Bio
I currently live in Aiken, South Carolina but am originally from Long Island, New York. I moved here in 1987. I work in the accounting department of a hospital in Augusta, Georgia. I have about six acres and share them with eight dogs - two Great Danes, two Pembroke Welsh Corgis, a Miniature Pinscher, a Doberman mix, a lab mix and a lab/pit bull mix - and three goats. I never really knew much about horses until Barbaro. Since then I have learned so much about laminitis, horse slaughter, nurse mare foals and racing. I hope to be able to adopt one or two horses in the not too distant future.
FOB activities
I have donated to Miracle Horse, Horsefeathers, Shiloh and Pure Thoughts. I sponsored one of the Last Chance Corral foals earlier this year in memory of my goat Charm who died. Since I live in South Carolina, I have been able to visit Pure Thoughts three times. Fitch's story affected me deeply. I have seen Abercrombie and he has come so far since I first saw him. He was very shy and a little nervous and now he is much more trusting and friendly. He really likes treats.
I was at the celebration in Delaware and got to meet so many wonderful FOBs. I never knew that there was so much abuse of horses. How naive I was. That has definitely changed. I now make phone calls as often as I can while at work and send out emails about slaughter.
FOB Network
I met JESTRI while in Delaware. I also met Carol (crreiss) the other day at Pure Thoughts. I am a member of Team Barbaro and met Michelle who is our team leader while at Pure Thoughts this past weekend, as well as Terry.
