𝗛𝗢𝗪 𝗪𝗘 𝗕𝗥𝗢𝗨𝗚𝗛𝗧 𝗜𝗡𝗗𝗬 & 𝗪𝗜𝗟𝗟𝗢𝗪 𝗛𝗢𝗠𝗘 — 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗛𝗢𝗪 𝗔 $𝟭𝟬,𝟬𝟬𝟬 𝗥𝗘𝗪𝗔𝗥𝗗 𝗜𝗦 𝗛𝗘𝗟𝗣𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗡 𝗠𝗢𝗥𝗘 𝗛𝗢𝗥𝗦𝗘𝗦! Now that Indy and Willow are safely back with Mareworthy, we want to share more about their return and express our gratitude to the incredible people who helped make it possible. First, an extraordinary thank-you to @westlakeracing for generously offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to the mares' safe recovery. 🎉 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗪𝗘 𝗛𝗔𝗩𝗘 𝗦𝗢𝗠𝗘 𝗜𝗡𝗖𝗥𝗘𝗗𝗜𝗕𝗟𝗘 𝗡𝗘𝗪𝗦! The individual whose information helped us locate Indy and Willow didn't want the reward for themselves. Instead, they requested that the entire $10,000 be donated to the @kentuckyhorse to support its efforts coordinating care for the additional horses from Marlo Matheny's property who are currently at the Boyd County Fairgrounds. Westlake Racing Stable honored that request, and the donation has been made! 💜 We cannot adequately express our gratitude to the individual who helped us locate the mares, to Westlake Racing Stable, and to the people who kept Indy and Willow safe and cared for during the week before their return. ⚖️ We also want to give a very special thank-you to 𝗢𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗮 𝗚𝗶𝗹𝗸𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗮𝘁 𝗩𝗮𝗻𝗔𝗻𝘁𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗽 𝗔𝘁𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆𝘀 𝗟𝗟𝗣 for helping Mareworthy navigate an incredibly complicated legal situation and ensure that the mares' return was handled through the appropriate legal channels. We're equally grateful to the law enforcement officers, investigators, media outlets, and thousands of people across the country who shared photographs, provided information, and helped keep these two mares visible. 𝗩𝗜𝗦𝗜𝗕𝗜𝗟𝗜𝗧𝗬 𝗜𝗦 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗧𝗘𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡. Because Mareworthy continued sharing Indy and Willow's stories long after their adoptions, people knew their connection to our organization and knew whom to contact when concerns arose. That visibility gave us the opportunity to begin taking steps to protect them before this situation became public. There are aspects of their recovery we cannot discuss publicly, but we're sharing more of their story in this video, including why following the legal process was so important. 💜 𝗪𝗘 𝗦𝗧𝗜𝗟𝗟 𝗡𝗘𝗘𝗗 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗦𝗨𝗣𝗣𝗢𝗥𝗧. While we're incredibly relieved to have Indy and Willow back, the financial impact of this effort is significant. Mareworthy has incurred substantial legal expenses, travel costs, and other recovery-related expenses over the past week. We're also preparing for veterinary examinations, diagnostics, and ongoing care to evaluate and address both mares' health and nutritional needs. As a volunteer-run nonprofit, these are substantial expenses for our organization, and we would be incredibly grateful for any support you can provide as we continue caring for Indy, Willow, and the other Thoroughbred mares who depend on Mareworthy. 🎁 𝗗𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗧𝗘 𝗧𝗢 𝗠𝗔𝗥𝗘𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗧𝗛𝗬: mareworthy.com/ Every contribution helps us continue our mission of protecting Thoroughbred mares through data, education, and visibility. For now, Indy and Willow are safely back with Mareworthy, receiving the attention and care they need, and we're incredibly grateful. And thanks to the generosity of some extraordinary people, 𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗜𝗥 𝗥𝗘𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗡 𝗜𝗦 𝗡𝗢𝗪 𝗛𝗘𝗟𝗣𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗢𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗥 𝗛𝗢𝗥𝗦𝗘𝗦, 𝗧𝗢𝗢. 💜 #BringIndyAndWillowHome #Mareworthy #VisibilityIsProtection #anindiananight #willowamina
