Alachua, Fla. (AP) — Whenever a horse arrives at Mill Creek Farm in Florida, Peter and Mary Gregory make the aging animal a promise to last the rest of its days.
Mary and Peter Gregory feed a carrot to one of their retired, abused or neglected horses Wednesday, Jan. 8, 2014 at their Mill Creek Farm which they started in 1984 in Alachua, Fla. About 130 horses have this 325-acre farm as their retirement home, doted on by the Gregorys, who promise each horse who arrives at the farm that it will never be worked or ridden again. Nearly all of the horses have worked for years in law enforcement, military or other service jobs; a few have been seized by police. (AP Photo/Phil Sandlin)
