Five horses allegedly found starving at a ranch in Langley, British Columbia, Canada, were seized on Friday (Dec. 10), according to a report on ctvbc.ctv.ca. One horse was euthanized after the owners tried to use the emaciated horse to pull a stuck car out of a ditch. The local Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals stated that the owners are veterinarians. That group is recommending charges be filed against the couple.

SPCA was in the process of getting a warrant before it was called to the scene
One question is how long did the SPCA let those horses suffer?
Time and time again we hear tragic stories like this one
If these people were under investigation, why then did it take so long for the SPCA to act?
