The Houston SPCA says it has rescued more than 80 miniature horses and ponies from a property near Baytown.

They're being treated by a team of veterinarians, for multiple health issues– including lameness and overgrown hooves.

The organization says the horses and ponies were found emaciated, had no access to fresh water, and many were having difficulty breathing.
