I'm seriously annoyed cuz I'm thinking that the owners must have known times were going to get tough and didn't do anything about their horses but that won't help a thing. So am passing this on from the App Horse Club. If you can help, please do so.

***************************************

The ApHC was contacted by the National Humane Society (Leanne McCollum 615-734-9537 leannemccollum@hsus.org) regarding a family in TN that has fallen on some hard times and needs assistance placing their 80 Appaloosas.

As I understand it, the TN Humane Society has been working with the family to find homes and to provide food. The National Humane Society has arranged for a 1 ton hay drop this week, but ultimately the family is needs to place the horses.

I realize that we are all under financial strain these days, but I am calling on you to contact the representative I mentioned above to see if you can offer any assistance from transportation, feed, farrier services, a temporary home, a donation or adoption.

If you know of anyone who might be able to offer assistance please provide them the contact information listed above.

Thank you for your support of this wonderful breed and for creating a great family and community organization!

Best Regards,

Merida McClanahan

I don't know but if you email Ms. McCollum or call or email the App Horse Club, they could tell you. I'm a member of the ApHC and this was sent out as an email. If your friends could help, I'm sure it would be greatly appreciated!! Much luck to them!! :-)
