I have a 2 year old shire, who has never worn a coat in his life. At the moment he looks more like a bear than a horse!
However, this morning I turned him out in the snow. (A sight to behold! He loves it! ) I got a call at 10:30 am from my farm owner telling me to bring him in.
Our neighbours have called the RSPCA because he wasn't wearing a coat?
Where do I stand with this? I feel like I need to inform my neighbours that shire horses don't need coats!
I'm more than happy to have the RSPCA pay us a visit, because as far as I'm concern, my boy is - as far as I'm concerned - very very happy and we'll looked after! I don't know when I can and can't turn him out in case we're going to end up with the RSPCA here every time I out him in a field.
What would you guys do?
Thank you! Phoebe
