Just heard that a horse has been 'forgotten' about and left alone at an abandoned livery yard (same yard I was on several years ago). The owners of the yard live abroad, (I have no further details of their whereabouts) and had let it to what was the YM when I was there. This YM was, shall we say 'different'. I left after a good 6 months, and rumour has it, she got asked to leave sometime earlier this year due to her behaviour.
Most of the livery owners had clearly found other yards, but the owner of this lone horse (I do know the horse from when I was there) had asked the YM to care for it. (I think they are also abroad), quite possibly this horse was left to the YM. YM has taken hers but left this one. Mare been on her own now for a good few weeks, since the horse transporter picked up her companion (owned by another person, and unaware of leaving just one behind.
I feel so tempted to A) go and check for myself, B) if this story is true (good authority it is, literally just been told by a good source) that I go and take the mare to ''my yard'' to care for her, - but can I do this? As far as I know, I'm the only one who knows the mares name!
I'm worried about the water supply... it can freeze/be turned off, or it's manual in which case she won't have any! Poor thing.
Really worried actually... Shocked too. Poor mare.
