    Horse Rescue up the Renshaw

    Glad you got these pics up so quickly Birgit, for everyone that cared and helped. It should be something really special to see what a difference they made to these two horses!

    Horse Rescue up the Renshaw

    I haven't heard how the money donated is actually being handed out besides the intended directions, for example, refunding the volunteers for their time, fuel, resources etc., and who is in charge of this. And I could be speaking out of tongue on this one, but I personally know a lot of those...

    Horse Rescue up the Renshaw

    I understand that you feel disappointed, and as you mentioned they arrived on December 24, and that was when I was contacted. I told the fellow who kindly delivered them that I would arrange to pick them up when I got back to town. The horses were here at that time. When I contacted a member...

    Horse Rescue up the Renshaw

    I received a phone message that the supplements had arrived to a local home on Christmas eve. I returned the phone call and advised that I would come pick them up when I returned to McBride ( I was away for Christmas ). In the meantime, the horses were hauled to PG SPCA, and I enquired about...

    Horse Rescue up the Renshaw

    Hahaha! Great Idea! They will actually end up being a hindrance because they have to be given a ride in and out by guys that would otherwise be shoveling!

    Horse Rescue up the Renshaw

    That would be great, and for sure save the money! I believe someone may be bringing Matt's new sled from Wainwright for him in the next couple of days? He hasn't been able to get it because he's been busy up the hill and now Christmas is descending on us......so could someone verify if they...

    Horse Rescue up the Renshaw

    Hi Ken, thanks for the suggestion, it was one of the first we thought of, but a vet must administer this, and after their visit and inspection felt it wasn't in the best interest of the horses (and certainly wasn't in the best interest of those digging either!!! Haha!) I agree this would have...

    Horse Rescue up the Renshaw

    Please feel free to visit my page. Sara Olofsson. It shows the depth of the trenches with people in them for reference. Those photos of the Renshaw are nice but it shows the open riding areas that everyone uses, not the actual area the horses were trapped in. Hope that helps.

    Horse Rescue up the Renshaw

    I just can't help it.....(putting my position in this issue aside and strictly coming from personal opinion).....good idea, let's just shoot the horses.... perhaps that is what we should do to the next rider that comes in and gets himself or his sled stuck, and a bunch of people donate their...

    Horse Rescue up the Renshaw

    No one is trying to "keep this quiet" and of course any and all help is appreciated, we are simply trying to approach it day by day. And of course the media, and it's potentially positive effects have been and are considered. We are all just trying to respect the guys out there putting in the...

    Horse Rescue up the Renshaw

    Ok, everyone, here's the update. The SPCA is sending out a vet and 2 constables today to assess the horses condition and the environment they are in. Matt, Dave, and Stu will be supplying the snowmobile ride up. As mentioned before, helicopters are in the balance and ready if need be, with of...

    Horse Rescue up the Renshaw

    So here goes....I am still waiting for my first and original post to be approved as many of all these questions will be answered in there. The horses are there....they are alive.....and in consentual agreement that they have enough left in them to be helped.....of course putting them down was an...

    Horse Rescue up the Renshaw

    I would like to clarify and explain for all those concerned, the situation for the horses up the Renshaw. I was called 3 nights ago by a local reporter and horse lover Birgit Stultz, advising me of the fact that two horses had been seen up the Renshaw close to the cabin. She was looking for...
