My frind did a 9 hour round trip yesterday to pick up a horse that she had paid for 6 weeks ago. The owner had several excuses as to why the horse couldn't be collected so yesterday she set off to wales to collect him. The owner had said that he was not as well covered as she would have liked. What greeted my frind was a total shock.
He is 12 years old and very poor. Needless to say my friend loaded him up and brought him home. It turns out he is one of the 60 horses stranded in floods back in december. I have found pictures of him stuck in the floodwater and swimming out. What this lad has been through I dread to think but he will be seen by a vet and looked after from now on! His coat is scurfy and covered in bald patches. We have checked for lice and he is clear. At least we can slowly get some weight on him over the next few months. He is a real sweetie.
