Borys Kozlowski, from Grajewo, a town in north-eastern Poland, said: "I
didn't want anybody to steal the horse. It did a great job on the lawn, and I wouldn't leave the lawnmower lying around either."
When Borys, 48, finally got around to cutting the overgrown grass he discovered that the lawnmower had given up the ghost.
He said: "I saw a pal of mine while I was trying to fix it, and he told me I should forget the lawnmower and power up his horse, Dolina. I thought it seemed like a good idea, and as the horse was only a short way away anyway. We went and fetched it and then he left me with the horse tethered in the garden eating the grass. As well as short grass, I got some fertilizer as well.
"Afterwards he hadn't come back and I didn't want anyone to pinch the animal, so I took it upstairs and through my flat and left on the balcony." The horse's owner Jakob Pancesky collected the animal a short while later, saying: "He is a bit of a character. He has never been frightened of anything in his life - you can fire a starting pistol next to him and he would only turn and look at you. I guess a flight of steps was no big deal to him."
