Re: [RC] Rescues - was Slaughter/Breeding, a subject JT is ticked off has run too long :) - Tiffany D'Virgilio
Actually I was, and was working actively with that rescue at the time that it happened.?
I can understand why a rescue would have some qualms about putting a stallion with genetic issues back with a breeder.?
They ultimately understood that Heidi was going to be responsible and he went back.?
I haven't run into any issues with getting my own two ready for endurance as they were both young, unbroke females that were basically thrown away. I became involved in the rescue through my first mare and some of the horses I fostered would have had big issues as they were sorely abused, but I was very lucky with my two and with my experience with the rescue.?
Quite a few of the AHRN's rescues have gone on to have nice endurance careers and are actively competing.?

Besides.? YOU weren't there.? YOU have absolutely no idea what kind of treatment Heidi received.? YOUR experiences with that group may have been positive but HERS sucked!!? If they treated you like dirt, you'd be pissed too.
