Very sad. They most likely need the shots because they run them so hard. :( I do not believe they have very good lives.
That's a broad statement if you are referring to all polo horses. I suspect, like anything else, including pet ownership, some are cherished, cared for well and live happy lives, and some are neglected or abused. It is to be found anywhere and anytime you put animals and people together.Quote:
