The
Darke County Humane Society has 14 horses that they need to place
very soon. This is NOT a Cruelty
case, it is an older couple,
he
is terminally ill and they are not able to care for the horses anymore.
Most
are okay weight wise,(some a little thin, but not bad) but need
farrier
work.. They are quarter horses, some paints.
There
are 2 young stallions, 1 older stallion and 11 mares -- all have
been
running in the pasture together and we are pretty sure the mares
are bred -
how could they not be right?
Part
of the problem is that while they are friendly, they do not know
what
a halter is or how to lead.The
couple was going to give them
away
to a guy who is a dealer and they were afraid he would take
them
to slaughter... and they just want them to go to a good home.
