Two Horses Euthanized – Criminals Charges Laid

(TOWNSHIP OF ESSA) –,On Sunday, October 16, 2016, members of the Nottawasaga Detachment, Ontario Provincial Police, were called to attend a farm on the 5th Line of Essa. This was in response to numerous public concerns respecting the health and well-being of two horses.

It became clear through investigation that the standard of care was well below what was reasonable. A Veterinarian, who specializes in the care, and medical services of horses was contacted and attended the scene. The Veterinarian advised that both animals had been neglected for some time.
