Well the Home for Horses 'charity' seems to now be openly operating as a dealing site. And the faithfull Elms' family ousted. So much for loyalty, and blinkers.....

I hope this means they have stopped begging for donations and paid everyone who donated to their 'charity' back in full!

Wait a minute, pass that one by me again... They are asking for donations to buy horses that they are then going to sell on for a profit?
Ok, that sounds legit

Do they not know of the terrible situation in America since horse slaughter was banned, or are they just sticking their heads in the sand?

It makes no difference to them. All they're interested in is actually buying and selling.

I'm not on facebook, so I can't get access to their page - but let me get this right in my own head. They are a private company relying on donations to buy horses on the cheap that they then re-assess/rehabilitate and then find homes for them? Do they have the expertise, space, stabling? Who's paying for any veterinary treatment, feed, farrier. dentist etc? Do they gift (for want of a better word) the horses to their supposedly 'forever' home, or do they expect some sort of payment? Is that the gist of it? What happens to any 'rescues' they buy that aren't suitable for re-homing, or are they just buying horses and not rescuing at all?
