Regarding the ponies contact the humane Society and the woman (Betsy Bueno) of Lost Hearts and Souls Horse Rescue in Santa Rosa. Something tells me she will know who to contact. I commend her for her compassion and action. By the way I understand she really needs donations to care for the horse and other animals she's taken in. WHat a great gift to teach your children, donate money in their name, in leiu of yet another toy, for Christmas. A wonderful lesson and many children I know would love to be a part of helping an injured animal. Definitely that kind of horrific abuse should be a felony and they should serve time.

I do not know who to contact, I will try the humane society about some poor little ponies that are in a small area on Petaluma Hill rd. at Two Rock where spring hill rd is. When we went to Peter's pumpkin patch for our halloween pumpkins, we noticed these ponies who are unkept and their hooves are so long that they are barely able to walk. If we had a place to bring them we would offer to take care of them. All we can do is adopt small animals (which we have several times) and notify agencies of suspected abuse. Thank you for taking care of these beautiful creatures and if you have the time, please go check these poor ponies out. Thank you for taking care of Hope and the llama. God Bless You.

And I'm all for a petition to urge the D.A's office to seek felony cruelty against Hope's owner. Who is with me on that?

I was the "parent" of 2 wonderful loving cats, until they were takin from me by the cars in santa rosa. I would do anything, (almost) to bring my precious soul mates back into my life. I will eventually get a new pet, but it saddens me that this society can do that to an animal we promised to take care of. I would just like to give my condolensces to that poor-helpless horse.
