Project pony anyone?

She is a nice looking pony. But she has a nasty eye to her. Evil Look!! Any horse that aggressive needs to go somewhere...6ft under would be my choice. And the person that let her do it again after the pony already nailed her twice was just asking to get hurt...jmo

Yes Lipizzan, I know she went through an auction a few weeks back, was bought for kids but she is not a kids pony so she's now at meat auction, they believe she was heavily sedated at the first auction before going through, more is trying to be found out about her but its understood she has suffered a lot of abuse I the hands of two different owners and a trainer, she badly needs an osteopath or chiropractor session and some time off, it's known this mare was sweet once, she is now just at the end of her tether, I wouldn't normally get involved with a horse like this but I can get vibes from her, yes, weird, I know, to the point I did something I have never done, I offered a small donation towards her bail if anyone can take and help her, just waiting to see if anyone else puts up or finds more funds:)

You are right Lipizzan! she just needs a chance and some time in a field to relax and move on before anyone should even attempt to rehabilitate her:)

I also think every horse deserves a decent home, and a 2nd chance,..,
And with that being said,.., I have still been around a few TRULY DANGEROUS horses that were so aggressive,
that they either needed to go to someone who was a real horse trainer
to hopefully rehabilitate them, OR to be put down
They were seriously dangerous, and showed no improvement in highly 'capable' hands.

Sadly, I do think some horses get beyond a point of rehabilitation, and given their size and degree of aggressiveness,
the best thing, with all those circumstances, is euthanasia.

Have you ever seen the movie 'Buck'?
Its a documentary about a horse trainer in the states named Buck Brannaman.
There is part in the movie where Buck attempts to rehabilitate a rank and spoiled horse.
Altho, this particular horse's problems WERE caused by humans, the horse had reached full maturity, and sadly, was a true menace.
I've known one horse like him, and another one that was 'on his way' to being like him, for some reasons unknown (possibly pain).
Point being,.., those horses were beyond the scope of your average horse person, and at least in Buck's case,
beyond the scope of a 'professional' horse person/trainer.
The one horse I knew, had spent a considerable amount of time just turned out,
and it did nothing to improve his aggressive nature, only made it 1000x worse.

Ideally, it would be wonderful if every horse could be saved, but there are some horses that do get beyond a point,
and are unsafe to be around on every level.
Thank goodness, its the rare few, but those horses are out there.
Again, JMO,., but if the animal is a danger to its everyday handler, its like a ticking 'time bomb' IMO.

PS. If you haven't seen 'Buck', it is well worth watching. Its an excellent documentary on Netflix

Yes there are some at cannot be helped, my mil had a horse like that, he became a pasture puff but she could afford it!

What opened my eyes a lot was Isis, lots of people thought he would never be ridden and were shocked when I posted pics finally of me on him, I even got a few pms from people on ht saying they just couldn't believe it and honestly believed he would never be safe.

Now he's still not an any person horse for anything, he's very sensitive and high strung, today I am going to ride him, his last ride was October, if it's anything like last years I'm sure he will just dance around a few strides but as long as I just sit quiet and don't react to it he should be fine in a minute, hubby's at work but I have camcorder set up to record any fun!

There's a few people clubbing together for this pony mare so fingers crossed they find enough to bail her out and transport her:)

My stallion was very very agressive. We still have holes in the wall that he made pounding with his back legs ​​while he was keept in the box because no one could take him out. I had cracked knee when he kicked me, and my dad had numerus bites and bruises. He was breeding stallion and my dad was fresh in horse world and we did not know how to handle him. He become very frustrated and dangerous. Now we know better, his rehabilitation with the help of some people has been slow but he mannaged to turn around, and now I can even ride him, and he can be outside with another horses and stallions.

Dana Meier connections on facebook, I don't know if they need donations yet, I told her to contact me if they did privately as I don't want it over facebook, I'll update as I hear what's happening, she's still in the auction pen so hopefuly they move soon as they only hold them a week.

Keep us updated. Hope she make it. Fingers crossed

She's been bailed:)

Has a temp home, just waiting on getting her moved:)
