Someone should be calling animal control before she “has to leave the country”

As with every CL post, quoting before it goes poof:

Hello my name is Latrell and I am the owner of four beautiful horses…2 mares, 1 stallion and 1 3month old fillie. I can no longer afford to feed these animals and have to move out of the country. I want nothing more but for them to go to a loving home where they will be treated with love and kindness, as they were treated here. I love my horses with all my heart and it really hurts me to have to post this ad, but I know that I must do what is best for them. Please, do not call me if your not going to absolutely take good care of them. I am not willing to haggle, so please no hagglers, it’s a set price, so if you are truly interested contact me for personal viewing.

She wants $2500 for these horses, all of which are very bony, protruding hips, spines, and ribs, probably at a 2 or 3 on the body scale, and even the foal is ribby. Someone with a photobucket account want to save these pics before they disappear?

No phone number is given, you would have to contact her via the CL reply feature.

Anyone willing to contact her withOUT scaring her off to get a contact number? :sigh:

Not condoning AT ALL, but there is a lot of military in that area… It’s likely she may actually be leaving the country.

But that’s no excuse for the horses’ current condition. I hope those horses find an upgrade. Especially before they multiply further… :frowning:

I e-mailed the only official e-mail address I could find for Lampassas County. Hope the ad is still up on Monday so they can see it.

She’s been reported to the local animal control…yesterday, I believe.
