It just grinds my gears!!!!

This morning they were showing on animal planet neglected horses. And It just burns me up!!!!! If you can't care for the horse, Why get it. It makes me mad with all animals. But horses are the worst! I found this video today on youtube. Never even heard of this case, but it made me sick. I literally cried and threw up watching it. That someone would do this to animals. This kind of cruelty is why i'm becoming a vet and my friend and I are gonna have a recuse ranch when we get older.

Contents of this video are grumsome and horride. I would suggest that if you have a weak stomach and are easy to cry. Not to watch this.

Well thats great intentions to be sure, hope you marry money or can support your habit because it's going to get worse from here on out. People can be awful creatures, sad as it is it goes on everyday. Just imagine the ones that don't make the papers...

That was an extreme case, very sad that people will do that. At least they got caught-finally.

Sad thing is many people see nothing wrong with not feeding their animals.

My son "had" a good friend that he really enjoyed playing with.Loved the kid's parents too. They had several horses that were very thin. At first my son assumed they had just got them and would be fattening them up.
Then came the fateful day when he realized that no one went to feed and there was no feed there.
But they had plenty of money to buy boats, 4-wheelers, be members of hunting clubs, etc... so it was not a money issue.

I offered to take 2 of the horses before they died and the SOB told me he'dtake 1,500 each for them.
