IDAHO ALERT - Washington State - Stolen APHA 3 Week Old Filly - Spice


The EPN in partnership with Stolen Horse International, SHI, distributes through
the EPN online announcement only newsletter stolen horse alerts known as "Idaho
Alerts" named after SHI's founder Debi and Harold Metcalfe's beloved horse
Idaho, who was stolen in 1997. The Metcalfe's utilized the power of the Internet
& the volunteer effort of thousands of people from around the world who helped
the Metcalfe's in their desperate search for Idaho. Their efforts paid off
almost a year to the day of Idaho's theft when a flyer posted in a convenience
store led to the discovery of their beloved Idaho in another state. SHI was born
out of the Metcalfe's desire to help other horse owners who were also the
victims of horse theft.

Today SHI is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that boasts a recovery rate of
51% for stolen horses that have been reported stolen to SHI within one day of
being stolen.

Please join the EPN & SHI in helping to bring stolen horses home to their
rightful owners!

Idaho Alert Action!

When you receive an Idaho Alert pass the Alert on to as many of your friends,
family & co-workers as you can.
Print out the Idaho Alert flyer & post it anywhere people may see it. SHI flyers
posted in convenience stores, beauty salons, grocery stores & horse auctions
have led to the recovery of stolen horses, often several states away from the
original theft.
Contact your state's equine council, state and national horse organizations &
ask them to join the Idaho Alert System.
Make sure to visit SHI's website to view more flyers of stolen horses.
