I had the pleasure and privilege of getting to chat with Mr. C.T. Babcock last night of Babcock Ranch in Texas. Those of you that are horse people have heard of or probably even been following the saga of Dual Peppy and some of his offspring that were seized over a year ago and the woman was brought to justice. C.T. was the driving force behind that whole thing. He messaged me last night, much to my surprise. You see, I grew up in the area of Babcock Ranch. I had been by there many times and always looked up to that Ranch. It was everything I always wanted to accomplish in a ranch. It was a very big inspiration to me.
C.T. is also heading up a rescue. It will be at the Babcock Ranch and we had a really nice conversation last night. At this point in time we (many many people) are rallying to see to it that Dual Peppy gets to spend the rest of his life at the ranch. I do not know how the woman that was convicted of such neglect and cruelty got ahold of Dual Peppy but it is my understanding that the man that use to own him had a dying wish for his senior stallions to live their lives out on Babcock Ranch. At this time everyone is trying to get Dual Peppy back to the ranch. I believe that the Babcock's had him at the ranch when the previous owner died.
Anyway, like I said he has started a rescue, not just in Texas, but all over the United States. He travels around investigating allegations and with local officials they come to a conclusion.
C.T. is a very nice man and his heart is definitely in the right place. He loves horses every bit as much as I do.
It was an amazing conversation and I am humbled by the fact that he initiated the chat with me.
Babcock Ranch is one of the Premier ranch's in Texas.
It was truly an honor.
