**PLEASE SHARE IN ROSSENDALE**
We have had quite a few reports of worries, posted on Facebook, in various groups, in relation to horses in the fields lying flat down.
Please could we reassure people that horses, especially babies, do like to lie flat, with the rest of the herd stood over them.
To people passing on the M66, on the side of the hill where our horses graze, this can look concerning, as they appear not to be moving, but honestly they are feeling safe & relaxed, whilst having a snooze.
We appreciate everyone’s concerns, but wish to put minds at ease by reassuring that the horses are fine. They are checked every day & are under regular care.
Each time a post is brought to our attention we check the horses again to make sure, but it is becoming a stressful to our little yard when it is being posted about horses in trouble, when they are simply relaxing.
We will always take action if anything is reported, but hopefully this post can help put people’s minds at ease.
Thank you 🙏
