On November 21, 2023 an eleven-year-old gelding was found abandoned in a staging area corral in the Tijuana River Valley Regional Park. On December 9, 2023 a second gelding, a twenty-five-year-old Appaloosa was found abandoned nearby. Neither horse had food or water. Fortunately, both horses were rescued by San Diego Humane Society’s Humane Law Enforcement. Both geldings received much-needed care and veterinary attention at San Diego Humane Society’s Escondido Campus. This care allowed them both to recover.
