[RC] [RC] BLM adoptions at rides - Michelle Fink

     >>I also talked to people who did adopt, and BLM never followed up
with any one of them.
     >>Never checked the housing, the fencing. And this is required before
you take the animal home.


Hi -

I adopted a 3 yr. old BLM mustang two years ago at a BLM/prison training
facility 250 miles from my home, and the BLM had a local field officer
inspect my housing, fencing, and check up on the health of the animal after
I got him home.  There may be cases not handled as well by the BLM, but this
area seems to do a good job.  The prison training program also seemed
positive - my horse definitely wasn't abused in his training, and is
generally a gentle, trusting, non-spooky fellow.  He's done a CTR, hopefully
I can get him to some LD rides next year.

Happy Trails,
Michelle
