    75 - 125 Kansas Minis "OMG Please help by WRITING!!"

    Reijel's mom, I did not call (phone) the station. As I said in my above post, I e-mailed the station and was polite and informative in the e-mail. Not only did I get an initial rude reply but in a second reply via e-mail from that station I was informed that I was calling myself by another...

    Well, I have just had enough. ENOUGH. I now have had two e-mails from KOAM-TV, apparently from this Aubey person. The first e-mail was not only snotty and arrogant in tone, it also stated that I had contacted this person before the one I DID send, which I had not, and was very dismissive of...

    You might recall that recently on the TV program "The View" Whoopi Goldberg defended Michael Vick's dogfighting activities as being "part of his culture." No doubt Whoopi would suggest that Vern Trembly's "culture" permitted hoarding and neglect of horses because he is located in a farming...

    Well this sure sounds like something for 60 Minutes or 20/20 or some other network news investigation. Just keep in mind - John Stossell (sp?) one of those investigative reporters on one or the other of those shows, has said on the air that he doesn't care for animals. So he sure wouldn't be...

    I believe the cancer comment was from the reporter at KOAM-TV, one Jorden Aubey, who wrote a letter pasted into posting No. 444, given directly to that by the Bourbon County Sheriff's office, a deputy. I looked at that post again to check Aubey's letter and didn't see anything about "one...

    Please be very, very careful and research the issue of others' experiences with this organization very, very carefully before getting PETA involved. They have a different agenda than rescuers do and there are stories online from individuals and rescue groups that got that organization involved...

    Time to light up the phone lines, folks. Reporters who don't want to do anything about a story just send form e-mails out. E-mailing isn't going to do the trick. They will just put up the spam filters, or not respond (like they did to my e-mails) or send something written by their intern and...

    As many in rescue are aware, the "cancer" card is played frequently by hoarders as an "excuse" for why an animal is a walking anatomy lesson. Don't believe it for one minute! Shame on the media who gave that glib reply. Someone earlier said there's a "good ol' boy" scenario going on here and...

    I contacted the Topeka Capital-Journal when this all started to come to light. They didn't bother to respond. If anyone is located closer to this than I am (I'm on the west coast) and would like to have a go at getting local media's attention, below is a list of some TV stations and...

    There appears to be nothing in the statutes that have posted here that indicate the owner needs to be given thirty days to improve his horses' situation. Generally in most areas a State Vet is needed to verify that animals are in bad shape. Generally in most areas a State Vet cannot override...

    Re: Doing something--anything--that might help. If anyone is interested in immediately writing e-mails to people who could possibly “make a difference” here is something that might help rescue, in general, and these minis, in particular. The 15th Annual Animal Law Conference is being held...

    Good afternoon. I'm new to this forum and would like to comment. I have three minis, two of whom are rescues from a hoarder. Katieann, I have been reading this forum and I am so impressed and "heartwarmed" by everyone who has stepped up to help these minis. I do agree with you that it IS...
