This poor old man....

Social Circle, GA(Zone 8a)

This is an email I received from one of my Board of Directors:
Hey everyone...

An 80 yr old man came home to find 8 of his horses shot and 4 killed including a
pregnant mare. His colt has a 22 calibur bullet lodged in his
spine..he is being treated at a vet clinic in pace florida. Please
take a moment to watch the video link and see this sweet old man..my
heart goes out to him..

This is a response to the email I sent the reporter from Pensacola
News Journal.

Thanks so much for your interest in the story. Until an official fund
is set up, you can make donations directly to the animal clinic for
Mr. Davis:
Northwest Florida Large Animal Clinic
6736 Quintette Rd.
Pace, FL 32571
(850) 994-0900


So I just got off the phone with Keith Weekly c/o the Northwest Large
Animal Hospital. What a really nice man.

He verified they have 3 horses there they are "treating aggressively"
and one is scheduled to go to a specialist tomorrow. Mr. Davis' bill
has already exceeded the $4500 mark but they intend to continue
treating the horses.

Any and all contributions are welcome. He asked that a check be memo
with either Mr. Davis's horses or gunshot horses. He was leery that
cash might not make it. Calls during office hours can be run through
their credit card machine and will go directly to the fund.If you
include your name and address he will send you a receipt that he
believes is tax deductible or return your money should the donations
exceed the bills.I told him that I would prefer my donation to be
used for any other unfortunate animal.
