Injured foals dumped near golf course in Harrow


  • A pair of foals has been found abandoned near Grimsdyke Golf Club in Harrow.

    The underweight colts were taken into RSPCA care on 13 September and are both suffering with leg injuries.

    The foals are aged about six months and neither had been handled.

    RSPCA inspector Raquel Schwartcz has appealed for information about the bay pair.

    She said: “Both are responding well and staff are pleased. Obviously we would love
    to hear from anyone with any information.”

    The larger foal has been named Cracker by RSPCA staff. He had a massive absess on his hock which thankfully had not gone into the bone and is being drained.

    He is becoming more confident and relaxed.

    The other foal, whom they have named Champion, is more nervous and has ligament/tendon damage to its fetlock.

    Contact the RSPCA in confidence, on 0300 123 4999.
