Last week we were called out to Aourir as a horse was lying on the beach and couldn't get up.

When we arrived MAA volunteers had already done their best to coax the horse up and he was back on it's feet.

The horse had a severe infection to the leg as its feet were tethered which left gaping, open wounds. He had wire wrapped so badly around his leg, he would have died if he hadn't of received immediate medical care.

With the help of friends and volunteers we managed to put the horse in one of the volunteers back gardens, where our volunteer veterinarian injected antibiotics and painkillers as the situation was critical. The wound cleaning took hours and the horse is still suffering and in a lot of pain.

We have named the horse Brownie, and are now setting up a stables he can permanently be, so he doesn't have to be roaming around the streets and subjected to the cruelty he has already faced. Here he can have a home, food, and people who will love and care for him.

Every pound counts. Thank you.
