@ThePurdypurdy Yes, we did find her back in 1998 after 51 weeks. This is Idaho in 2008 right out of the pasture on a cold Feb. afternoon. I just didn't have the heart to wash her on such a cold day. The video was shot by someone at Gardner Webb University and I had to work on the video on their schedule. We are so greatful that Jim did it for us but hated she was so dirty.
I just read in the paper that there is a Dept. of Agriculture law BANNING ANY REGULATORY ACTION for horse slaughterhouses. That means there are no standards for humane slaughter.
The Montana legislature sent a bill to its governor (to sign) to enforce the same ban on regulations on a state level.
Disgusting and shame on Montana and Gov. Schweitzer.
Gadgets are so small now, it should be possible to implant a GPS tracker inside horses. Is it being done, or at least are there people trying to promote this safety feature for their animals?
Great Video Debbi! How far things have come since the day that Idaho was stolen. I've been 'with' Netposse and you since the beginning and am so glad that someone like you started this organization to HELP horse owners. Keep up the good work Debbi.
been sent this by text bout 5 times so thought I would pass on via Bebo
There have been 3 sightings of 2 suspicious men with eastern european accents photographing local horses. This could be a steal to order gang. The men have been seen at shows, events & even in horse owners fields taking pictures. They have been seen in a white van reg N253 XAJ & red land cruiser. Police are treating this as suspicious so please contact them urgently if you see anything.
Awesome Video.. I've sent it to everyone I know. I've read all the lost/stolen and recovered horses on your website. I've also bought your book. It's comforting to know that you are there to assist those who have lost or had a horse stolen. Thanks for all you do!
Thank you for your help with this horrible crime. My friend just got his horse back but there have been no arrests. 6 stolen horse were found in a roundpen ready to load up in a trailer. The home owner was not arrested!
The video is Wonderful!! What a great way to help get the word out!! I have recieved your stolen horses reports since you started out! Keep up the good work! Restoring families, healing hearts.
Debbie has done a marvelous job of getting many stolen horses returned to their rightfull owner. She started NetPosse, and has gotten many others involved with theft recovery and prevention. Extremely dedicated and hard working, both this founder and entire organization (volunteers) are the best! I have the upmost respect for them.
I get all your stolen horse alerts and i am so glad that Lily made home safe and sound.I post all stolen horse info via my space and the web when the alerts come in.You people are wonderful and thank you for helping the horses find there way home.
Great video. Too short at 49 seconds!! Wish it could tell all about NetPosse, maybe some personal stories from others too and show some products for sale. But love it!! Sent it to everyone I know.
Well done Debi! I just wish you had been a little less modest and told how many cases you guys have solved! I am always amazed at your ability to find horses. If only our law enforcement people were half as good as your volunteers.
Thank you Debi! Thank you for the dedication to protecting Ameican horses. We know the risk they face if they are stolen, so I hope everyone supports the efforts of Stolen Horse International and buy the book, "Been There, Done Thate" about how to protect your horse from being stolen and what to do if they turn up missing.
Once the slaughter business is no more then one of the major incentives to steal horses will also be no more. Our horses will be safer in their own barn or pastures.
Remember Fitch ....a young horse who had been rescued from slaughter to be terminally injured by someone who thought to steal him and probably to make a few dollars.Lets stop the nightmare of horse slaughter and the stealing of our horses.Thanks to NETPOSSE for all you do to find and return horses that have been stolen.
Stolen Horse International and Debi and Harold are the unsung Heros of the Horse World. Debi Helped me to Recover my Horse that was stolen from me over a Decade ago, and her deep understanding of my situation, and the way she tirelessly helps all horse theft vistims that come to her, make her a true One Woman Posse! Debi and Harold, Thanks for Helping me get my girl back home after all of those years, you told me to never gave up, and with your help, She is home to stay!
I had the honor and privilege of getting to know Deb through her commitment to horse theft victims all over the world. Deb's actions and dedication to such a worthy cause has touched so many in a deep and everlasting way. It is people like Deb who make this world a better place to live in. Keep up the great work Deb, we are all so proud of you.
Penny and I are another NetPosse success story. Thanks to Debi's level-headed approach to recovery, Penny returned home in only 5 days. Please watch Debi's video and support NetPosse with your membership and contributions. You never know--you might be the next one to need The Posse!
I remember when Idaho was stolen and how hard you and your family searched for her! It is SO good to see Idaho and you 'in person' on the Net, and what a difference Netposse has made in horse stealing! Thanks for posting this video.
have you found her yet
