Many people are asking, so thought I'd tell you the progress we have made with the horse in Dousman.
Thanks to so many of you, the horse will be transferred to an approved ASAP adopter who already has Sally Rengo from our program!
She went and saw this gelding and fell in love with him. The funds will be given to the person who "purchased" this ASAP horse from another ASAP adopter, but the horse will be purchased to get him out of the situation where he is and back into the ASAP family. Thanks to Joann!!! And thanks also to so many of you out there who pursued this situation. We do not yet know the identity of this gelding since his name was changed when he was sold..........but I'll be sure to let you know, and the adopter will be getting a bit of a contact from the ASAP office as well! Just an FYI - if anyone knowingly purchases a horse from an ASAP adopter, knowing that this horse is an ASAP horse, they are also setting themselves up to be liable and accountable for legal ramifications. Of course, ASAP does not intend to prosecute this case, but would have if the horse had been transferred to anyone except an ASAP adopter. The person "selling" this ASAP horse also would have been liable, since they knew the horse was ASAP property before they "purchased" him. It is amazing how someone can adopt a horse for anywhere from $0 - $500, then turn around and attempt to make some sort of profit if they believe no one is watching...........
Someone may say that they don't have time to wait for another placement to be found..........but I know for a fact that the people who adopted this horse had to wait for someone to purchase him when they listed him for sale............thank God this does not happen often and that most people have respect for the life of their animal and for the bi-laws of ASAP.
Timesareachanging will arrive Thursday and we are thrilled to have him!
Six horses got moved to summer pasture yesterday. They include: Strawberry, Steelin Apples, Little Jeffrey John, Bob Cook, Arne, and Stylish Sharon. They are in heaven!
Taser Gun and Brandy got turned out in pasture at the ASAP farm yesterday. Taser still can't believe it.
So things are looking pretty great - enjoy the sunshine!
