Cisco update

Dr. Ryan tubed and oiled Cisco. Blood work was done. He thinks Cisco is just gassy. Cisco has passed poop a few times today. He’s going to stay in a stall for awhile so we can monitor his water intake, etc. He’s such a good boy about everything. I would love to know about his past. He’s got beautiful, wise, and kind eyes.

I am going to dinner with my son at the AMVETS but Bob, Kylie, and Barbara are here. I won’t be gone long and I’ll have my cell phone with me. I don’t get out much and when Joshua asked me to go I said “Yes!” I’ll update again tonight though. Maybe I can get my camera to communicate with my computer and post better pictures.

Thank you all for saying prayers for Cisco. He’s a gem!

Cisco – Dr. Ryan

We’ve kept a close eye on Cisco all morning. He ate his breakfast just fine – a mushy meal. But after breakfast he trotted over to the shade of the tree by my office and laid down – he just didn’t seem right. He didn’t look painful but I talked with Dr. Ryan anyway and gave Cisco some Banamine. Cisco then got up and grazed and walked around. He ate some of his soupy lunch but didn’t finish it. And then he went down again. We got him up and he got a good bath and is now in a stall with the fans on him. He’s down again. Dr. Ryan is on his way. He’s drinking and passing poop. Please say a prayer for him. Sorry the picture is so bad. My camera and computer are still not talking to each other correctly.

Sincerely,

Theresa

A beautiful card – Ambrosia

I just received a beautiful card from the wonderful team of caregivers at UF about the loss of Ambrosia. She truly was surrounded by people that loved her. She touched so many hearts.

My mare, Beauty, is my aromatherapy – her smell calms me like nothing else can. Well, Ambrosia did the same. I miss her. I miss her smell, her little whinnies, everything about her. Maybe someday I can talk about her without getting tears in my eyes.

Ambrosia would make anyone having a bad day feel good. She was just that kind of mare. Thank you all for caring about her.

Have a wonderful day everyone!

Cisco today

Having a rainstorm here and need to get to the barn but here are a couple pictures of Cisco today that I took with my cell phone. He’s an absolutely wonderful Halflinger gelding – very, very sweet.

I have more pictures that I took when Dr. Ryan came today but my camera isn’t working tonight so I’ll have to try again tomorrow – could be the battery. Have a good night everyone!

Patti – beautiful paint mare needs home ASAP!

Patty was adopted, but circumstances changed for her adoptive family and Patti now needs to find a forever home, fast. She is a 4 year old dun and white splash overo and she is up to date on everything. She is deaf. She was born deaf because of the lethal white gene. She has never been unhealthy or unsound. She can be ridden by an experienced rider as she did have 90 days of professional training. She has good ground manners and is not jumpy or spooky.

This is what her current adoptive mom says about her:

"She has ground manners, and stands well for the farrier. She is also very low on the chain of herd command. She does not like her mouth to be touched at all, the vet had a hard time trying to look at her teeth for her age. She LOVES people. When we walk outside to the pasture, she nickers and comes right over to the fence. I haven’t noticed any vices at all. She loves to be pampered as well. She is SUPER sweet (I can’t emphasize that enough). She will put her head in your hands and literally fall asleep."

If you are interested in giving Patty a forever home, please e-mail me at: bhfer.melissa

Haffie is here!

Thanks to Jenny and Pamela (Double B Transport) our little Haffie is here – I’m calling him Cisco. Cute little older guy – he’s underweight and has a horrible mouth but he’s in great spirits. And many thanks to hubby, Bob, too. He’s just now heading home. He had to wait at the truck for AAA to show up. I’ll get more pictures tomorrow.

Halflinger Pony

We have received enough funds to pick the pony up and bring him to the rescue and to cover first months expenses!

We’re still looking for sponsors for monthly care. I’ll update once he’s here and settled in.

Thank you!

Halflinger Pony – Urgent

We received an urgent plea this morning to pick up a 20+ Halflinger pony. If we don’t pick him up he could end up back in a dangerous situation. He had been living in an environment where drugs are part of the equation. The pony was being very neglected. A relative of the owner had been watching the pony’s health decline and was very concerned about him. During an appropriate time, the relative ask the owner if he would give her the pony and he did. The relative has been able to put some weight on the pony but we are told he is in dire need of farrier care and his teeth need to be done. Things happening have made the relative afraid that the owner will take the pony back which could put the pony back into harm’s way. This is a delicate family situation and I can tell you the person that currently has the pony is very concerned about the pony’s future and wants him in a safe place ASAP.

We need sponsors in order to make this happen. We are estimating the combined cost of helping this pony to be about $430 for transport, initial vetting, farrier, and teeth as he not received any of these things in a long time. We need sponsors to help with his monthly care – we are estimating $250 per month after the initial month. If anyone would like to help us to help this pony, please visit our donation page at the link below – mark your donation for “Meth Pony”. https://www.bhfer.org/donate.html

We are working on a current fundraiser to help as well.

If anyone would like to call in a donation directly to Peterson & Smith the number is 352-237-6151. No amount is too small and all donations are tax deductible. God bless and thank you for your support.

Ambrosia

It appears we have about $200 over the amount needed (includes donations, Horse & Man Bucket Fund, raffle funds) to cover Ambrosia’s bills. I know everyone that donated to help her truly hoped and prayed she would make it. I am sure there are a lot of disappointed people – including me. If anyone would like a refund on funds donated to help Ambrosia please email me by the last day of the month. Whatever funds then remain at the end of the month will be used towards other vet bills.

Even though we lost her I’m not sorry that we tried to help her. Her love for life was huge. While with us she seemed happy and content – perhaps she basked in things she’d never had before – good food, clean water, and lots of love. We’ll never know about her past except that she had been found wandering the streets of a rural county – very neglected. I do know that the light we saw in her eyes was real and I find comfort in knowing she will never be neglected again –she runs with the heavenly herd.

And this is how I choose to remember her – a beautiful, kind, appreciative, and loving mare with a huge love for life.

Thank you all for caring about her. She is, and always will be, quite the mare.

Theresa
