We had seen this horse several times over the winter, always standing just like this, in all kinds of weather, including rain, snow, and very cold temperatures. I finally photographed it with the intent of getting the Humane Society after the owner. I have always felt badly that I didn't follow through with it, but perhaps someone else did since the horse was gone a couple months later. The following year we saw a very similar horse on another nearby farm, looking well fed and groomed but a bit scruffy, and sort of out of place among a group of big, beautiful Belgians; I like to think it might have been the same one, rescued by someone with the capability to care for it.
