The South Kalispell Fire Department was called out after the horses fell through the ice on a deep pond.

The agency said “through the cooperative efforts of firefighters, Flathead County Sheriff’s Office animal control officers, Rebecca Farm staff and many neighbors, the horses were rescued."

The owner says the horses have some swelling and sore muscles but that will be taken care of with medication.

The owner of one of the horses says they have all been cleared by a veterinarian to rejoin their herd.
