These 5 cob foals, 2 fillies and 3 colts, approximately a month old, were just dumped like rubbish. Thankfully they were picked up quickly by the pound who brought them to us.They have been given a chance at life by IHRP. Probably foals from foster mares, their mothers are now earning their owner thousands! Foster mares have their place, but the owners of such places should have every regulation in the book stamped on them, and proper provision made for the foals taken away from their mothers. These people are easily found, as they advertise on various sites. The authorities should be targeting them as a matter of urgency.
But on a good note, the babies are all doing ok, eating well and sleeping a lot!
They will be available for rehoming in due course to real horse lovers, in spite of their callous owner who just wanted rid of them!!
Shame on you whoever you are!!! Karma will bite back!!

Very many Thanks to everyone!! In the space of 2 hours we have homes for these beauties! BUT- Make no mistake- This is happening DAILY!!! This is why Irish Horse Rehoming Programme was set up! We can save whatever we think suitable for rehoming and what we have homes for!! But we cannot take them all out of the pounds quickly enough to avoid slaughter! They have 5 DAYS!!! So We really need anyone who supports what we are doing and is in a position to offer a permanent home, to go on our website and get those applications in! If we can compile a list of already approved homes through our procedures, we will know what you would like to save and be ready to save them!!! I keep using Caps to emphasise this point- HEALTHY EQUINES BEING SLAUGHTERED DAILY IN IRISH POUNDS!! Its in your hands........
