The Appaloosa Horse Journal--Protecting your horse from theft


May Issue--Pick one up and read Protecting Your Horse From Theft, By Stacy Pigott Stolen horses Curly and Ninja are in the article! Article Preview: If you own a horse, you are at risk for horse theft. Protect yourself, and your horses, with these tips from Stolen Horse International. Let’s face it, even responsible horse owners don't give much thought to horse theft prevention. We prefer to take a “that would never happen to me” attitude, rather than take precautionary measures to protect our horses. Please thank the AHJ for publishing an article about Stolen Horse International, the NetPosse volunteers and stolen horses Curly and Ninja. Encourage them to put alerts for Appaloosa's in their magazine!

We have five new horses listed on the MISSING OWNER page. Three are in TN and two in Louisiana. Please take a look.

A VICTIM'S STORY - On Sunday morning, Storm, our 7-year-old Palomino gelding, didn't come to the barn for breakfast. By evening, however, we got worried because he was the only one who didn't come up for dinner. I knew in my heart that we wouldn't find him because all the signs pointed to theft.--D'Ann Loop, April 26, 2006

Another story will be in the next newsletter. Help others learn from your personal story. Submit it to SHI at http://www.netposse.com/theftstories.htm

SHI Announces Court Victories For Victims In Missing Horse Cases

May 2, 2006 -- SHELBY, NORTH CAROLINA – From California to Maryland, Stolen Horse International has cases proving the justice system can prevail! When a horse owner is faced with the devastating loss of his or her beloved horse, not through death, but through someone’s ill intent, that person is also faced with a decision of how to handle the situation. For Rod Vilencia of California the victory was more than a decade in the making. And in the end, he was blessed with the return of not only his mare, but with two of her offspring as well. The day of the criminal verdict was handed down, Rod quickly emailed his group of supporters the following:

Casper Crossed the Rainbow
For years I have worked with Pat, one of our NetPosse volunteers who has worked tirelessly behind the scenes. I wish to extend my condolences to Pat for the loss of her Appaloosa, Casper. Last weekend tumors were found and by Sunday morning Pat's trusted friend was gone. With sadness in my heart, my thoughts and prayers are with you. You may email Pat at: stolenhorseflyer@yahoo.com
