Horse Rescue
If it's near the time when an Update is going to go out, I try to include animal rescue or missing animal info that I become aware of. Perhaps this is in part because my wife Helen rounded up our resident little dog Bud as he was playing in traffic by the Kemblesville Post Office, on a cold January night. MUCH effort was expended trying to determine his owners, with the ultimate conclusion being that someone probably "dropped him off out in the country." To this day, about 9 years later, he still "melts" when he encounters a young girl in the 4-8 year old range. We presume that such a young lady must have been his best pal during puppy-hood.
Concerning the following animal rescue item, please remember that, about 100 years ago, I owned multiple horses. So I'm certainly aware that taking on a horse, or another horse, means taking on significant expense.
<< I got a call from Doug Newbold (a woman) from the Pennsylvania SPCA regarding a horse (that looked like an Arabian) that was sent to them as an severe abuse case. The poor horse, gelding, 11 years old, emaciated, dirty, is frightened to pieces, and now being held on Erie Street in Philadelphia, which Doug says is not best place. The horse is manageable, only scared, and they are looking for someone to help this poor horse. If anyone feels the need to rescue, at least long enough to get him on his feet and find him a home, it would be so appreciated. I was also told that they were cleaning him up.
Please, if you, or you know of anyone that could help, call Doug Newbold at the SPCA at 610-296-0463.
