  1. Evening all,

     

    Easta has been to the vets this afternoon, good news is Easta doesn't have navicular as she was still lame after her innjection of the navicular bursar. It was a MASSIVE Needle!! So now we're waiting on an insurance decision for the MRI and will be off to Hampshire or Kent for the scan so we can see how bad the damage is.

     

    So not dramatically bad news but still not alot clearer. :mellow:

     

     

    Well thats your biggest fear gone then :flowers:

    Navicular isnt the end of the world. Often its caused by work and at least then you would know its not genetic.

    With careful shoeing she will still have a good quality of life.

    We get lots of horses through here with navicular who have just had to change work load.

    I know its not what you would have wanted for her but its controllable and she can have a future.

  3. The first thing you should do is speak to the rescue he came from. Firstly its polite as he is there responsibility secondly they could enquire of the previous family/vet and see if this is something that has happened before.

    It could be something that he cant tolerate or is allergic to but it probably is just a mild virusy thing and he will be fine in a day or two.

  4. I think its not that they switch off but more that they dont have the ability to think.

    In 100 years WE will be a rarity.

     

    A lot of families being bred now are from parents who dont give a toss and only had kids because contraception was something else they couldnt think about.

    The next generation will have inherited these traits and take it one stage further and will progressively care even less about anything other than themselves.

    Ive caught kids harming animals and the parents are clueless on what Im shouting about let alone the kids who think its funny.

    Spay the humans I say.Save the world a whole heap of bother in the future.Educate the children before its too late.

  5. Owl beat me to it

    But its not all about puppyfarmers.its misleading to think it is.

     

    This is the general attitude towards animals that we have to cope with. Im sure its the same in some other areas.

    there is a total disregard for anything non human or not related humans.

    The mememe attitude is appauling.

    They only put free to "gud ome" to make themselves look better.I expect whatever is needing the hay will be dumped with equal callousness.

    When we get a call for a dog coming in now often the first question is "do you charge " This will be accompanied by long drawn out garbage about how fido, who is generally a collie x has the children backed into a corner and we have to rush over to save them.

    They question the charge because they have bought the dog on dole day from the one place that entertains them and it costs £60 to take your big mistake back.If they can get us to take the dog for free AND get us to collect then lifes cushty.

    Its no different with horses.They buy foals at auction cos its trendy and cheap.It gets bigger and bites/mounts the kids. The back garden is mush and its £140 to get it gelded.

    THEN when they think all these places that advertise horse welfare are going to bale them out and they dont ...guess who gets the phone call.

    Crosshands / Llanelli is particularly bad. I have two Deerhound crosses who were living on station rd playing on the railway line.Its right bang smack in the middle of a big busy town and they were both runnng free.

     

    This bully is not alone but hopefully will be better off with someone who has paid in bales than with someone who values him so little.

  6. Preloved upgraded us and have been very helpful.

    The message was archived shortly after we all started commenting on it so the dog could be gone but he could just have moved the ad.

    He certainly sells dogs at intervals. I would guess he gets them and sells them on as there is no emotion simply a lame excuse.

    I would ask only genuine people who are able to work wih us take this forward.

    We are only interested in the welfare of the dog.

    It may be as well to do this by PM so its not visible

  7. If it had been years or the dog had been in any appeared mistreat I might have had more sympathy with the new owner but to me in these circumstances if the dog looks like he wants to go home he should be allowed to do so and I'd like to think that after a few weeks with a dog versus years if I were in the same boat I'd do the decent thing regardless of my legal rights and let the dog go back to his real home and family.

     

    Thats people for you. They would rather grab something then give thought to the safety and welfare of a dog.

    I have a dog missing that has a major medical history and bites. One day the family who have this dog are going to have thier hearts broken.
