Could you offer some advice. My friend bought a little shetland from my YO around 5 years ago as company for her horse - both kept at a farm nearby. Last evening she called me to tell me that a large (new looking) white van pulled up at her yard and a young couple got out, with three young children and mother heavily pregnant. To cut the story short - they say that the shetland is theirs and they want him back. They say they have his passport and want him back. Other than that they would not give much more information. Friend told them she has his passport (he didnt come with one) and she also had him microchipped and she has a receipt for him. They said they would come back tomorrow (today) with his passport and they will also bring a receipt. Friend asked them for their name and a contact number, but they refused. Friend is absolutely traumatised - her ponies are her children and the shetland needs careful managing as he is prone to lami. Police are not interested. Any advice welcome!
