😡 Some people shouldn’t own animals

I was staying at a hotel with my fiancĂ© and yesterday afternoon there was a trailer with a horse in it parked out back. We figured it was temporary and they hadn’t unloaded it yet. This morning (like 11am) it was still there with the horse still in it. Upon closer inspection the horse was clearly FAR too big for the trailer and had to stoop his neck to even fit in and he was smushed up against the sides of the trailer. There was no water and the horse was so thirsty it was trying to lick water off the side of the trailer. The floor was covered in poop and filth mixed in with moldy hay which I suppose was his “food”. He was obviously malnourished as he was super skinny. His feet were chipping and obviously hadn’t been trimmed in a long time. He had a crack all the way to his leg (which is SUPER painful if you don’t know). It stormed last night and now it’s below freezing and he’s covered in ice and filth. We both grew up with horses and just leaving him in the trailer overnight is a huge nono. Most barns will let you rent a stable for a night to board them in, and it’s usually not that expensive. We were in Kentucky so there’s no shortage of stables here. The conditions it was in made it abuse. The plates were also from Utah so who knows how long he’s been in there like this. I gave him some water and called animal control. They were checking him out when I left. Things like this just make me so mad. If you don’t know how to take care of an animal or can’t afford to do it properly then don’t get the animal.
