I don’t think it is fair to just keep passing teenage mares, that haven’t concieved in a few years, that keep having issues, to the next poor unsupecting fool who then spends another few thousands on trying "one more time[/QUOTE]
Emerald Kitty is a 2003 mare who had a foal in 2011. Are you sure it is the same mare?
Big beautiful grey mare?

The person whose name has since been removed told me that she had a falling out with Jill because Jill wanted her to lease a mare in her name because the mare owner would not deal with Jill. She also told me that Jill has been telling people my filly was damaged permanently at birth from the CPR and could not have a performance career which needless to say came as news to me. She told me I was free to post the above if I kept her name out of it which I have. Take it all for what it is worth.[/QUOTE]
I’ll be happy to take your worthless filly. Purely out of the kindness of my heart so you won’t be burdened with her…
After the thread went off on a bit of a tangent recently, to play it safe, Mod 3 removed some references to another party tangentially related to this situation. We do allow references to criminal activity if charges are filed, of which Mod 3 was unaware existed in that situation. We also allow users to share negative or positive experiences in dealing with businesses.
We don’t want this already convoluted situation complicated by accusations of blatant criminal activity not supported by charges filed, but we do allow opinions/experiences involving poor business practices or interactions with businesses.
Thanks and sorry for any confusion ~

I hope someone that is “in the know” keeps the thread on HGS updated and on the first page.[/QUOTE]
That thread has now been closed.

Thank you, although IMO Stacey Farnham (who was convicted of horse-related criminal activity) is not tangentially related to Jill Burnell, as Stacey has leased (or attempted to lease) mares from people only for the mares to end up on Jill’s website advertized as owned by Jill. There is clearly a connection between Jill and Stacey that is more than a tangent.
By tangent I was referring to some of the comments re: unsubstantiated potential issues related to her tack store employment, etc.
Mod 3 made some edits beyond what was necessary last night, being unfamiliar with the situation, which is why I posted to clarify that it’s fine to discuss business-related issues.
Again, sorry for the confusion.
Mod 1
Having been on this forum for such a long time I admire your work Mod 1 and I think it is not such a bad issue that Mod 3 maybe deleted a name too many. We have had in this forum such a bad times with moderators in previous years - You are handling especially this explosive thread in a very very good way !
Thank you for your work !

after I got hate mail from her previous owner about “giving her back to those a*(&**hole hunter breeders” and found out about the Jill/Stacey/Gen circle of trouble, I said that I had her euthanized so that people got that it wasnt any of their business if they didn’t actually own the horse. The horse is fine, she is being taken care of, and she doens’t deserve to be passed from bad situation to bad situation. It doesn’t matter if she is bred for hunters, or eventers, or a mule…she is a broodmare, she was dumped once already and since her brain is fried, if she is no longer fertile, that is ultimately her fate. I don’t think it is fair to just keep passing teenage mares, that haven’t concieved in a few years, that keep having issues, to the next poor unsupecting fool who then spends another few thousands on trying “one more time” The economy of feeding a barren mare for 16 months and racking up a couple thousand in vet expenses in California…well, I don’t know anybody that has that much money. Thats how people end up in court, foreclosed on, owing vets and feed stores and shippers and breed associations…see where this is headed???[/QUOTE]
GREAT post!
Yes Mod 1 thank you for your work and fairness…this thread really needs to stay open…
Ownedbyhim- once again I wish for facebook’s “like” button on CoTH-well spoken!
Has this thread set a record for number of posts yet?
Not even close! You can sort each forum by posts and views from the home page.
A couple more weeks, though, and there won’t be any contest!
EquineDriver - how’s it going? More folks coming forth?

yes, it does
While I am sure Equinedriver is working hard, I sure hope there is someone that is the backup person who is also getting the info…
while i mean no offense to equine driver - what if s/he was a plant?
i learned a long time ago to not put all eggs in one basket - so perhaps someone might want to volunteer to be the “second” just in case?
Then we are no worse off then before this thread. I doubt that is the case but even if it is this thread has definitely raised awareness.

Yup and the thread over on HGS is back up and running ;). Kudos to ALL of the moderators working to keep this on topic and on the radar. Let’s hope it works as a public service announcement. Inasmuch as we’ve heard from several mare owners that stated this year (2012) Jill stated that they needed to vaccinate their mares before breeding to Redwine, our diligence in educating the public AND holding her feet to the fire assisted in making her comply to the proper protocols. So, education definitely DOES work :D!

Equine Driver a “plant”? 
Equine Driver has been a member of this forum since 2003.
I do understand your desire for back up, it can’t hurt…
However, I think that your worries about E.D. being a “plant” are a bit much. 
After returning from a long weekend; It’s nice to see this thread still open. I hope it encourages more victims to come forward.
