Newsbreak: Miniature horses attacked by pit bulls (Texas)

2008 February 5

Two pit bulls attack 5 miniature horses, leaving one dead and four severely injured in Lubbock, Texas.

Hearts and Hooves is a nonprofit organization that brings miniature horses indoors to people who need therapeutic healing.

It is uncertain at this time whether or not the little horses will be able to recover emotionally as well as physically to resume their charitable work.
