[LindaW]

Do you have any pics? Can ask tack shops in the area to put them up for you if you have a poster?

 

[kendra2705]

hi how awful , but the one good thing is he is freeze marked your chances of getting him back has increased greatly just by doing this, good luck and i will keep an eye out .

 

[timthearab]

having trouble putting a picture of tim on this site, will try to do it tomorrow

Thanx

 

[LindaW]

Tried to pm you but can't as you aren't accepting pm's. If you can, pm me the details of the person who sold him, I can discreetly ask around. Found the pics on AL's, he is marked so similar to mine that I'd have noticed him if I'd seen him around.

Do you know how she sold him? Ad? National or local? Private sale?

I copied it from one of the sites, I hope you don't mind.

[timthearab]

Its my birthday in a week, the best pressie would be to have timmy home XX

 

[timthearab]

Well my birthday has come and gone.
No Tim..
Where are you boy!!!

 

[jhoward]

im so sorry, is there no new leads atall?

 

[niagaraduval]

Aww.. He is lovely, I wish you the best in finding him, I would contact all slaughterhouses in the area too.
Good Luck.

 

[timthearab]

Hi, nothing from slaughter houses, and no new leads at all. Things seem to have dried up. I just want him home. We have sent out over 1000 flyers to the area where he was last know. I have had one or two calls just saying that they will keep their eyes open for him. But sadly nothing has come of them at all.

 

[EarlGrey]

I'm so sorry. Just reading what has happened makes me feel really teary. This probably wouldn't work, but what about checking all the veterinary practices in the area in case they remember having to visit him at some point or try them with the name of the person who supposedly had him 'on loan' or the address he was on loan at.

 

[Shilasdair]

I haven't seen him on my yard (SJ and event dealers based there).
Have you tried sending photo posters to Hartpury, Bishop Burton and the other colleges, and ask them to display them in their equine facilities - students from all over the country attend them?

[timthearab]

Hi, Thanks for advice, will send some posters to them. We have sent flyers out to vets, farriers etc in the area, nothing??? Now it is starting to heat up abit his rug will hopefully be off soon and his freeze mark can be seen.
Been on phone to police today, very blunt and abrupt, NOTHING TO TELL ME !!!

 

[timthearab]

Still playing the waiting game.... We have located Tim but legal red tape is in way.. Found in Scotland!!!! Big thank you to PC Richards & Ali & Katie (missinghorsesonloan) There is a little light at the end of the tunnel (i think !!)

 

[Sugarplum Furry]

SO glad you have located him, I really hope he's back home with you very soon. Good luck. K x

 

[Buggy]

Have been following your posts, am so glad you have found him! Hope you get him back soon x

 

[MHOL]

Keeping everything crossed for you, Ali has been discussing this case with another policeman, we are always here for you, just pick up a phone if you need to, we are glad to of helped, Tim has given hope to all the other owners with their horses missing. With help horses can be located and eventually retrieved, selling horses while on loan is BIG business as we have found out, it is treated as a civil matter but in reality it is a criminal case, they "intended to permanently deprive" the owner of their animals and that IS theft, so be warned.
