Authorities Seize 74 Horses from Maryland Farm

[Reble]

Animal control authorities said Sunday they have seized an estimated 74 horses and a 35-acre farm in Sharpsburg, Md., where poor care led to death, illness and malnourishment. Windrinker Farm owner Barbara P. Reinken, 61, denied mistreating the horses but conceded she had more than she could handle.

Eh-hum? Not exactly the best answers in this case.

I'd say when five horse remains are found on the property, she's had "too much to handle" a long time ago.

This type of story scares the dickens out of me.......I pray that I will never reach that stage where pride blinds me from seeing that I need help. And I've read stories like this over and over again, people aren't willing to ask for help and their animals pay the ultimate price. It's heartbreaking........
