EQUINE INFORMATION
OVERGROWN HOOVES
One of the most common neglect issues reported to the Equine helpline by members of the public is overgrown hooves.
The Equine helpline will contact the Mairie of the commune where the horses are kept. With the owner of the equine and the Mairie, we are able to bring about the required outcome - trimmed feet! If this doesn't work, we involve the DDETSPP - SPA who can get the gendarmes on the case - usually to great effect !
Some examples of horses successfully re-homed by the Phoenix Adoption team
“Little and Large” (actually Bredo and Caramel) were from different locations - but now live very happily together
These two arabs were re-homed from entirely inappropriate living conditions and transported to their ‘horse paradise’
If anyone out there feels they can offer refuge - temporary or permanent - to neglected equines, please do not hesitate to contact us
