I applaud Mr. Grant for providing funds for his horse's care and rehab. But "above and beyond?" Let's slow down before we annoint him.
Above and beyond would have been to keep track of his horse, know the name of the person he gave the horse to, tell the JC he was sold wo papers. Above and beyond would be to send additional funds to support the rescue of another horse from that living hell Sugar Creek.
Make no mistake he has not gone above and beyond. He has done an honorable thing accepting responsibility for funding the care of an animal in desperate condition but he SHARES responsibility for how the horse got there. Notice I said resposibility not blame--theres a difference.
If you want to talk about people who go above and beyond how about the amazingly dedicated individuals who go to Sugar Creek every week and try to save horses like him. Or the woman in California who, without hesitation paid for his purchase?
