How can we help Cowboy?

Letters to the Editor

Thank you for your thorough article about Cowboy the horse with the graffiti engraved in his teeth. What a despicable act of cruelty. The actions are very clearly abuse.

I am aghast that Deputy Merritt of the Bandera County Sheriff's Office either can't see that, or refuses to do anything about it.

Your article alludes to a law that will take affect Sept. 1, limiting practitioners like Coats. Perhaps this has been revealed a few months too early for the law to step in. But that doesn't mean the right thing can't be done.

What would you recommend we do to help this horse?
