VANESA HOLDS HER GROUND
AND
JENNY IS SAVED FROM HER ABUSERS
VANESA CVFAF-ARGENTINA ACTIVIST
Jenny was pulling a cart along Espana Street (very busy street in downtown Parana), the load was very heavy, and the weather was very cold. Because Jenny was so underfed and so terribly maltreated, she collapsed…Vanesa, the newest member of the local forum for Animal Advocates which was founded and is run by CVFAF-Argentina, Vanesa was just around the corner from where Jenny had collapsed gathering signatures for the massacre of dogs in the Southern city of Neuquen, when she was told about a horse on the ground, she rushed to the spot with Julieta (a friend of hers), and Celeste a long time member of our forum joined the group that had gathered around Jenny, and they started having arguments with the abusers. Vanesa stood her ground, although she was a bit frightened, as this was her first horse rescue. Celeste ran to get some help from Maria Ines' ( Vice President of CVFAF – Argentina), the police were called, and when they arrived the fire-fighters and some passers by had already helped Jenny up, after she was given some shots by the vet...The photo below is from the newspaper; if you look closely, you can see one of the young boys whipping Jenny trying to get her up.

Jenny iba empujando un carro por calle España (una calle muy transitada en el centro de Paraná), la carga era pesada y hacía mucho frío. Debido a que Jenny está muy malnutrida y tan terriblemente maltratada, se desplomó. Vanesa, la miembro más nueva de nuestro foro local de proteccionistas, estaba a la vuelta de la esquina juntando firmas en contra de la masacre de perritos en Neuquén cuando le avisaron de un caballo caído, ella se apresuró al lugar junto con Julieta (una amiga), Celeste (una miembro de nuestro foro) se unió al grupo y comenzaron a discutir con los abusadores. Vanesa permaneció firme a pesar que estaba un poco asustada ya que era su primer rescate equino. Celeste corrió a buscar a María Inés (vicepresidente de CVFA-ARGENTINA) y a Sonia (pro tesorera de CVFA-ARGENTINA) que se apresuraron al lugar. Se llamó a la policía y los bomberos junto a unos transeuntes ya habían puesto de pie a Jenny, luego que la veterinaria le hubiera suministrado algunos inyectables. La foto debajo apareció en El Diario, y si se mira detenidamente se ve a uno de los jovencitos golpeándola con un látigo para obligarla a pararse. |

Como pueden observar, Jenny está malnutrida y su pelaje se ve descolorido y muy feo, estamos seguros que nunca ha sido cepillada. Ella está en modo defensivo todo el tiempo como si tuviera miedo que la golpearan otra vez. En la foto de la izquierda, el oficial Rubén Colliard con Jenny y en la foto de la derecha Coqui y el Comisario Rubén Bertolami. |

Las fotos de arriba son las últimas que le sacamos a Jenny hoy a la noche en la Comisaría. Jenny tiene una hermosa mantita que la mantiene calentita para que no pase frío. Muchos de los que leen esto no saben que es invierno en Argentina. Se necesitan mantas para todos nuestros caballos. Nos ha informado la veterinaria que Jenny no podrá volver a trabajar nunca más. Por lo que confiamos que la Jueza nos de la tenencia. Para finalizar, hemos bautizado a esta dulce nenita Jenny, en honor a nuestra querida amiga Jenny que vive en Noruega. |

El video de arriba muestra como los oficiales de policía de la División Abigeato toman el control de la situación. Lamentablemente los videos están muy oscuros ya que anochece temprano en Argentina por ser invierno. |

AUGUST 19/2010 JENNY UPDATE
As you can see Jenny looks a lot better, she has had her horseshoes removed; one of her front legs was a bit swollen because of her miscreant owners, but she is now on antibiotics. She's eating very well and looks more vivid. That nice blanket we bought for her is wrinkled and dirty because she loves scratching her back on the ground…She has never been able to do that before as she was always left in her harness… Her mane is looking better, and it's starting to change to a brighter colour. Jenny is getting used to Coqui, so on Saturday Coqui will attempt to brush her mane and her tail and give her a good brushing…It’s almost hard to think that she was on the asphalt almost dead just a few days ago...SEE NEW PHOTOS BELOW.
SEE HOW NICE AND CLEAN HER FACT IS...AND SHE HAS A NEW BRIDLE.
ON SATURDAY HER MANE AND TAIL WILL BE COMBED AND SHE WILL GET A GOOD GROOMING...WE'LL HAVE TO GIVE HER NICE NEW BLANKET A GOOD WASHING.
ABOVE SEE THE LATEST PHOTOS OF JENNY...SHE IS GAINING SOME WEIGHT AND SHE IS SLOWLY LOSING HER WINTER COAT...SHE IS LOOKING GREAT AND IS LOVING HER FREEDOM
