... and if not helped at least put out of their misery..... as much as I hate to say it, it is possible that they wont be able to be nursed back to health....
 
Great to hear that BHS are there and willing to take the horses in.I hope the RSPCA get over there asap and enable the BHS to take the horses.Failing RSPCA don't Trading standards also have the right to seize horses? Would it not be worthwhile the BHS contacting them about this.
 
lexie I think so to but thats still better than being left. If all this has done is made the RSPCA actually get out there this morning rather than tommorrow or sometime after the weekend and be nagged at by other people in the know like the BHS welfare then I think thats excellent.

As Nick said earlier we could set up a donation page on just giving? Like godiva?

Ditto! I don't have loads of money (I'm not great at saving my pocket money!) but I'm willing to chip in!

so IF the RSPCA dont turn up today....esp whilst BHS are there what then?...can't police allow removal of these animals if a welfare office says they need to??? instead of waiting for the unrealiable to arrive in their own time....the horses don't look like they have much of that left.......sadly ;-(((

Journalist has taken pictures and is observing, but seems BHS don't want the press involved...

This pony is 37, has hardly any teeth but looks like this...

That old chestnut pony is neglected and starved, end of.

Exactly, yes, I agree this horse is old and may have no teeth, BUT there are ways you can get feed/fibre down them - no excuse for the owner to let this happen nor is there any excuse to let his feet get in the condition they are in.
 
Got another email from BHS!

Thank you for keeping me updated. Things are moving very quickly now and plans are being put in place – we will get them sorted don’t worry. Not quite what I had planned for today but I’m thrilled we are able to do something to help these poor animals. Please excuse the rushed email – obviously my priority at the moment is getting these horses helped so not got much time for emailing!

As I said earlier trading standards can enable removal of horses.They are the only legal body apart from the RSPCA who can do so.
