Crystal's Story by Dottie Reed

I was called in to the barn one night to respond to a call 
that our little mini mare and donkey were out.  I was
there in 15 minutes but could not find them anywhere.  The
gate was open that I am positive was latched before going
home that day.  It was dark and an electrical storm was
brewing so I left knowing that they would not wander far
from the barn.

The next day the donkey was right outside of her area but
no sign of the little mare.  Staff, volunteers, and I
searched the farm carefully that morning then immediately
reported her stolen. 

I was then made aware of the Netposse and SHI.  You got
info out about Crystal even before we could get a picture
to you.  I really appreciated the time you took in which
you gave me valuable information about how to go about
recovering stolen horses and the methods thief's use in
stealing them.  I was astonished at the number of horses
that are stolen.

I took your advice and kept in constant contact with the
detective.  I feel this was vital in Crystal's recovery in
keeping her on the detective's mind.  When he saw a
trailer with a little miniature horse in it, he
immediately pulled the driver over.  Because of his long
record of stealing, the thief was jailed.  Unfortunately
he was released on bond and is now a fugitive.

Not too long after Crystal returned a baby was born...
