Horse adoption in Colombia

Rate this post

Horses are wonderful animals that have made an exceptional contribution to the lives of human beings. That’s why today we’ll talk about a very interesting topic: the horse adoption in a country as beautiful as Colombia.

These beautiful mammals deserve to be cared for, loved and valued by men. For this reason we mention how important the horse adoption in the world, and specially in Colombia, is.

Especially in Colombia, in cities like Medellín and Bogotá there is the option of providing a second chance to these equines.

For some unjustified reason these animals have been abandoned by their owners and are therefore available for people to adopt.

It should be noted that if you want to give a second chance to one of these specimens, you must have basic conditions that we will mention later.

This situation usually occurs in various countries of the world. So it is the willingness of volunteers to fight for animal rights that largely take on these cases.

The goal of these independent protectionists or foundations is to find a responsible home for these beautiful animals.

In addition to horses, there are other animals such as cats and dogs waiting for a warm, respectful and loving home.

The critical point for horses to be adopted is more complex since it is a large animal that usually requires more attention and expense than a dog or cat.

However there are always people with adequate spaces for these equines, they should only have the will to provide a home to these horses that have been mistreated and abandoned.

Ideally, these animals see that not all humans are equal. On the contrary, there are people who give everything for everything for animals.

Aspects to consider if you want to adopt a horse

The horse adoption in Colombia is promoted from the municipalities of Medellín and Bogotá.

This action is supported by foundations that fight for the welfare of animals.

For the horse adoption in Colombia or any country, it is good to take into account the following questions:

  • Do I have the necessary space for horse adoption?
  • Do I have the economic possibility of paying for food, medicines, vaccines and consultations with the veterinary doctor?
  • Is there room for the horse to play and exercise?

It is good to consider each of these aspects before making a decision as important as the horse adoption.

These questions are valid when adopting a cat or dog. Giving a second chance to a stranded or sheltered animal is a big responsibility.

Therefore it is necessary to be aware of what this decision implies, since an animal is for all life.

Undoubtedly, horses are man’s best friend after the dog and this has accompanied him in his struggles since humanity exists.

Therefore we owe respect and consideration to these animals. Horse adoption is an alternative and Colombia would be an example.

Gabriel Oliverio gives us the following phrase from the equines:

“From my horse I learned that strength complements with nobility and loyalty ”.

The horses have served as inspiration for artists, filmmakers, poets, among others.

Also in Bogotá, retired horses are looking for a home to spend the rest of their lives with love and respect. For this reason, the authorities continue to promote the issue of horse adoption in Colombia.
