What is the main responsibility of every owner who buys or adopts a horse? It is to take care of it in the best way possible. As long as it was your decision to buy it and take care of it, then you have to make sure to provide your horse with the best living conditions. Horses give us so much love and possibility, almost all horse owners agree that one of their best decisions in life is getting a horse.
I have to agree with them as well. Horses make us feel in a way that no other animal nor humans make us feel. Simply for this fact, they deserve all of our love and attention as well. That’s why I feel really bad when I get to see horses in very difficult conditions, especially when it comes as a consequence of abuse by people who do not care for animals at all. Unfortunately, there are a lot of people out there who are treating animals very bad and it is a global problem.
What bothers me, even more, is the fact that the majority of countries are not doing anything to stop this. On the other hand, I am glad that there are people and organizations who are making such huge progress towards animal welfare as they are saving a lot of animals out there, one of which is the horse in the video below. Monty the horse was found locked in a stall and his rescuer did not know what to expect from him. He was imprisoned for a very long time and his only friends were the flies that circled around him. Travis Underwood found Monty in a filthy stall, where he probably spent years from the way he looked.
The poor horse was frightened and didn’t know what was going on because for the last few years his owner was only throwing him some hay and water. Monty was badly bitten by flies and was denied hoof care, vet care, and grooming. Luckily, Underwood rescued him and took him to a sanctuary. It took a lot of time for Monty to recover and trust humans again but thanks to Underwood, everything became possible. Please have a look at the video below and share some love for Monty.
