My aunt and uncle had a paddock next to their house, but Uncle sold it a few years ago. He dead now so aunt lives alone. Two young men , late teens maybe early 20s ? (She calls them “boys” but I haven’t seen them both up close) rent the paddock from the man who bought it. They have a horse in there. The horse is huge, beautiful, she looks like a good quality horse to me. Anyway the “boys” asked Aunt if she would tip her grass cuttings into the paddock when her lawns are mowed. I told Aunt that this can kill a horse ( I’ve never had one, but my best friend did ) . She was horrified and stressed. I assume they wanted the cuttings as the paddock is now totally bereft of grass, and they are obviously having to feed the horse.
I am worried as they seem oddly clueless about horses. Also the horse looks expensive, and the boys/men seem to be pretty hard up. It suddenly occurred to me that the Horse could be a stolen animal ? Not necessarily by them, but maybe she was cheap for that reason ? Should I do anything ? I am worried that they may do something out of ignorance that could kill the horse ( they had a foal that died ). What is there to do ? Aunt is an old lady and I don’t want to worry her.
