PLEASE and add to them of necessary---let's help all those we can in the
short time we have left.

--TIPS--

1.) Spray paint your stats on the horse. Many horses after Andrew ended up
in auction.

2.)  It might be best to use a breakaway halter if any at all. This will
help if someone is trying to catch your animal, yet if the horse gets
caught on something it can hopefully break free.

3.) Keep your livestock outside....this is safest.
