DALLAS (July 8, 2009)--Some horses that star in a Russian equestrian circus have been stranded in the Dallas area after the show didn't go on.
A note Wednesday on the company's Web site says the Dallas Artania show was canceled.
Lisa Blackmon, who owns Black Star Sport Horses in Rockwall, offered to help with the 19 horses, for a couple of weeks, until Artania can regroup.
The Dallas Morning News reports the 19 horses were loaded into trailers and transported to the Black Star stables.
Blackmon said the horses seem to be "healthy, playful," and do not appear to be stressed after the move on Monday.
Promoter Jeff Kurtz says Artania for now will stay in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
