Two horses have been rescued in the Cantonment area. Little Richard and Scam, both former race horses, are now in the care of Panhandle Equine Rescue after being neglected and malnourished by their most recent owners.

“We are so happy that we could get them out of a bad situation before the temperatures dropped,” said PER President Diane Lowery. “They have a dry shelter and plenty to eat now. Their days of neglect are over.”

PER needs donations to pay for their medical and feed expenses, Lowery said. For more information, visit www.panhandleequinerescue.org.

    Were there any charges pressed against the owners? These animals did not get in this condition overnight and this is criminal.
