RSPCA Cymru is appealing for information to try and find out the owners of three horses that have been removed from Llangynidr Common. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

On Tuesday 26 April, RSPCA Cymru along with charity Redwings attended to specific horses that were of concern at the common in Powys. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

A group of horses and a foal were removed from Llangynidr Common by the local authority, Powys County Council, using the Control of Horses (Wales) Act. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

Within this group, there were three horses that were subject to welfare concerns, and the RSPCA is appealing for information to try and track down who they belong to. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

RSPCA inspector Christine McNeil said: “Anyone with information can contact the RSPCA Inspectorate Appeal Line on 0300 123 8018. Calls are treated in confidence. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

“If anyone has any information on these horses please get in touch. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

“At this time the horses are in a place of safety and are receiving treatment. The welfare and future of these horses are very important to us.” ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​
