Name: Scarlett Gender: Mare Species: Horse Breed: Friesian Sporthorse Description: The owners of this Friesian Sporthorse are worried sick. It’s believed she was taken sometime last night (5/27/21) from her home pasture in Lugoff in Kershaw County. Scarlett was most likely (verified by the search and rescue bloodhound team) loaded into a trailer at the back gate of her pasture. Black River Search and Rescue Inc tracked her to the road and they believe she left in a stock-type trailer. This is on a dead-end road. A state work crew was doing maintenance on the shoulders of the road and saw a Ford 350 dually with a white bumper pull horse trailer leaving the area at around 10:00 am. Area Last Seen: Lugoff , SC, 29078 Date Last Known: 5/27/2021 Contact

From Camden SC Equestrians Facebook group: Well apparently some trolls have managed to slip through my membership questions: this post was purely to alleviate any fears that there was a random horse thief on the loose, but I'm afraid that *some* members felt it was their duty to cause drama and shame the already distraught owner. So I will be closing comments on this post, and remind everyone that if you can't play nice and offer something positive to this group you will be deleted and BLOCKED! THANK YOU to everyone who has shared the post about Scarlett and offered prayers and support! Her owner has asked if I would make an announcement on this page in case anyone has missed it through the numerous updates as a lot has happened in 24 hours: Scarlett was NOT taken by random strangers and she is in no danger of entering the auction pipeline. Other local and area horses are NOT at risk. Unfortunately Scarlett has basically ended up in a “custody battle” between her former owner and current owner, but she is safe, loved, and cared for. Please continue to send positive thoughts and prayers that she finds herself back home with her proper owner. Thank you!
