A disgusting video of a Shetland pony being abused was shared onto my Facebook Page tonight. I have reported it to Facebook for graphic violence and am phoning World Horse Welfare first thing in the morning. Were it this country, I would have phoned the police. Video id is 173061456208690 but can I strongly recommend that people do not watch unless they can do something to help this poor pony. original sharers do seem concerned for pony but have not replied to my post requesting details of where they found the original video, which is dated 3rd July. Does anybody else know anything about this, or can suggest anything to help this pony, if the poor little creature is still alive?

I can't find the video but the Dutch version of the RSPCA is http://www.dierenbescherming.nl/ but I've not had any dealings with them so not sure how proactive they are. Do you have a link to the video rather than just the ID - or do you know how to search via the ID?
 
If it's the one I'm thinking of from your description, it is an old video and the people were found and prosecuted already, from what I've read. There is a thread on here about it if you do a search you can see the links and see if it is indeed the same one.
 
Ah .. I did a search in the search box but nothing came up , maybe its very old ? I'll wait to see what comes back from the Authorities before I assume its an old vid just incase its not !
How anyone thinks what was happening in the vid was ok is so sick . I hope , if they were caught etc that ALL were named and shamed and prosecuted . The unthinkable thing is that thats the one we've seen as someone filmed it ... what about all the ones we dont see ?

No, the thread I am talking about was a couple of days ago. Obviously can't swear it's the same one as OP hasn't linked her video, but it sounds like it from the description and that one has popped up on my FB feed so is doing the rounds again by the look of it.
 
Oh well , we'll see what happens.

My friend on FB has just sent me this .....
There was a petition with over 8000 signatures put to the Dutch Authorities to do something about this. According to an update on the petition site, the horse has been confiscated and 3 people have been arrested. There is mention of 5yrs in prison but not sure how accurate this info is.

Reply from World Horse Welfare .......
Thank you for taking the time to alert us to this appalling video. We are disgusted by the treatment of this pony. We understand that the Dutch authorities have already taken action - http://www.dutchnews.nl/news/archives/2013/07/three_arrested_after_shetland.php and http://www.volkskrant.nl/vk/nl/2686...lie-ponyplet-producent-moet-onderduiken.dhtml - thanks to the outrage expressed by members of the public. It does make a difference.
Best wishes, Jamie

But is this the same case because this video is posted 11 month ago in YouTube and it's different people's. I just don't understand why thy don't take this out YouTube.
 
Was it a chestnut pony?
It was on a Facebook group I belong to. Someone posted to say the pony died and they are called "Crush Videos" and people crush animals to death for sexual pleasure.
Maybe I am very innocent, but I have never heard of this terrible thing before.
I might add that I didn't watch the video myself.
 
I am genuinely gobsmacked reading about the 'crush videos', how can that be a real thing? What is wrong with these people!! How do you get any form of pleasure from harming anything, especially something so tiny and sweet. Sickening!

There's the crushing 'fetish' (dont know why it is a fetish!) and there was another one going around the same sort of time of the one spoken about on here of a women that beats horses for her 'fetish' it was also reported to have been dealt with. Just waiting for that one do to the rounds again...
 
That is disgusting, reminds me of a report I read of baby rabbits being covered in glass sheets and sat on by the Chinese girls for some kind of 'fetish'.
 
This has resurfaced on Facebook too. Like a previous poster said I did a google search and found people had been arrested for it ages ago.
