Chaff 3,622 Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 As a lad I worked in grey kennel's, and if their was a faller beyond repair at the local horse tracks it would be bought and fed to dogs saw a complete head boiled with veg for a day then served up it was considered the best you could give them at the time. It smelt real good too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
neil cooney 10,416 Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 If you're getting horse flesh ALWAYS find out how it died. A horse put down by a vet using a general anesthetic has enough in it to kill dozens of dogs. A horse killed by a humane bolt is 100%. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jerry71 269 Posted August 6, 2017 Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 My grandfather was a horse dealer and my mother told me when one was shot the good flesh was eaten and rest was stock feed. And the lads from the tracks would collect Barrow loads if they got the chance same as sheep heads. I still boil heads for my team when i can get them [BANNED TEXT] the Africans.

Drugs work out expensive in horse doses and you cant use the meat, then have to dispose of it. Bang bang Neddy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Drugs work out expensive in horse doses and you cant use the meat, then have to dispose of it. Bang bang Neddy. Horses DO get killed by injection and only yesterday morning I heard of a bullock killed by anesthetic. So never take anything for granted. When I mentioned that there's enough anesthetic in a horse to kill a lot of dogs that's because I've known where one dead horse fed caused over 20 hounds to die. It's up to you if you want to take it for granted. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
