Horses
How many horses do you think are living within Clark County? Would you believe more than 30,000?
This generates a lot of casework for your Animal Protection and Control program as we are tasked with all potential or actual equine cruelty cases. Should you have a neighbor that appears to be struggling, or you drive by a pasture every day and are noticing a decline in a horse’s condition, please give us a call immediately. We are very successful at working with horse owners so they may return the horse back to good health while keeping the animal on their property. We also have great volunteers supporting our program for those cases that require a foster home.
We’d love to have you reach out to us and share your resources such as feed, shelter, horse care-related service, or a monetary contribution, all of which are tax-deductible.
