Stolen Kiger?

[kigerkrazy]

I found this on the craigslist here in Humboldt County CA. It says there was a Kiger gelding stolen out of Nevada and is being "hidden" here on the North Coast. Anyone know about this? Very disturbing.

I posted on my facebook..what a frightening experience I hope he will be found soon and returned home.

if she has a signed lease contract plus the proof of ownership she needs to file a stolen horse report with the landy and her ex on it let the cops go after them...and also contact net posse

[kigerkrazy]

I wrote them an email but haven't heard anything back. I suggested calling the local farriers and putting them on alert as well as contacting the Sheriff's department. Somebody is probably doing their horse's feet and might be able to call law enforcement when they come across the horse.

If someone stole my horse, I would be plastering every stable, pasture, street light and feed store with an ad for a stolen horse!!!! Not to mention raising a little you know what with the local law enforcement. I can't even imagine........

[fantasykiger]

I am going to chip all my horses, and I too would be plastering all vets, feed stores, and law enforcement agencies. This is so scary.please keep us posted.

A big reason we brand and the brand is BIG and hard to alter...

[fantasykiger]

This missing horse has a brand as well as the freezer mark, I never considered that someone would go as far as altering a brand, but anything is possible. I do hope that the horse finds it way home soon.

The whole situation seems really unclear. A lot of weird posting was going on and everything was flagged as soon as it was up. Apparently the horse was on lease to someone. From what the posts said, the owner had a large stable bill that went unpaid. The leasers took it upon themselves to "rehome" the horse and the owner is calling it theft. At least, that is what I gather from the posts. Anyway, I hope this horse has a good home where ever he is and any injustices get resolved.

I saw that happen once. If someone else, like a trainer, is paying for your horse's board be sure to visit often, or even better, pay your own board directly.
