Last month, I, along with another professional horse person, legally removed two ponies and returned them to their rightful owners.
I want to emphasize that the ponies were taken from an environment where their care needs were not being met. Due to concerns about the individual's ability to properly care for these animals, removing them was necessary to ensure their health and overall welfare.
The person from whom we removed the ponies has demonstrated a pattern of dishonesty, which has severely impacted multiple people and organisations.
Their behavior raises serious concerns about their trustworthiness and the potential harm they may cause by going out of their way to discredit others.
I fully stand by my actions, which were carried out legally and with full consent. My primary concern is the safety, health, and well-being of animals, and that will always be my top priority.
It saddens me to hear that horse/s may have recently come into their possession, with the intent of just breeding. Unfortunately, like so many other cases we are all aware of, this signals that the cycle of neglect and mistreatment will continue.
If you suspect any neglect or abuse, please report it to the appropriate authorities to prevent harm.
