Calling for help
Because the police officers had no means of transporting the animal, they had to call the local animal shelter in their town, known as the Easy Care Horse Rescue Center or ECHRC for short. It was set up by a woman named Sue Weeding who had an entire raunch dedicated to horses, ponies, and other larger animals.
The police knew about this place and made a phone call. They told the people on the other line about the horse that they had found and the terrible shape it was in. They asked if they could bring a transportation vehicle over here to help the horse and get it to a hospital.
