Minxy the little fallabella needs our help

If you are asking the public for donations, then they have a RIGHT to know the where, why and what for aspects of it.

If I was in your shoes, I would be flooding this board with vet reports, facts and figures.

Your attitude stinks in regards to Joe Public whom you seem to think OK to beg donations off.

You are causing un-necessary suffering to an animal, and acting like a 14 year old spoilt brat with this last reply.

If you want a penny of my money, I would like to SEE those vets reports thank you. If you do not furnish them, I am to assume there are none, and will stand to be corrected when they appear.

spot on.
 
I think that as has been rightly stated, when the public have donated money to pay for Minxy's vet treatment, then that treatment should be made public too.

It isn't a question of not disclosing because she's been 'hounded', she has a moral duty to do so; if not here then certainly elsewhere, so that those who have been donating are aware of what is going on and are given regular updates. If test results are being waited upon, then it would be sensible to disclose which tests and what the possible outcomes are.

Well maybe if you stopped hounding her she would of let us know what is happening with Minxy.

It's not a trade off. SHE want people to donate. If SHE provides proper information, vet reports and prognoses, she stands more chance of getting donations. For MINXY. After all, she's doing it all for MINXY. Isn't she? So she'll do whatever it takes to gain more funding/donations for MINXY. Surely?
 
Breeders should be aware of the risks when bringing life into the world & should not expect others to pick up their bills. Cute animals always drag on the heart strings & common sense goes out the window. The only winners here are the vets.
 
15 minutes of fame for the owner at the expense of an animal suffering. Thats the appalling tragedy of this sorry affair.

H&H isn't coming out of this too well either...
 
I'd love to know how he's doing. Realistically, he should have never been bred, but now he's here all we can do is support his "recovery". I don't really agree with asking for donations, as really, if your gonna breed a horse (or even own one) i've found having a bit of money aside for emergency vet bills helps a lot! Anyway, I hope he's either recovering to get a decent quality of life (for a HORSE, not a dog) or you've made the respectable decision to have him PTS. Surely thats more dignified than trailing him around to show's.
 
There has been an update on the MM should be pts page on facebook, saying the foal was taken to Liphook and sent home with no treatment offered or advised..
I think now the RSPCA and WHW are involved something will get done.
I hope so, it would be a very cruel owner to go against so much expert advice..
 
I repeat here what I have said elsewhere, I hope someone is keeping an eye on the donated money as well. If no treatment occurs for Minxy, then this needs to be donated to an equine hospital/charity/etc ...
 
RIP Minxy, so sorry you had to suffer at hands of arrogant humans before you got your peace!

Also, in that article she 'had' to take him to a carboot sale because he needed 24hr care and he was 'running around'. Firstly, I highly doubt he was running anywhere and secondly why the hell did she 'have' to go to a carboot sale.. If your animal requires 24hr care then you keep it where it is most comfortable. AT HOME!!

They did the right thing finally, but I still think they are unfit to keep animals.
