Determination of animal welfare in draft horses from the city of Concepción
With the objective to determinate animal welfare in draft horses in the city of Concepción, 29draft horses were sampled without distinction of race or sex, from 2 years of age. The determination of thewelfare of the draft horse was carried out by direct indicators obtained from the animal (body condition,behavior, presence of visible lesions) through visual exploration and indirect ones based on the owner(feeding practices, ironwork, sanitary management, infrastructure and housing/job time) through aquestionnaire. The results were: 76% (22/29) of the horses had a good body condition, 21% (6/29)regular and 3% (1/29) bad; 93% (27/29) were without injuries and 7% (2/29) with injuries; 100%(29/29) did not show behavioral alterations; 100% (29/29) found themselves with inadequate feedingmanagement; 100% (29/29) were found with proper handling of the horseshoes; 86% (25/29) receivedinadequate sanitary management and 14% (4/29) adequate; 100% (29/29) of the infrastructuredestined for equines were inadequate; 69% (20/29) of housing and work time were adequate and 31%(9/29) inadequate. Thus, 100% (29/29) of the horses under study had at least one indicator inadequately.There is inadequate ownership of equines, which affects their welfare.

Con el objetivo de determinar el bienestar animal en equinos de tiro de la ciudad deConcepción, fueron muestreados 29 equinos de tiro sin distinción de raza o sexo, a partir de 2 años deedad. La determinación del bienestar se realizó por indicadores directos obtenidos del animal (condicióncorporal, comportamiento, presencia de lesiones visibles) a través de exploración visual e indirectosproveídos por el propietario (prácticas de alimentación, herraje, manejo sanitario, infraestructura ytiempo de estabulación/trabajo) mediante un cuestionario. Los resultados revelaron que 76% (22/29)de los equinos presentaron una condición corporal buena, 21% (6/29) regular y 3% (1/29) mala; 93%(27/29) estaban sin lesiones y 7% (2/29) con lesiones; 100% (29/29) no presentaron alteraciones decomportamiento; 100% (29/29) se encontraron con prácticas inadecuadas de la alimentación; 100%(29/29) se encontraron con manejo adecuado de las herraduras; 86% (25/29) recibieron un inadecuadomanejo sanitario y 14% (4/29) adecuado; 100% (29/29) de la infraestructura destinada a los equinosresultaron inadecuadas; 69% (20/29) del tiempo de estabulación y trabajo resultaron adecuados y 31%(9/29) inadecuados. De esta forma, el 100% (29/29) de los equinos sometidos a estudio tuvieron almenos un indicador de forma inadecuada. Existe una tenencia inadecuada de los equinos, lo querepercute sobre el bienestar de estos.
