Blind Mares Update, Donkeys Galore, & the Inimitable CaryLou!

August 20th…
Spirit was great for Dr. Mangan! She’s such a sweet mare. She can’t see anything out of her right eye. Her left eye can distinguish light from dark.  Spirit was one of our rescues that was adopted out a couple of years ago.  She went to live with another blind horse. Sadly, the adopter recently passed away and both mares came here.
Penny was also really good for Dr. Mangan – she is definitely blind in both eyes
Penny is a 29 year old Belgian that came to us because her owner passed away.  She needs sponsors to help with her daily care.  If anyone would like to help with her please let us know.  Even a one time donation of any amount would help – click on the “Donate” button below. Thank you.

“Good morning everybody! I’m baby Whiskers but I’m growing up! Did you know that I heard the volunteers talking about changing my name to Gator? I think it’s because I like to go around and “chomp, chomp” on just about anything I can put in my mouth!  But no worries – mommy Theresa says we won’t change it!”

“Hi everyone! It’s me – JoJo! How do you like my smile? I’m smiling because it’s a brand-new day!  We have to go now because we want to say, ‘Hi’ to Daisy and Mocha. They are going to be leaving one day soon.”

Spirit gets dirtier than any horse I’ve ever known. lol
At times, Whiskers is like the Energizer bunny that doesn’t slow down – long ears and all!
It seems that Whiskers legs grow inches overnight!
It’s not unusual to find CaryLou on the porch of the storage building. He’s been coughing a bit more lately as he has a collapsing trachea. It is better though – I haven’t seen him fall over like a fainting goat in quite sometime!.
