LOL, hi Elizabeth Forel!

Folks, in case you are unacquainted with EF, she is a NYC based cat and dog RARA turned carriage horse fanatic, who has built herself quite the little cottage industry on our horses’ backs.

Careful - she’s slippery :wink:

(^^^Just a heads up for those who have not read the whole thread, and an opportunity to give Lizzie a Google Alert on her name lol, so she will come over to see what is happening. Notice she never came back after the trouncing she got here on “panting” LOL)

This is Georgia. For ten years, a horse owner in Talbott county has literally starved to death at least dozens of horses and the county, despite a DECADE of complaints has not even removed the horses. These horses are STILL being starved to death (I think 80 horses on the property this year)- the county has now filed charges but only due to a public outcry, dead horses visible to the public, starving horses the public can see and too many buzzards eating live horses. http://www.wtvm.com/story/22285350/talbot-county-horse-owner-charged-with-cruelty This is typical of AC in Georgia. There is no money in the state budget for AC to do what needs doing.
So, I will write again- anti-carriage people please put your energies into where there is a huge need. GERL (Geargia equine rescue leauge) is crying for volunteers and donations. By forcing AC in Georgia to spend its few scant dollars on investigating carriage Horses in good condition because of anti-carriage politics, these people are causing other horses to suffer. This is unethical and sickening.[/QUOTE]

Awesome post, Cielo, many thanx.
