There have also been concerns about tethered horses. There is no specific offence of tethering a horse — providing the owner looks after its needs and does not tether it in a way so as to cause it unnecessary suffering.
RSPCA Wales spokesman Gethin Russell-Jones admitted Swansea was a particular blackspot.

“This is a DISGRACE.
The rspca are aware, and are doing NOTHING. The council is aware, and are doing NOTHING. Both have been aware for a long time so WHY ARE THEY NOT HELPING??????
We need action to help the horses, including the newly born baby, and we need them helped now - not when its too late and they are DEAD!!!!!!
