Baltimore Area Eventing 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. People interested in helping can search for report number NR0022465, or use this direct link on the NetPosse.com site: http://www.netposse.com/view_report.asp?reportid=2465.  

“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.”

Tucson, Arizona: In every Horse Master episode, Julie Goodnight works with a horse and rider—helping them reach their horsemanship goals together while she offers up her practical and kind advice. In its seventh year on RFD-TV, the award winning Horse Master with Julie Goodnight show’s cast and crew is heading to Tucson, Arizona and the White Stallion Ranch (www.WhiteStallion.com). This is your chance to be a cast member on the show and to work with Goodnight at this premiere guest ranch. Applications are due now! Deadline: February 5, 2015; shoot week is March 8, 2015.

 

Apply online now for the March shoot and find more details about what it takes to be in the cast at www.HorseMaster.tv. Goodnight will choose a variety of cast members—those working on advanced riding maneuvers, those with challenges during ground work lessons, and those who would like to overcome obstacles on the trail or in the show ring. English and Western riders are welcome to apply. The set is closed to all but those selected to be on camera.

 

Goodnight travels with her production crew to new locations throughout the year. She’s thrilled with the thought of shooting at a ranch where she and her cast and crew can relax and enjoy the scenery after long working days. The crew (led by producer/director Heidi Nyland Melocco of The Whole Picture, LLC as well as Stephen Schott of 12Basket Productions) coordinates and records eight episodes during one “shoot week.”

 

Goodnight says she’s always ready to head to the warm, sunny Southwest for at least one shoot each season and the White Stallion Ranch is just the place.  This is the crew’s fourth shoot at the ranch and all are eager to work together once more.

 

As with all episodes, the eight shows shot at White Stallion Ranch will air on RFD-TV (DirecTV channel 345, Dish 231, and on cable through AT&T Uverse) then be available to watch online on Goodnight’s online video library: http://tv.juliegoodnight.com. A new show airs each Monday at 2:00 and 10:00 pm ET.

 

The True family’s White Stallion Ranch has over 3,000 acres of wide-open land and is based at the foot of the Tucson Mountains, adjacent to the Saguaro National Park. The Horse Master cast and crew will shoot at the main ranch and plans trail riding episodes to make the best use of the scenery. If you’re selected for the cast on this closed set, you’ll be treated to reduced rates to stay at the ranch.

 

Those wishing to stay and play after shoot week may participate in the ranch’s activities including guided trail rides and even time working cattle (it is a working Longhorn cattle ranch). You can also see where Western Movies such as Arizona with William Holden and How the West Was Won with James Arness were filmed.

 

The next Horse Master shoot is scheduled for summertime in Colorado. If the crew is headed your way, make sure to alert your horse-loving friends. Being a member of the cast can be a life-changing experience—with time spent with Goodnight and her well-organized staff who will guide you throughout the casting and shoot-week experience.
