so itâs plastered around here this part of NYS.
I know for us, we do extensive background checks on folks, we have called animal control (to see if they have had charges against them), looked up their vets through the State Department of Education to see their standing and so forth before the horse has ever left our farm.
I had one woman, it was not even my horse we were finding a home for but the filly was on my farm, who lied about her vet, I did some checking and the vet was not even licensed in NYS (and was practicing!). You would not believe the stories I have been told by some People and when I confront them that they are lying (through the checks we do) then they get mad at me. Well as far as I am concerned they can kiss my you know what.
Last but not least we ALWAYS transport the horse and my husband knows that if he has the hair stand up on the back of his neck, he does not even unload the horse, just turns around and comes back home with it.
This farm is not located that far from us. I wish we could take a few in to foster but we are full. I will however send along some funds to help. Having rescued a few horses in my day from deplorable conditions, it can be a large proces for recovery.
My heart goes out to those owners who entrusted their horse to this person. We have a woman less than 10 miles from us who is hoarding horses, including stallions and other animals and the town and animal control are doing NOTHING.
