Baltimore Area Horse Missing After Jumping Fence 
 
UPPERCO, MD, Tuesday February 10, 2015– Monday morning February 9th , a horse is still missing after he jumped a fence at a Baltimore County horse farm near the Carroll County line on Black Rock Road. 
 
Owner Juliana Whittenburg had just sent the 5-year-old grey Dutch Warmblood gelding, named Iron League, from Florida to Maryland for training at An Otherwise Perfect Farm.
 
An extensive search of the area yesterday has failed to find the missing horse. Last seen by a law enforcement officer crossing into Carroll County,  an air search will be added to the ground search already in progress. 
 
“There have been no signs since last night.  Courtney is out searching on horseback on Iron League’s buddy Highspeed in hopes his scent draws him out," says Whittenburg. 
 
Stolen Horse International, Inc. received an online report on its Web site, www.NetPosse.com, filed by Juliana Whittenburg and, in short order, began distributing the information via their NetPosse.com Alerts (the horse community’s Amber Alert) to news media, on the Internet to hundreds of social media groups and to thousands of people in their NetPosse Network in an effort to rally the public to help this horse owner in need. 
 
Iron League does have an International code microchip, which will help prove ownership of the horse when located. Stolen Horse International would like to remind anyone scanning the horse to use a scanner that reads the international frequency.
 
You will find a webpage with information and a printable flyer for Iron League on his NetPosse.com listing, which is where any updates or leads will be posted.

“Iron League’s flyer needs to be posted in all public places since it is possible that someone has seen the horse and does not know who to contact. And remember, not everyone is on the internet, especially in rural areas of the country. It is up to those who are on the internet to print the flyer and make sure these horses are seen in public places,” says Stolen Horse International founder Debi Metcalfe.
 
Circulating Iron League’s flyer and the NetPosse.com Alert nationwide is imperative, as the horse could be anywhere by now. These flyers are the tool that bring home many horses and must be posted in as many public places as possible.
 
“Print a flyer immediately and post it right away!” says Metcalfe. “You never know who will post the flyer that will bring this horse home.”
