Animal welfare inspectors from the NSW RSPCA attended a property near Putty in August last year after receiving reports about the horse's welfare.
According to the RSCPA, two of the horses were considered emaciated based on the condition of their bodies. The woman was brought before Singleton Local Court in April, where she was sentenced to an 18-month Intensive Corrections Order to be served in the community, including 200 hours of community service work.The magistrate said the woman as an owner, had failed the horses by allowing them to suffer for an extended period of time.The RSPCA cared for the horses as they gained back some of their lost weight.
