Find out If These Emaciated Horses with Long Hooves Got Rescued in Maryland

While Maryland, USA, might seem like a quiet place, there was something sinister going on that no one knew about. An otherwise beautiful horse had an extreme case of neglected hooves and was bone-thin. When found, this horse was standing in about four feet of manure. You could plainly see that the hooves were curled over three-feet long, which was immensely painful.

Veterinarians Put in Their Two Cents

The vets that were asked to check out the horse believed that she suffered horrific mistreatment for at least 12 years. She didn’t get proper medical care or see a farrier in all that time. The Days End Farm Horse Rescue, located in Woodbine, took in the poor animal. The executive director, Erin Ochoa, was there and told this beauty that her life was about to change for the better.
