Miniature Horses in California and Alabama, and a pony in New York, have been reported stolen, said an alert from Stolen Horse International, Inc., aka NetPosse.com.

In Mendocino County, Calif., two Miniature Horses, a black stallion known as Legs and a black and white pinto mare called Crystal, were allegedly stolen the morning of Sept. 11, around 3:00 a.m. A neighbor later recalled seeing a truck and trailer parked on the side of the road around 9:30 p.m. the previous evening.

When law enforcement officers arrived and did a preliminary check of the property, it was determined that this was a theft and not an escape. It was apparent that the stallion had been led from his pasture past the rest of the broodmare herd, from which Crystal was taken, as the mares’ pasture gate was left open.

The owners believe the miniature horses were stolen by someone who knew their value and was either familiar with the property or had perhaps had time to survey the layout prior to the theft. There is a suspect in the case, but no possibilities are being ruled out
