Working horses in Afghanistan face harsh conditions, often pushed beyond their limits in demanding environments like brick kilns. Two such horses, Beauty and Grace, were rescued by Nowzad after suffering severe injuries and exhaustion from relentless labor. Beauty was found with badly injured front legs from pulling overloaded carts, while Grace collapsed from exhaustion and rough handling. Both were brought to Maverick’s Sanctuary, where they began receiving urgent veterinary care and rest.
Now safe, Beauty and Grace are showing remarkable resilience and gentleness, thriving on nutritious diets and the love of their carers. Beauty’s leg injuries are healing well, and Grace is steadily recovering from deep wounds. The Nowzad team remains committed to their long-term care, ensuring they live out their days in comfort. Supporters can help by sponsoring the horses, contributing to their ongoing treatment and daily needs to secure a peaceful future for these once-suffering animals.
