Horses rescued from starvation and neglect --- So happy now!

I just don't understand some people. If you were have trouble feeding and caring for the animals, get help.
I am so glad these horses got help!

I have had her almost 5 years, now ...

Will look for a pic (for comparison) to post later ...

She’s 25 this year and truly is a blessing

They mention the horses having to get their hooves trimmed. YouTube being what it is, it one day brought up search results about a hoof trimmer (totally unrelated to whatever I was searching for). It turns out that it's a really interesting trade! There's a channel callled the Hoof GP which I really enjoy and am subscribed to.

So glad, anyway, that the horses were rescued and now have happy lives.
