She deserves every bit of it. Even if the bread and water is only for a few days, she will still feel the twinge of hunger that her horses felt (only on a much grater scale). I don't condone the mistreatment of animals. All they want to do is please you, and they don't have a malicious bone in their body. Especially horses, they are intelligent, trustworthy, loyal and beautiful animals. I hope they get better really quick
