FWPD Pulls Horses From Ranch After Photos

When Jim Lane saw photographs with signs that horses he either bought or donated to the Fort Worth Police Department were malnourished and had skin infections, he became angry.

"It's not acceptable, and the pictures speak for themselves," said Lane with the Mounted Patrol Citizens Support Group.

"These are well trained, special horses," said Lane. "When I saw the pictures, I became mad at first, and then later I became sad."

The Fort Worth Police Department keeps all 15 of its horses in a barn on North Houston Street. The horses are often pulled from routine patrol for rest and relaxation, which means they are taken off the 'beat' and allowed to stretch their legs and be free at facilities such as the Wills Ranch, where three of the animals were sent DATE.
