Yesterday morning we went to catch four loose horses, two had been returned to their owner and we caught the other two. Two piebald cob fillies, about 12 months old, maybe a little younger. We took them to where their friend was tethered and put them in someone elses field as there was no where else.
Later we saw them loose on the road again, the moron of an owner trying to get them to follow him by rustling A FAG BOX!! He said that someone had stolen their chains and let them loose, so hubby asked why the otherone was still tethered if someone was stealing the chains,that ones not his pony apparently.
There was a horse killed on the road in this area very recently, but he just lets his horses roam about where they please!!
The council land they are tethered on is covered in half burried barbed wire from a fence that used to be there.
When he said someone stole the horses chains i told him that tethering was a cruel way to keep them, and they should be loose in a field. He gave me a look that could have killed but diddnt say anything, probably didnt want us to take the headcollars off the horses that we had just caught again. Funny they came to us, but walked away from him.
I havnt had chance yet to go and see if the poor things are tethered again.
Makes you wonder why these people have horses at all, they dont give a monkeys what happens to them.
