Paso Case – Almost 40 Horses

The day was very productive and I think much was accomplished. Yesterday we made a trip out to look at a herd of 30+ Paso Fino’s that need homes – their owner was murdered several months ago. Today we focused on getting the horses hay for the next few days as well as providing them with grain and salt/mineral blocks. Feed tubs, waterers, and stalls were cleaned. The studs were all locked up in stalls at the barn – they have been there for a long, long time. While the mares are thinner than most of the studs – the feet on the studs were worse than the mares – the mares constantly move – they are out on several acres with no protection from the elements. The studs had been getting some grain while the mares got none.

Here are a few pictures from yesterday.

And today…. It was really nice to meet new people – working together we got a lot done! I’m going to post some pictures tonight – will have to post more info tomorrow. It’s been a very long day. But I want to thank everyone for caring and for helping! These horses need homes but at least for the next few days – they have food. And the studs got out of their stalls today for the first time in ages – if only for 10 minutes or so – and it was great watching them. And when they went back into their stalls they were clean.

Sincerely,

Theresa

Update on Pony – He’s Here!

Well, the darling little pony is here. We picked him up this evening and he has settled in – I wouldn’t have been able to sleep tonight had we not picked him up!

Welcome home – let’s get rid of that halter! He got a bath before I first met him this morning – he does have a nice winter coat.

It will take some time for him to put on needed weight and grow stronger but he will. He’s now on his road to recovery – thanks to many. And what a sweet boy he is!

He’s got much kindness, gratitude, and light in his eyes – his name is Ghost.

Thank you to everyone that made it possible for this sweet pony to come to the rescue! Please forgive me if I haven’t responded to your emails or posts on FaceBook (which I’m still learning how to use) today – once the wheels were put in motion to help Ghost the day was non-stop! I’ll try to get caught up tomorrow. But please know that we appreciate every one of you and your support. It’s only because of others helping us that we can help those in need like little Ghost. Donations are greatly appreciated – no amount is too small and all donations are tax deductible.

Update on Harley: Dr. Ryan stained his eye yesterday and changed his eye medication to include Dex. If we don’t see an improvement in a week it may not be a good thing. Please pray for Harley.

Update on Haley: Today was the first day we’ve seen her feel even a little bit better. She got a good medicated bath for a skin condition and she was started on medication to treat EPM and is also getting some homeopathic remedies. The day Dr. Jackson worked her Haley we were told that we should see an improvement in her by Monday so we’re 2 days ahead of schedule! Please pray that we continue to see Haley improve.

Update on humans: Tired!

I’ll update more tomorrow – it’s been a really busy day.  Have a blessed day tomorrow!
