Turn 3 Ranch wonders if "Moose" -- one of the horses taken from Turn 3 -- ended up in the kill pen at Shipsy. An identical mare was recently spotted there. http://turn3.freelief.com/?page_id=2244

Everyone thinks they know it all when he comes to horses (including a lot of owners). Sad, most that think they know it all - don't know the most important elements of horses.

For nearly two years of exposing the county government’s horrible mistakes in seizing the Turn 3 Ranch, I’ve been countering the same basic argument from time to time, phrased in different ways: “The county wouldn’t have taken the animals if they weren’t in danger.” If you think that...

I am so tired of hearing the same old lies. My grandchildren rode those horses and they never saw the horses in piles of junk ect. The horses that they had an issue with were already in the barn being given extra care. If they wanted a vet to see them, Matt would easily had called one in. What got these guys in trouble was a dead horse by the ... Read Morefront road and a lot of junk also in the front. Their "expert" didn't realize that's what you do with a dead horse in winter, pull it up to the road and call someone to dispose of it properly.Jackson Co., MI doesn't have garbage service. My uncle rented this land back in 1963 and in the house burned down May 1977so no one lives there and people drive up under the trees and dumb trash, they don't bother to go back to the fense and throw it over where the horses are. They want to dumb and get away fast. This is rented land and the horses were separated from the front which wasn't used by the renters.
