@walabby today alone I saw countless underweight and injured horses. Most injuries were from being in cramped quarters.

@Rosiechick13 That is because of how the horses were kept, not they they were sold by auction. They could be sold by contract, or given away, and still have been badly kept.

@walabby the weight yes. Most of the injuries happened at the auction.... Eye was kicked in on one, another was covered in bite marks, another had bloody knees, one was clearly drugged, no access to food or water

@Rosiechick13 Fair enough. The auction house needs to lift its game...

@walabby they need mandatory drug screening and basic standard of care requirements
