Didnt they pay over $500.00 for one horse and then turn down an old skinny poor horse that the auction yard offered to drop the entry fee on if they would just give him a home? WTF- That is defeating the purpose of save the horse correct? GLORIFIED HORSE TRADER-Sounds right to me!!!!!

You are unfortunately incorrect about NorCal Equine Rescue paying $500 for a horse at this auction AND you are incorrect that the auction yard offered a free horse.

I have to say i Strongly agree with the last few post! What a joke ner has turned out to be. Jason knows good and well he was just as involved and wrong. First he tried to load 5 horses on the back of his trailer and then after a few wrecks he got a paddle and stated that he was gonna get a hot shot. They dont even know how to handle horses. It is all fun to cut and edit the tape but why do you put up the other 20 min of the tape that you were so horribly harassed on. Scared to?

You are entirely incorrect in assuming that Jason said he was going to use a hotshot. His exact words were: "It's not a hot shot."

I actually heard this supposed harrassment and it was on both parts. Part of the bickering was cut out. Jason actually threatened to use a hotshot on the irl you hear which started even more of this. And the violence towards women was due to Jason tellin one of the cowboys he would hit him if he wasnt a girl. Either way they were both in the wrong. But I believe there was an agreement made with the auction owner that cameras were also no longer allowed.

Cursing is not allowed on our Youtube video's or their comments.

As for the hot shot comment he said Its not a hotshot, but if I had one I would use it on you and that was aimed at the girl. Personally I wouldnt have a problem with NER if they actually rescued horses that no one bids on, and didnt look down on everyone else. They have bid against me before when I was trying to get a riding horse. A horse that they kept bidding on, against several parties.

You know absolutley nothing about me so don't assume that I don't know what it takes to run a rescue. I currently take care of 14 animals, averaging a cost of $2000 per month, all on my own without the drama. On top of that, I worked at a rescue for 4+ years and never turned a blind eye to an animal in need. If we didn't have the finances or the room we found somebody that did. I love animals more than anything, that is why NER's shady actions bother me so much.

What is with some of these comments? C'mon folks, stop slamming NorCal & let them do their job. Sadly not all horses can be saved or restored to health; sometimes decisions HAVE to be made to take the one that scores 3 on the condition scale over the one that scores 2 if the former stands a better chance at recovery. Often no matter what is done for the ill or severely injured, it won't pull through, In a perfect world all could be bought & saved; alas! this is not a perfect world. Kudos NorCal

I think that what you guys are doing, rescuing horses is a great thing, all you people running them down id like to see you running your own equine rescue and coping with the day to day problems they face..you wouldnt last.

so maby the horse cost 450...i dont know for sure...I just see the same thing happen with you month after month. your always trying to out bid someone instead of helping the ones that really need it. You act like every horse purchased by someone beside you is a killer buyer...You really need to take a deeper look and get your story straight.

why dont you put that on the recording?
