Arabian Auction in Molalla, OR

Thought I'd pass this along. It's a sad situation that got these horses into pretty bad condition but with the help and assistance of some volunteers, they are healing and getting back on track. Here's your opportunity to help out too.

Just to let you know, Dawn (503) 829-2152 has 22 of Virginia Winters' horses and they will be going on sale November 8th.

A total of 22 horses have been abandoned at various locations by Ginger Winter over the summer. There has been Chattel liens placed on every horse as required legally. They will all be up for auction by silent bid. Highest bidder takes the horse.

Viewing and bidding will begin At 1:00 and end at 3:00. Call Dawn 503 829-2152 for address and any questions. Dawn lives in Molalla.

Early on in this neglect case against Ginger I was able to sell several of her horses to new homes, I have one myself. Dee has turned out to be my kids favorite trail horse, she is the horse we put beginners on for a trail ride. Once she figured out she was going to have breakfast and dinner everyday she settled right in with the herd, she has become a sweet addition to our family, She seems truly thankful for her own family.

I have have had experience with several of these horses, Ginger bought quality Arabs and half-arab pintos, many of the horses are registered and can be transferred to the new owner thru the arab registry. Several of the horses have been ridden down the trail and a couple have even been professionally shown.

The goal is not to make a lot of money, but to get these horses in to a good home. Please forward this e-mail to all your big hearted horse friends.
