Pony with fractured jaw dumped in Flintshire
The RSPCA is appealing for information after a pony was dumped in Flintshire
The mare was found in a lane in Babell, Holywell on Wednesday 17 March.
The pony is in the RSPCA care after a vet found she had a fractured jaw and needed treatment for an abscess.
RSPCA inspector Chris Dunbar said: “This poor creature was dumped in the most abject of circumstances and was in considerable discomfort. If someone knows anything about this incident I’d encourage them to come forward and help us.”
Anyone with information should contact the RSPCA on: 03001234999
