You just never know. <br /><br />Not knowing what kind of improvements need to be made, sometimes the AC or local humane society organizations can lend a hand (or a check) and make the improvements to the facility in exchange for using it as a holding facility for livestock that has been seized. Just a thought... <br /><br />Either way ask if you can at the very least put up your signs on the fence or gates. Someone who shows up not knowing it is closed, it would be a way for them to find you and get the horse some help. It's worth a shot.Cut-N-Jumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03603347619547454296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5038232550761074404.post-72014503796616169602009-10-28T19:45:50.538-07:002009-10-28T19:45:50.538-07:00Maybe if we had some sort of warning that would ha...Maybe if we had some sort of warning that would have been a possibility but they have totally closed up shop and left.BITS TEAMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11186088747166719498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5038232550761074404.post-39901583592796138312009-10-28T12:17:36.788-07:002009-10-28T12:17:36.788-07:00As much as putting any animal down just plain suck...As much as putting any animal down just plain sucks, many times it is the right thing for them, given the situation and the circumstances. Sometimes things just happen and that is the only reasonable option.<br /><br />Mixed feelings about the auction yard going under. Good in one way, but bad in so many others. Maybe you could get with the owner and see what it would take to get people to channel the horses through into either new homes or getting hay and donations. <br /><br />Divert the flow, rather than shut off the faucet.<br /><br />Let me know if there is anything I can do to help.Cut-N-Jumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03603347619547454296noreply@blogger.com
