Horse rescue group to save Arabians from Marshall County farm
By Zac Taylor
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- A New Jersey horse rescue group will travel to a Marshall County farm this week to save more than 50 Arabian horses that had been dwindling in health since their owner became ill several years ago.
Terry Figueroa, founder of the Arabian Rescue Mission, said Monday that the horses owned by Fazal A. Kahn, who died in December, were in decent condition but still must be rescued because the family cannot find anyone to take care of them.
"I don't want to say they're in bad shape, but they're in decline," Figueroa said of the horses. "The family is upset because they have been asking for help."
The horses live on a large farm in Dallas, off of Sam Hill road, Figueroa said. A local man has been traveling to the farm every day to feed the animals since Khan fell ill in 2008, she said.
