The Adventures Of Phonytales! Weeeeeeeee!!!!!!

*




Geez, where oh where to start....Ponytales....Phonytales....

Laurie first walked on the scene of ABR not to long after it's birth, singing praises of herself from the beginning. Naturally it wasn't long before she too decided to become a "rescue" since she found a place where others fed into her....someplace she could feel important....like so many of the other failed rescues that found ABR did.

She walked onto ABR claiming to be a certified vet tech and an equine nutritionist....neither of which turned out to be true.....and still follows suit to this day with half truths and make believe.....but fortunately for her, a vast majority of the FOB's don't have a clue.

I copied the most valuable lines in her posts because of past history, Phonytales has a habit of deleting and "fixing" her posts and web site when people point out the inaccuracies. My own personal comments are those in green........as of right now, everything underlined is clickable and it will take you directly to Laurie's own words.

July 5th, 2007

I am a certified vet tech who has specialized in large animals for 12 years, I also have a degree in Equine Nutrition  (ironically enough, Phonytales also claims in this post "I would rather not be a 501(c)3 rescue"....but since becoming has harped on the fact you should be one to be "legitimate".... )

July 27th, 2007

Not only am I a vet tech but I also have a degree in Equine Nutrition There you go again!

January 2nd, 2008

I did not say that I was a CVT, LVT or RVT (Certified, Licensed or Registered Vet Tech) Sorry sweetie....you did say it, at least twice before you were busted....

I have an Equine Nutritional Consulting Business with MANY very happy clients. Was I enrolled at Cornell University? No. Did I study their curriculum, listen to their lectures, read their notes, and do everything that their students did? Yes. Does that make me an expert or earn me a degree? Most certainly not. Then why lie about it? And where are all these many happy clients? You certainly haven't made any mention of them in years.......and God knows you can't blow your nose without telling someone!


Just another funny....on January 24th 2010 she also claims to have been a "professional trainer" at one time....LMAO....I'd bet my last dollar that is another lie. She's posted videos of herself riding and lunging horses and there isn't anything professional about her! Scary....Yes! Professional, No! Of course you guys remember "Jed" that was so horrid he had to go, yet he did great with someone else......


January 3rd, 2008


This whole post is hilarious....but this is the best LOL of them all.....Which is why I choose to keep my rescue small, and not take in anything that is difficult to manage. That apparently didn't give you enough notoriety with your FOBots!

November 29th, 2009

We try to take in VERY needy rehabs only. Just another 180 folks....nothing new here...

And this thread from November 30th, 2009 is just a frickin HOOT! And this.....LOL.

Oh, and remember her now deceased stallion? Remember her having the web page offering his breeding services and when busted for it she claimed it was "just a joke"....sure it was dear! Unfortunately this is one of those things you can't link to, you had to be around with the posts being on the old ICERs and her immediately deleting the web page....but fugly did do a piece on her and her stallion.....

I could play this game all day of things she said then changed her story or altered it to make the FOB's happy over the years....I think a good majority of you have already caught on though.

So now she's closing....or is she? It's so confusing she doesn't even know what she's doing. God forbid she'd have to pay off the final bills herself for the mess she has created. With 6 less mouths to feed and running her "boarding business" you'd think paying off the mere $3000 she claims to owe a breeze. But why do right when you can stay a 501c3 and still ask for money and have those bills paid for you.

And what happened to this? Posted on ICERs March 26th, 2011....

Lastly I have things going on in my personal life right now that also require my time, and are also the reason for the much needed downsize, unlike others I keep my personal life personal and don't use it to garner support and sympathy.

It didn't take long at all for this 180 to happen! A disgruntled board member makes a post and the full blown pity party begins!

I'm not getting into anything else, but I think it's pretty unfair to tell someone that is fighting a life threatening health condition on top of a health condition that WILL leave them paraylized at some point in their life, that they are whining.


*


No I should not be horseback riding, at all, I shouldn't even be mucking stalls.


But please note that Laurie has no intention of closing her "boarding business"...because she is just fine for that! And the horses are treated like show horses and all :P






*




Again about my motorcycle, it's part of my "bucket list".....I'm going down the list. I won't be getting any better, I'm just hoping not to get worse.




And a clear list for her pity party, which again, she's pretty much done EVERYTHING she has harped on other rescues from doing over the years ;-)



For the record (public record) since I have been being asked questions, this is a list of the reasons why we are trying to close down:
A) Too many horses
B) Not enough money
C) Declining health
D) Volunteer/board member sold house and is moving
E) Board member/contributor resigned
F) Marital Issues
G) Family Issues



Let's discuss F) Marital issues.....hubby was pissed back in 2007 when Laurie only had 8 horses and they were in her own yard at the time.....but she didn't seem to concerned. Why try to make the husband happy when you have so many FOBots to impress!


My husband demanded a divorce a few weeks back. In his words he is tired of taking a back seat to the animals.


Another funny thing is a long time ago, back when the first ICERs was born, Laurie used to email me to share stories of what she had done to other rescues on ABR under false identities. I'm not sure if she thought I was cheeky enough to enjoy her drivel or she was trying to make nice hoping she never popped up on this blog.


I think we can all agree here that I can't stand Debbie from the old Mustang Hearts and wouldn't piss on her if she were on fire....but I also find some of the things Laurie did to her to be some of the most the most unethical crap I've ever seen in my life. I refereed to it as "wicked evil things" over on ICERs.


This thread "Reaching Desperation Status Here" on ICERs pretty much has it all in there. Unfortunately my old computer with all of the saved emails crashed a while back....and while I do believe it's fixable and retrievable, I couldn't wait any longer to do this blog.

If you'll notice within that thread when I accused her of posting AS Debbie's landowner and she told me how wrong I was because the landowner gave her the info to post...of course she calls the land owner a "she" and I only knew and had the email claiming the landowner was a "he"....so she has pretended to be 2 of Debbie's land owners...not just one! LMAO! Busted twice by her own admission!

Her post to Debbie......

Another post saying how it is all true and she IS who she says she is :-P

And her email to me bragging about it.....

"I would be MikeRID...Her landlord is Mike XXXXXXXX in ID...heeheehee"

I did remove his last name out of a tiny bit of respect since Laurie doesn't have any!

Known ID's of Phonytales (off the top of my head since everything was stored on my now crashed computer)....MikeRID, MireID, MaryKSmith....and myself and others that have emailed have a pretty good idea on a ton of other fake ID's....but since I don't have proof....well you know how that goes!

You can find all kinds of back peddling in that thread along with the resent thread she's started "Elephant in the room"...my absolute favorite is where she says:

Full of myself? Yup I am, call it a personality flaw, disorder, whatever, psychiatrist calls it Histrionic Personality...


And when I agree with her she says:


Actually no, I said I had a Histrionic Peronality according to my shrink, not Histrionic Personality Disorder. Ummmm....excuse me? Shrink says you haz it....which is it again? LMAO....and for anyone not familiar with Histrionic Personality Disorder, please google....it fits Laurie to a T!

Remember Tee from Lifelines? That's one of the bad guys Laurie claims "I tried to tell you!!!!!!" when she went down......but wait! Laurie helped a friend of hers get placement for a horse there and even thanked Tee :-P


Seriously, like I said earlier...I could literally play this back peddle game all day with her posts, both resent and over the years....it's never ending! She can't say the same thing twice!

All in all in conclusion, I think this post made on the last blog pretty much sums up my feelings....

I honestly believe her husband is sick of being a single father and working full time, while she's out fulfilling her "fantasy." Who wouldn't want to play with horses all day, in the name of rescue.

You know he's footing the bill on a lot of this. She never spared ANY expense on these horses. Why keep a 3 yr old horse alive that is barely pasture sound? At what cost financially? The expensive surgeries, two three opinions at different clinics. I don't think she budgeted money very well.

I bet hubby put the hammer down and said "enough." Her kids need a mom, Christ, they're young too. You hardly ever hear her mention them.

The health issues I don't buy. She may have some, but she's playing that up as the reason. She's stated she drinks, is overweight (not knocking that but in regard to health), I would think those things would be a lot more detrimental to someone's health than working around the barn. Physical exercise is good for most conditions.

I dunno, it just sounds fishy. She would have been better off not saying so much, but then again, she's always had a problem with that. Every time she stubs her toe she has to post it. She's just an attention whore. Most people I know that are truly good horse people are modest and don't need a pat on the back every time they pound a nail. She doesn't seem to have an ounce of common sense.


And actually there are a lot of good comments under the last blog if you have the time to read them!

And let's make NO mistake....even though these horses are not skin and bones, they are STILL having to be rescued from a rescue. Before it's to late, after it's to late....it makes no difference....horses have been put into a "rescue" situation where they now cannot be properly taken care of.....all while Laurie has had all the time in the world to tell other people how rescuing should be done and putting herself on a pedestal....THAT's what really chaps my ass!

Phonytails also needs to learn that there is life and rescue outside of ABR! Maybe if she had actually tried to run her rescue right and use her board members (notice they all seem pretty disgruntled!) she probably wouldn't be a failure....a liar? Oh hell yes, she'll never give that up!

Ok, CRAP...I really need to stop now....there are just so many tales to tell.....LOL!

If the "other rescue" is Camelot, is Lorie also collecting money for board and then calling them fostered horses? That is triple dipping.
I want to know where those 2 horses came from and see how skinny they are. Those 2 horses could even be horses Lorie sold and then they dumped them back on her and were starved. Every time she opens her mouth lies fall out.

How many times has any one here seen pictures of Lorie's horses in stalls? She never puts horses IN them so she doesnt have to clean them. I am so sure she begs for money for bedding though and then she uses the money for herself. Just remember, send CASH.

Anonymous said...

Why is she listing herself as "Owner/Operator" on that boarding stable? If she and her husband have enough money/credit to finance that place, how in the world is she having money troubles?

http://mysite.verizon.net/res17erby/id1.html reads:

"About Us

Though Copperfield is a new "home" for us, we have been providing expert horse care for over 15 years. Owner/Operator has worked as a vet tech both in private practice and in race horse rehabilitation. We are experienced in all aspects of horse care and will not turn away special needs horses, lay-ups, or rehabilitation cases."



AND if these two "foster" horses came through Camelot, that means that it is likely that ABR has paid the QT costs on them and now she's double-dipping for pellets?

Why isn't she, the nutrition expert, posting progress photos on these two horses? Why isn't the rescue who saved them stepping forward to claim ownership?

Also, is she QTing horses at the stable? It wouldn't take much for some kid to come see "the new horses" and drag strangles back to her own horse.

I guess she could be QTing them in the garage. I wonder what that looks like now that it's been used as 5 stalls for nearly 5 years (Thanks to ABR 'donating' to pay for the wood to build stalls in a garage).

I bet the rent (lease-to-own payments?) on that stable is not cheap. If she jumped into that last December, when that high-paying BOD member was still on-board, I bet this winter is going to be VERY TIGHT money wise.

With her winning personality and need to stick her nose into everything, I can't see boarders staying long at the rates she charges. Especially if the stalls are not emaculate. It isn't like she can let boarders 'self-board', how would she pay the rent?

I know PT started out in 2007 wanting the ABR to buy her that 400 acre farm... they (ABR) were right to dodge that bullet (IIRC, ICERs thought it was a great idea). Anyone have a link to that thread? It wasn't even 2 months after she joined ABR.

I sure hope she didn't get some other person to foot the bill for this place who has now walked away. She can't exactly cram all those horses into a five stall garage anymore.

Here's hoping that the animals that are there make it to spring okay and that the paying boarders are checking up on their horses through this winter.

OH *SNAP* - PT pulls a MH/TM/(name your grifter here) and dumps ICERs after admitting to double-dipping on already paid for horses!

Guess, she's running back to the Fambileee Fortune.

So the number of horses she has is ten. 2 rescues plus 3 personal = 5
Then 3 Boarders plus 2 fosters = 5

The rest of the ICERs are all falling back into the MLPC-PT Division nicely.

Remember folks, send $$$$ so PT can afford to hire help to take care of the board-paying "foster" horsies. I bet $100 they're Camelot QT horses. Guess we'll never know because the "other rescue" is too ashamed to claim them now.

B&D speaks favorably about PT in post #5 & 7 on page 1 and post #47 on page 3 of this thread on the ICER board.

Everyone has a right to stand behind and support any rescue they choose. It's their money, not anyone else's. They also have a right to speak out against things they find questionable about any given rescue, which is what B&D seems to have done in those posts.

If anyone has a problem with that, it's their problem, not B&D's problem.

There is a grain of truth to what you say for Icer but lest we forget those on ABF have dominated and ruined Icer long ago and the truth of the matter is that if we are not the "in" crowd we do not have rights. We must agree with the very piss-poor and ever dwindling selections of "rescues" and never complain or ask questions. Simply be a good little girl, shut up and send our money?

And Icer has been very disappointing with the very same attitude of mind.

If I had to choose whether to donate to an AB "rescue" or be mugged in NYC, I would take the mugging. The insult is over far quicker and at far less overall cost to my purse, my dignity and my self respect.

Enough said.

Just to set things straight -

The horses are being fed. They may not be getting all of the extras, but they are getting the basics.
The horses are getting watered every day, twice a day!

Diane and some very dedicated friends are working their butts off keeping things going while her sister is in the hospital.
Arrangements are being made to transport almost half of the horses to another facility.
A majority of those being left behind will be going up for auction next month.
Two horses were placed in adoptive homes in the last ten days.

Instead of running your mouth about something you obviously know nothing about -
Why don't you pitch in and offer to help?
Would it hurt you to spend an hour of your time at the rescue doing something to help?
It seems to me that if you can sit at your computer and publish lies about lack of care, then you should be able to get off your behind and volunteer to help.
It takes almost five bales of hay per day (100 lb. bales) to feed the horses at DCR.
So if you get 35 of your closest friends to donate one bale per week, then there would be no worry about if there is feed to give them.

Now you are probably wondering what my association is with Dream Chaser Ranch, maybe you don't care, but I am going to tell you anyway.

A few years ago, we had a mare who was purchased "in foal." There was no due date prediction because we purchased her from someone who had bought her at auction. We were told she was six years old and pasture-raised, so she was not a pocket pet. A few months later at 5:30am, the mare was beginning to deliver. Once the feet and head were out, it was evident the foal was dead. We called the local vets & left messages. We then started calling anyone we could think of to help get this foal out so we could save the mare. A friend of ours came over, assessed the situation, and at 6:15am, not only did he call his sister, he called Diane, who dropped everything to come help a horse in trouble. She didn't know us and did not even care who we were. There was an animal who needed help and she was there!! When the four hour ordeal was over, she asked nothing from us, nor would she accept anything from us, although she had used the last of her banamine to ease our mare's pain. We heard later that she collects aluminum cans (and now clear plastic bottles) to be recycled to help afford extra things for the horses. Since then, we have saved our aluminum cans and when we have two or three bags, we take them over to her. I was extremely angered to hear that somebody had the nerve to steal several bags of plastic bottles in the last couple weeks.

Instead of printing lies - ask your friends to save their aluminum cans and clear plastic bottles (water, juice, clear berry boxes [any plastic container with a number one in the triangle]) to donate to the rescue. Ask your friends to call Shadow Mountain Feed (775) 727-5527 and give them their credit card info and an amount of credit for DCR to get feed with. Call Diane at (775) 513-0945 and arrange feed drop off at the rescue or to give even the smallest cash donation to help. If you know someone who wants to adopt a horse, give her a call.

If you think Stephie is raising $$ for hay by the bale, think again. I'm sure CashCow buys all the hay and they are ALL in on the scam, and Alex and MaryL get a fat cut from CashCow for keeping the board free and clear for them to work it. They have no need for donations, they have a benefactor with an unlimited supply of $$$ that likes to watch them scam and beg and play the game.

CashCow hides behind Beauty Haven for the air of credibility.

==============================
Who is the "in" crowd; the Icers people or the ABR people? It must be foolish of me to believe that everyone who donates to rescues has rights; not just the "in" crowd people, whoever they may be. Call me a country bumpkin but all the postings on here after mine feel like they came from bizzarre land.

We don't have to "agree" with any of the rescues that are asking for money. We don't have to send any money at all. We don't have to do anything we don't want to do. No we don't have to shut up and just send our money. We have the option of just keeping our money to ourselves or donating it to NON ANIMAL causes or burn it or shred it and sprinkle it on our salad or whatever. None of us are anyone's puppets. B&D, like everyone else, can pick and choose who she wants to support and who she wants to trash. I don't care. All I know is, my money is staying close to home and is being spent on family, friends and, oh my God, myself. Do I help animals? Yes, when I feel like it and when I believe there is a need. I've learned that the horse and dog rescue world is full of evil, evil people who would stab their own mothers for that dime and spend their lives trashing any and everyone else that even tries to scam that same dime from themselves. Cutthroat isn't even close to what this "rescue" business really is and I want no part of it. It has become merely an amusement to me, for my reading pleasure that I even try to follow the BS that takes place on all the boards. What a tired joke the rescue people are. This world seems to be imploding and it's about time.

I agree with this statement 100%! Animal rescue is as greedy and corrupt as our government.

Why is Laurie having checks for her "rescue" made out to her husband instead of Ponytales rescue? This is what it says down near the bottom here:



http://pipl.com/directory/name/Cozzolino



"This way we can match you up with an appropriate horse and you are already approved when one becomes ... (Please make check out to Adam Cozzolino. If you do not adopt a horse, ... [ Adoption Form - verizon.net ]"


Why is she wanting people to make out checks to her hubby's PERSONAL account and not a business account like nonprofits are supposed to do?

Anonymous said...

So, looking at the contract that link led to: http://mysite.verizon.net/vzev5k11/id19.html

She only 'protects' the horse for 1 year (after that, it can be sold)

AND, the horses can be bred as long as a vet says they're healthy for breeding.

Why does she think she's responsible for 30 horses? Most have probably been sold on to new homes by now.

Of course, she doesn't have her current contract posted, guess you have to pay the $10 "application fee" to figure out if you're even willing to sign the contract. I'd never pay an application fee if I couldn't see the contract first! I've seen some pretty invasive contracts from some of these rescue nazi types.

To the person who posted that some rescue are totally back-biting, kick their mother under the bus, to get a quarter in donations.... that describes Poneytales to a "T" - just look at how she kept complaining about other horses getting adopted while her horses just sat... wonder if that had anything to do with her contract (or the fact that you can't trust her as far as you could throw her -- and that ain't very far)

Ponytales being among the best of them. She went from horse trader and breeder of low quality horses to "send me $3 for wormer" "vet tech" "professional trainer" "professional rescue".

Looking at that facility, I'd say her 'rescue efforts' paid off big time. God only knows how many forums she was working for each of those rescue horses.

I remember somewhere a while back on one of many of Laurie's legal "rescue contracts" where you had to pay her a rediculously high (around 5000.00) fee if you did not care for the horse as she expected you to. It is no wonder no one wanted to adopt her horses.

hahahaha... MLPC-PT Division (aka ICERS) accidentally let in a troll...

Three Cheers to Laura in NC who posted on page 4 of http://icers.yuku.com/sreply/41103/Elephant-is-back-in-the-room

"I brought the films [of Charlie's knees] to 2 different vets. Neither one could see/find a chip any where on the films provided. [...] Charlie IS experiencing what his films revealed, which was no soundness issues."

AND Ponytales does not deny it! "Sure those words [about chips and only 7-10 good years left] were written, but they preceeded the more accurate diagnose of Charlie's injury. We learned differently when you and I had the films sent out to other more horse specific vets,"

Lauri Brinkworth and Ponytales Rescue played all you donating suckers big time! (Not to mention that she's now throwing that "best team of vets available" under the bus!)

This is too funny!

MLPC-PT Division send money fast. I hear that Laurie needs another hired hand to take care of those two horses (not like she'd use them to take care of the rest of her facility on the Non-Profit's dime or anything!)

No wonder she didn't send the films to Project Sage, their vet would have said the same thing.

No wonder she didn't step up when everyone was accusing Project Sage of injecting a lame horse just to get him adopted.

Ponytales is a real piece of work. She'd rather that horse sit in a pasture than admit that she MADE UP HIS INJURIES!

You ICERs are a bunch of IDIOTS, but go ahead and stick up for your scam queen.

Ponytales translation service:

Per Ponytales: Kendal "She had foundered before we got her and has a pretty good degree of rotation and has also sustained fractures on both her coffin bones."

Translation:
(a) She had a horizontal wave in her hooves from diet change (seen most springs for horses going out to pasture!) So we'll say she was foundered.
(b) Toes were long when imaged and we don't know how to tell the difference between bad farrier and rotated cofin bone.
(c) Fractures? Probably, magic 'fractures' just like Charlie's "several chips in there" that couldn't been seen by anyone but Lauri and her 'best ever vet'. Of course, it could have also been just dirty hooves when the images were done.

In my opinion, that is the only explaination how a horse in the condition described by Ponytales is not on pain management throughout the winter months. (that or that Ponytales is just too cheap to medicate the horse)

But they weren't busted up, she just claimed they were. If they really would have been it would have been less profit because she would have actually had to spend the money on the horse. PG mares were sure to get her tons of attention. Everyone loves a wittle baby, just ask Lin at Epona.

WTF?

Isn't "Ponytale's What the Buck" from her breeder days? Why does she say "He was barely handled when he originally came to us"? Didn't he come from that grey TB that PT got as a "rescue" that was bred and "adopted" to her bestest bestie BFF? Now, at 2.5yrs he doesn't even handle feet well? Most QHs are in competition by 2.5yrs. This one is barely trained and she wants $500 + a contract for him? I thought she wanted a baby from that stud (her excuse for breeding him). Why didn't she keep him as her personal horse, since that is why she was breeding and this is the only one that actually survived her breeding attempts?

Are the other two newbies or give-backs? $600 for a flat work only cribber?

She does realize that, based on her fundraising claims, she'll be spending twice that on each of them just to get them through winter?

Well, she's back to 5 total. Seems like her "all the horses won't bounce at once" was a bit optimistic if she has three back already and we aren't even into winter yet. Look for more in Jan/Feb when hay prices actually go up.

AND, despite collecting all her round bail hay money last year, the rescue put out nearly $2400 to maintain six horses in her back yard? WTF? $400/horse/mo when she's feeding $30 round bales? Even with big time waste, a horse getting 40#/day hay and 6# grain/day would run about $120/mo. Where is the other $280/mo (or nearly $10/day) going? This is for EVERY HORSE, not just the two lame ones!

No matter how you cut it, there is going to be one huge dung pile on that place come spring!

NOW... OTOH, I could totally understand if it was costing her $2400 for all 11 horses there...

Notice that there doesn't seem to be even a single vet bill that wasn't paid for, down to the penny, including gas costs, by fund raising on ABR. So, where does she get off saying that she spent "thousands in personal funds" rehabilitating these horses? She had her hay paid for every winter, she supposedly had those boarder horses to also defray costs (and still has 4 boarders to the 6 rescues). So, I am having a hard time seeing where her family went into the hole on these horses at all.

Also, why didn't she post Charlie's going away photo? Maybe because he was as thin when he left as when he arrived at her place originally.

Also, why is ms vet tech paying a vet to do basic shots and why are horses tranqed for xrays and lameness exams? It looks like everytime that vet touched a horse, she tranqed it with rompum (not a light weight tranq!)

My new bet. Olivia is going to be her personal horse (poor animal) and she falls in lufff with this new stallion and Olivia gets knocked up next spring. Of course, it will be an accidental stud was feeling so good that he jumped out of the pasture deal, but she'll suck it up and run bingo games for the delivery date and naming pool. (At least these two aren't weiner dog looking and the stud isn't a vicious killer horse that had to be rescued because he tried to kill another horse).

What really sucks is the amount she's spent training Olivia could have done the surgery for that gelding twice over. Instead, I guess he's still getting pepper spray on his bandages so he doesn't rip them off while he waits for her to scrounge up money for his surgery.

Her priorities suck.

ICER...Nobody ever said that Sultan didnt have funds, I said Sultan was awaiting his surgery. Sultans previous owner pays all of his bills, they werent able to provide the care he needed because they were working 3 jobs, they surrendered him so that he could go to someone who is capable for caring for him, but take care of his needs while he is here. Again, local case, something you know nothing about but try to pretend or assume that you do.

On her website....http://mysite.verizon.net/vzev5k11/id65.html To date Sultans caretakers have spent thousands of dollars on his care and are simply reaching the bottom of their wallets. They have asked us to help not only in the physical care of Sultan during this time, but with getting Sutan the surgery he so desperately needs. As I said, without the surgery the only option for Sultan is euthanasia.
We have applied for 2 different grants and his caretakers are saving up everything they possibly can, but we are asking, if you can, to please make a donation to help save Sultans life. Every dollar counts and is desperately needed. Anyone making a donation to Sultans care will become one of "Sultan's Saviors" which will entitle you to e-mail updates and photos of Sultan throughout his healing process! Larger donations will get you a full color photo of beautiful Sultan! Please considering becoming a Sultan Savior today! Many thanks!

Ruptured discs and pinched nerves? Are you kidding me? A relatively common ailment that they actually have surgeries for. NOT an automatic sentence to the wheelchair. Anyone who works with horses for long with all the heavy lifting of hay etc is going to have back problems. Heart palpatations are also common. What a hypochondriac she is on top of everything else. My father-in-law BROKE his back twice and guess what? He is not in a wheelchair and he is in his 70's. He does have extreme back problems though. She just makes it up as she goes along. Excuses excuses. She brings all these problems on herself and expects people to bail her out. Or better yet, she hopes people will forget she ever said it.

You can't help but wonder how much it would help if she would loose 50 or 100 pounds. She looks like she's pushing 300 pounds in a lot of pictures. She really should stick to draft cross horses if she's going to ride a horse. That TB isn't built to carry her kind of weight.

Is anyone else concerned that the stud is showing signs of being over fed. Geeze, I sure hope that he doesn't end up dead within the next two weeks. He's only 25, barely past middle aged for an Arab. This woman has been known to over grain in the past and a healthy horse can get by with ulcers, but this is scary.

Icers sure isn't the hive of activity it used to be.

That's because ICERs are the MLPC for Ponytales. If it had been someone who wasn't in their click, the witches would have racked up 10+ pages on just how she's letting that poor gelding stand around in pain and untreated for MONTHS while she pays to train a horse that is already trained.

They'd be cackling about how Phoneytales seems to suddenly be able to go riding almost every day when 6 months ago she was on the edge of being paralyzed.

They're a bunch of hypocritical, harpy old gossips with nothing better to do than be the MLPC for Phoneytales.

Her lates post on ABR
"Update 8/17/2012-
While Abbys Fancy Pants continue to improve weight wise, he continues to decline in his neurological status. We had a phone consult with Pine Bush Equine yesterday and will be testing him for EPM. This evening I was finally brave enough to pick out his front feet really well (he can not stand well on 4 feet, let alone 3). He did fall onto his knees, but I was able to get them totally cleaned out and he has pretty bad white line disease/bacterial infection in his feet. I was able to get some Iodine squirted into the divits before he just couldnt keep himself upright (he was sitting on his hind end and leaning on me heavily with his front end). The farrier is coming out soon, but I just dont know that he is going to be able to do Abby's feet. I am almost thinking that he might benefit from a sling so that we can treat his hooves. This poor guy just really needs to catch a break."

Do the right thing and put the poor horse down stupid! You threatened to euthanize horses with less problems than his. You must be getting lots of donations from the Arabian folks and don't want the $$$$ to come to an end. Next will be a fundraiser for a sling.

Or she could just get a rubber feed pan and let him stand in sugardine solution. "Severe" white line is easily detected without even picking up their feet. Hopefully they pull blood and test his organ functions.

Love how she always says "WE decided" like she has a plethora of people working with her so called rescue. I bet those Arabian people would be dumbfounded to know she threatened to euth horses if no homes were found. Maybe they need the link to this blog.

Ahhh... hahaha.... remember how Phoneytales got a PA Cease and Desist against Mustang Hearts... bet you were so proud about that one Lauri... Now, we see that you have your very own Cease and Desist since Mar 1, 2012. That means that you TRIED to claim you didn't have to register and they didn't buy it.

SOoooo.... you continued to solicit funds from that feed store (in reduced prices) and people... even in the face of a cease and desist... wonder how long it will be before we see your consent agreement online (unless you're going for an adjudication).

Karma... whata bitch she can be.

I wondered what happened to her begathon on ABR, guess that explains it.

Totally off topic but it looks like Lin at Epona got her hands on an Andalusian Stallion and has been breeding her "rescue mares". Another so-called rescue that needs to go down.

I know a few horse rescues that aren't that are not going to like this.

Laurie Brinkworth The adoption fee has no bearing on whether the rescue is legit or not. The statement that if adoption fees are greater than $500 the rescue is suspect is VERY unfair. We have a cap on our adoption fees of $1,500. I've adopted out $15,000 and $20,000 show horses who went right back to showing with their adopter for $1,500. We base our adoption fee on the ability and training of the horse.
April 1 at 7:17am · Like · 3..Laurie Brinkworth Yup, this one always gets me. People are all like, "wow this rescue is awesome, look how many horses they adopt out"! In reality it is the exact opposite. Real rescues that CARE where there horses go are adopting out a few here and there.

So Frog Pond Farm is being hauled in by the Ohio Atorney General's office for complaints about how she scammed people.

When is PA gonna haul Phoneytales back in for her scamming?

Strangely enough she seems to be alive and well for someone who was sooooooo sick.

Still at it calling herself an honest rescue. http://www.gofundme.com/ja16q0
