As part of our team spends the night inspecting the horse market itself, the other part of the team joins Road Transport Inspectors (ITD) to inspect night transports of horses to the market. Some vehicles have already arrived and are arranged in a long line-up for veterinary inspection. Some are still on the way. Through the night, ITD inspectors stop many cars with empty trailers and a few small transporters, carrying 1 or 2 horses. Some vehicles are in appalling condition, some have missing documents. Luckily, the horses we see look good and seem well taken care after. ITD inspectors fine some transporters, we take notes to write complaints about authorisation of vehicles.

We are the only NGO accepted by ITD to cooperate with them.
