Earlier this year ARCH were involved in the high-profile rescue of severely neglected horses, donkeys and mules from a dealer’s yard near San Roque. We took two mares – Corrie and Frontera – who have recovered well. A short time afterwards we were again approached to take a further two horses that the same dealer had hidden in another location. Now three more have arrived at ARCH – a one-eyed gelding and a mare with a six-month old mule baby. The trio had been running wild for over a year, having been turned out in a huge area where they had plenty of food and water but no human contact.
They settled and started to calm down at ARCH and have now been rehomed to Madrid.
