Boy, it’s been wet and muddy ’round here. Needless to say, no good new pics. As a result of the poor weather, we had to delay the gelding portion of our clinic until things dry up a bit. On a positive note, about half of the adult horses received dental care, and the less handled mares were trimmed while sedated. Yayyyyy, that was great for them!

Happy New Year everyone!! There’s so much to catch up on since we took in our first horses in June, but it’s time to stop looking back, start today, and look to the future. We’ll make up for time past as we go.

We finished the year off on another challenging note when Takela became ill. She went down with a bang the day after Christmas. Her symptoms were less than typical, but Takela’s vet concluded colic or enteritis. When she was facing a second cold dark night of misery, and no improvement with treatment…no appetite, no thirst, little poop, and pain in her gut for two days…often sitting like a dog, we pondered that horrible decision of what might be best for the poor girl. For once, we all acknowledged her “strong” spirit played to her advantage, and she was still fighting. So, we thought she could continue her fight. That night brought hope. I never thought poop could be poetic, but in the middle of the night, when I saw the moon glistening upon her poop, it was pure bliss. The mineral oil finally found it’s way THROUGH her intestines. “Hallelujah” I said!!! I knew at that moment, we couldn’t give up on this girl. Things started looking up, and each day forward brought a little improvement. I can say with confidence, yesterday Takela was Takela!

: Takela this morning

What a great way to start the new year!!

It’s 2010, and we’re off to a new start. The holiday diversion and Takela’s hurdles didn’t slow the need for horses in our communities.

We’re working hard, and with the help of some of our friends, we’re juggling space and fostering a couple of horses to make room for a couple of girls in desperate need. Jasmine (“Jazzy”) and her filly arrived last night. Like most of the horses here, they were literally in the hands of the slaughterhouse. Because of caring and generous people, they got the best Christmas gift anyone can get…the gift of life. They have been spared, but they journey has only just begun.

Jazzy need sponsors to help support her along the way to her new home. Thanksfully, I think the filly has a sponsor.

Jazzy is a sweet little soul, but she’s been starved. Her winter coat is doing a great job of masking the finer details of her skeleton. It’s much worse than it looks, and it looks bad!

Jasmine this morning

Jazzy's Filly

Please help us help them by donating now…d0nate, sponsor a horse, or drop by with some feed/hay or supplements. Whatever you can do.

Happy Holidays….
