by the looks of the pic, he was alive and standing when they found him so I'm sure with lots of rehydration, food and shelter, he will make it just fine..I hope the owner gets in big trouble. Just b/c times are tough doesn't mean you can't find a way to at least water your horse or call the shelter to come get it. Those disgusting, worthless people who take in animals and then just forget about them are really no better than people who abuse their kids.

Before owning a horse, you need to research the factors it takes to care for an animal like this. It not like a dog or cat and you can just throw scraps and any 'ol feed to it. They require special treatment, some more than others. Please take time to visit warmhearts.org to learn more a/b donating your time, money or supplies. Also check with your local shelters for any assistance needed.

The owner of the horse should be placed in that same field with fencing put around it and lets watch him try and survive the same conditions that the horse had to survive in. Give the horse to someone if you are not going to take care of it.
