I'm with you about not wanting to make one work in that heat and feeling sorry for them on the hard ground all day but I haven't seen one in poor condition (actually some are quite fat) and their hooves all look neat trimmed and some are shod. I had a conversation with a taxi driver who said they go off to a paddock at night (probably like the small ones you see the cows on)so they probably just reverse sleep (sleep all day waiting for work and then eat during the night when it is cooler). Not sure if its true but i guess they have to go somewhere while their driver goes home and they seem in fairly good condition so like to think its true.
