Dental Day

It was another busy day at the rescue. This is Linda visiting with Cookie – she is our fly mask escape artist! Linda drove down from SC to visit with us for a few days. I’m glad she got to meet the horses (and humans). She worked hard and we certainly appreciate her making time for us. We enjoyed her visit very much!

Dr. Bess (Darrow) came to do some teeth today. Adora was first – her mouth was atrocious! She had 3 loose teeth and lots of sharp points. I think Adora will be very pleased with her new mouth and I think she will start to put on some weight now.

Twinkle’s corner incisors are twisted 90 degrees. They were filed off and she got some other work done. We didn’t want to sedate her – she’s very pregnant. She did really well – I’m very proud of her!

Reese tried to convince Dr. Bess she did not need anything done to her teeth! Well, luckily for Reese, her teeth didn’t need much work.

I’m going to finish up a few things and call it a day. Have a good night everyone!

Sisco

Ok everyone – need to ask for help again. We did win 2nd place ($300) in the Elder Ford contest ($300)! But we need $500 for Sisco’s chemo treatment tomorrow.

He needs an additional $200 – would anyone like to help?

Update on Genesis, Solace, Cisco, and Gypsy

March 17th, 2013

We hope everyone had a great weekend!  It was busy here but uneventful which is good.  I did move a couple of horses around this evening to help the “mareish” situation.  Solace paced a 2’ deep trench down the fence line in front of the house last night.

Cisco and Sunset.  Sunset will be heading home to Lisa’s in Colorado in a couple of weeks – we’re so excited for her!

Gypsy’s very beautiful blue eye…

Genesis – he’s doing ok but still having a little trouble with depth perception.  He will get better.

Calling it a day early – I have a Dr. appointment in the am and it’s going to be very busy here.  Have a good week everyone!

Pictures from today and Reese – a new arrival!

We have a new arrival – a mini mare! She was getting run into the ground by a stud that would not leave her alone and she wanted nothing to do with him. She is 15 years young. I don’t know much more about her other than she’s been living with a stud and I was told that all was ok until she went into estrus a few weeks ago and the stud has been chasing her ever since – poor girl.

We are calling her “Reese”. As in Reese’s candy – she’s so sweet!

If anyone would like to help sponsor Reese it would be greatly appreciated! She needs a hooficure terribly and the dentist will be here this week to do her teeth.

And a few other pictures from today…

Peggy Sue knows that when Roxy is here she will get some extra pampering!

Kylie giving Adora a bath with help from Kathie and Bill (visiting from NH)!

Paul and Genesis. Genesis is doing well.

“Do you have some treats in your purse Auntie Kathie?” Gypsy found out that she loves sugar cubes!

Twinkle taking Kylie for a walk!

Poor Twinkle – she has teeth growing outwards that poke her in her cheeks. She will be seeing the dentist this week. This is not a happy mouth.

If anyone would to make a tax deductible donation it would be greatly appreciated. We are not funded by any government agency. We are an all volunteer organization that operates totally from donations. No amount is too small. Donations can be made via different ways through our website at theresa. Donations can also be made via snail mail to BHFER, PO Box 53, Morriston, FL 32668.

God bless – thank you and have a great weekend!

Gentleman Bracelet – Today is last day

Solace, Mini’s, and a Fundraiser

This is yesterday’s update:  Solace napping in the sun after breakfast.  He’s doing great.

He has a job he seems to really take pride in – watching over his little herd of mini mares!

Amy has come to love human attention.  Ariel is much better.  Adora is still adorable!

We got the mini mare that I was worried coyotes would get!  We were told she doesn’t know human touch and doesn’t lead.  She’s a cute girl looking ready to foal soon.  I think we will call her Twinkle!  Bob ran into a neighbor at the feet store this evening and he said he has killed 4 coyotes in the last week.  He breeds Beagles for hunting dogs.  The momma dog went out with her 2 pups one evening and the pups came back – she likely gave herself so her pups could run back home.  So sad.  I’m so glad Twinkle is here and a bit more protected from the coyotes.  Her feet were horribly long – she had a hooficure which went ok.  She has got to feel better now that her feet are done.

Will try to stick her tomorrow to see how tall she us.  I have no idea how old she is.  I do think she has had some handling though – either that or she is a fast learner willing to trust.

Dr. Porter will be out next week to do Sisco’s next chemo treatment.

This is from today: LAST DAY TO BID! Don’t forget the horse hair bracelet auction off!  This one is made from Gentleman’s hair!  It was made by Lisa Austin of Crazy4ponytails.  CURRENT BID: $180! Bid increments: $5 Auction ends: 3-15-13.  

We need to try to finish up the hay game – will need to get the hay mid next week. I think we are down to needing somewhere in the $500 range.  Remember that for every $20 donation you make towards the hay, you will get one entry to win a nice “Shoofly” made from Solace’s hair!!  We appreciate every little amount you can spare!  UPDATE: We really need to get this hay – we are doubling the chances!  If you have already donated for a chance for $20 you’ll get 2 chances.  From here on out for every $10 you’ll get 1 chance!

Please share the info on the auction and the hay game!  Thank you all for caring – have a beautiful and blessed day!

Theresa
