The Face of Hunger

11/30/16  Wednesday

We named the latest arrival SeAnna (pronounced see-anna) which is a variant of the name Janet. It means “Gift from God.” We lost a dear animal warrior and friend last week, Janet Lacetera, and I’m sure she would be truly honored. Janet had a heart of gold and made a difference in the lives of many horses and other animals.

Dr. Specht did a physical on SeAnna.  She’s a very sweet mare estimated to be about 20 years young. She has a heart murmur and a tummy with quite a bit of sand in it.

SeAnna is barely a 1 on the body condition score scale – she’s a rack of bones and is at least 300 lbs. underweight. Blood work and a fecal were done which we will review with the vet tomorrow.

SeAnna has an appointment with Dr. Bess Darrow (Tune-Ups Dentistry) tomorrow to get her teeth done which she badly needs. She’s got an overbite and other issues.

I wanted to give her a bath today but felt it best to wait. However, I did give her a good brushing and it took me awhile to get her mane combed out.  I think she really enjoyed the attention.

SeAnna is really a beautiful girl – inside and out. It’s really very sad what she endured before coming here. But that is in the past and she’s started a new chapter in her life. No more hunger or neglect.
