Again, I am not Miss Morris, guess you are wrong about alot of things.
When i met Miss Morris and Minxy you could see that she cared about him with all her heart, and from what i saw of Minxy he looked extremely well looked after. He certainly wasn't the sad looking pony that you were all mentioning. If he was unhappy he wouldn't of had his ears pricked forward, they would be back and he would have been swishing his tail.
As for some of you saying that he would die soon anyway because his insides would grow normal size, this is not the case , and someone said do i play with my little ponies.

"you could see that she cared about him with all her heart" - so she loves him enough to let him go?

"if he was unhappy" - are you for real??!

Why is this not the case, Joanne? There are knowledgable breeders of miniatures on here (something you appear to not be!) who know this is the fate of Minxy even if he does ever walk again.

I'm sick to death of this media freak show you've created. At the heart of it is a pony who is dying slowly and painfully and all you seem to care about is making a quick buck and breaking a world record. You care about Minxy with all your heart? What utter tripe. I care about my horse with every inch of my being and she was 2 days from being PTS for a much less serious condition than Minxy because she was suffering. See how that works? If you care about something, you EASE its suffering, not prolong it so you can have your 15 minutes of fame in the Daily Fail.

I'd like to know what the animal charities, who have successfully removed Annie the Elephant from a freak show into a caring home, have to say.

I'd also like to know why the cost of Minxy's treatment jumped 14K when he still hasn't even seen a specialist...
 
Good, the "jojojoanne" account is replying to this thread apparently..

Funny how the Farley account goes offline when the jojojoanne one is online, wonder why that would be :rolleyes:

I loved my old dog with all my heart. That's why when she developed cancer I let her go to sleep one final time, peacefully, before the pain got bad, even though I was devastated. THAT is what a truly loving owner does. :(

Yet here you are, posting again after your 'one and only post'

Hmmm. Perhaps you're finally seeing the light, that s a good thing. Let him go and end his suffering.
 
I think most people are concerned about the welfare of the foal and the fact that you have been seen with him at a boot fair and a pet shop trying to make money off him when he is clearly a very disabled little pony who should be with his mother.

Hurray??? Have you not read our comments? We want what's best of HIM, not you Joanne!! You clearly aren't taking any notice of what is in the comments if this is what you think.

Why shouldn't you let the public know how he is - you're happy to take their "donations"!

No, I don't understand your love for him at all, Joanne.

Clearly what the public thinks doesn't concern you one bit, but what about the size of the donations, does that concern you?

Well I would like to know what the specialists have said as my cousin has donated towards his veterinary fees. You can PM me if you wish.
 
well said jojojoanne
I do have a life, not just sat at a computer, it does automatically log you out if you do not use it for a while, why would i be pretending to be Miss Morris anyway.
I'm standing up for her because of the way you all have been treating her.
Minxy is her foal and what happens to him is her decision not through you bullying her to do so.
Minxy is well looked after and if he can be fixed why shouldn't he be
 
I am absolutely baffled!! If *apparently* tests have not yet established as to whether this little chap can be helped in the slightest, why has "fundraising" been done already...? And £ figures named. :confused:

I wouldn't be shouting hurrah at all, I'd be extremely saddened for your loss as the majority of us have been there too. As I've said before, when you hand rear and nurture something, then you become even more emotionally involved which does make it harder to do the right thing.

What other people have to say should concern you to a degree though, they aren't blinded by the emotional attachment that you have to Minxy and can see the bigger picture, sometimes the closer you are to something the harder it is to see clearly. When I had to have my own dog pts many years ago it was my mother who suggested it was time, I couldn't see it as he'd been playing and happy on the morning, he had liver failure and the vet agreed it was probably the best thing so the deed was done. Of course I was devastated, but with hindsight I could see that it was the right thing for him and I hadn't realised how he'd been deteriorating as I was conditioned to seeing him every day, I learned a hard lesson that it is wise to take on board anothers opinion in things like this. A fresh pair of eyes sees things you don't.

What HAS the specialist said then? Truthfully I believe that people would support you wholeheartedly in making the right decision, it wouldn't be gloating that they were 'right' at all, it isn't about one-upmanship, it's about Minxy.
 
I have never once thought about the money you sad sad people.....!!!! Do you no what I am sick of all you judgements i've tried to be nice about all of this so sod the lot of you GOOD BYE.......

Actually, no. Animal welfare is very much a matter for more than just the owner of the suffering animal. :rolleyes:

Unless you genuinely believe that what happened at Spindles Farm was James Gray's private business :confused:
 
What a fascinating thread *comes in extremely late having only been dimly aware of this for the past few days*

Just one question - is there yet from anybody 'involved' (for example the recent posters on this thread), a definite answer on whether and why this poor sod isn't with his mum? He apparently wasn't being hand reared, but considering the picture I looked at he was in a house on carpet, I presume mum wasn't in there too? I haven't watched the video though. Surely though, if ones feels that this foal should have another chance, should have surgery, does have a future etc then you should be looking after it in surroundings suitable for a horse rather than a puppy, and it should be with its mother?

If you look at the entire thread again, you will see that the above quote was the first time I posted. I have not stated any opinion one way or another, however as a family member has given you money I think that we (as in my family and myself) deserve to know what the specialist has said. Please can you send me a personal message and let me know?

I am not trying to imply anything, nor will my thoughts on the matter be aired (or typed!), I would just like to know what the specialists have said.

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.

How can a 10 week old foal survive on bits of apple. And I see the Horse and Hound have printed his story in todays mag, which doesn't cover them in glory, perhaps somebody should drop a line to their editor as this is bad journalism. The owner I think is only seeing what is in it for herself.

I e-mailed the editor about this when the story first made the news, I had an automated reply saying that she was out of the office until Friday.
