For the 2nd time in as many months, some has anonimously turned me in to animal control / code enforcement. Same claim.. starving animals. They added this time that one of my horses was missing an eye.
Each time someone does this.. ode enforcement comes out, tacks up a big red 'VIOLATION' poster on my fence.. then when I get home I have to call them.. schedule an appt ment for them to come out and inspect the place, take pics.. etc. Each time the case is always closed immediatly. Animals are fine.. have food, shelter, hay, water, etc, etc.
of the 3 horses ont he property, 1 is a class A mini, and actually kinda FAT. the other is a 17yr old buckskin in perfect shape. the other is a 30yr old sorrell in GREAT shape, sans an eye. had to have it surgically removed a few ys ago.. ( twas not a CHEAP operation at an equine hospital.. IE.. MULTI-thousand $$ care )..
Either the general public are pure 100% MORONS or someone is out to get me in my community and keeps reporting me. making me take time off work to go handle the situation, contact AC/CE and get pics taken and the case closed.
each time i ask them who turned me in, and they keep telling me that for regular complaints they take a name.. but for cruelty complaints they don't.
I gotta find a way to fix this.. Perhaps at the ounty level.. get the ordinance changed.. this just ain't working if anyone can go and faile a false police rport, repeatedly. cuz that's what it is in essence.. a police report. the AC people cary guns and can arrest you and cite you and haul you into court.
There HAS to be a penalty for filing a false report???
just got back from my farm having to take care of that.... blew my morning...
