TYLER — Investigators say 62-year-old Linda Sue Michael of Quitman is the owner of 43 horses rescued in Lindale on December 13th — several of them pregnant and all of them starving. Since the rescue, things have changed for the animals. The S.P.C.A of East Texas and the Humane Society of the United States are making sure these animals receive the care they need. Besides daily food, something these horses are not used to, and exercise, Monday afternoon the animals were given vaccinations as well as additional medical attention.
As the horses receive the care they need, officials say the next step is finding them a home. Officials say in the coming weeks the S.P.C.A. will hold an open house and allow the public to see these animals once they are ready for adoption.
