Horse rescued from water

Our crews came to the rescue of a wandering horse who slipped into water yesterday.

Highly trained animal rescue crews, our urban search and rescue team and specialist water officers assisted crews from Bishops Stortford to help the Shire horse out of her predicament after a call from her owner.

The horse was sedated by a vet and with help from the owner using a telehandler to make a path, crews managed to slide the horse out of the water. Once she’d had a check over from the vet, she was hot to trot again and none the worse for her dip.
