About This Image

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.

This is so sad, how could anyone leave an animal in such a terrible state for so long, I remember seeing one once where it's feet curled, but I dont remember where, How can people willing let an animal suffer. I hope that this guy was rescued and given a better life.

This image made me cringe. I'm guessing that this horse disappeared because it dies or was sold to a slaughter. Really sad situation The title is appropriate.
