| NMLB Seizes 10 Peruvian Pasos |
 |
| Mare & foal |
|
|
On Friday, April 24th, 2009 FCER assisted the New Mexico Livestock Board in the seizure of 10 Peruvian Pasos in Cuba, NM. Five mares, four yearlings and one 3 week old colt were removed from the owners property and placed in the custody of Four Corners Equine Rescue. The horses are all currently at Animal Haven Clinic undergoing evaluations and initial rehabilitation treatment.
FCER has been following this case for about 2 months, while the NMLB gave the owner the opportunity to rehabilitate the horses. Due to lack of progress, the decision was made to remove them.
The owner has been charged with animal cruelty.
As a 501(c)3 organization, FCER receives no funding from any government source to facilitate the rehabilitation of these neglected horses. Please consider making a donation to assist our efforts.
