A horse is a horse, of course, of course

Customs agents in Atlanta said nay to a person trying to smuggle a small horse inside a dog crate from Germany to Guatemala.

Officials at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport said the passenger who bright the small show horse onto a plane apparently was trying to pass the horse off as a dog, Atlanta television station WGCL reported Wednesday.

Customs agents said the owner did not have the proper permits, and the horse's crate was too small. After removing the horse from the crate, officials examined it for diseases and fed it.
