From hooves to teeth, rescue care from the ground up!
It was a very busy day at the rescue this past Thursday. Dr. Bess Darrow (Tune-Ups Equine Dentistry) spent a good part of the day at Beauty’s Haven taking care of many teeth. Scooter and Simba did great as did Belle Star, Chloe and Nicky, our very sweet blind mare. Actually everyone was good, except for CaryLou who decided he didn’t want to cooperate and opted to make faces to share his displeasure. He’s always starting or getting into something – he’s a hoot! Peaches’s examination revealed that she has not lost any additional teeth and thankfully, all was fine with Luiji as well. Lucy and Peggy Sue were rescheduled for another day as they were not sweating. It truly was a very productive day!
If anyone would like to help with our dental bill, it would be so greatly appreciated. We have already received a number of donations but we are still in need of $750 to have the entire bill covered. Donations can be made via the ‘Donate’ button below. All donations are greatly appreciated and no amount is ever too small. If you are not in a position to donate at this time we truly understand, but you can still help by sharing this with family and friends. Thank you all, so very much!
Sincerely,
Theresa
Hooficures Part Deux
A big Thank You to our wonderful friends and supporters who contributed to the first round of this week’s “Hooficures”! As promised, we are now seeking sponsorship for the remaining members of our herd that were on the farrier’s schedule this week, including CaryLou, Lucy, Bouie, Frodo, Sassy and Scooter, to name but a few. The average cost is $35 – if you can help, we would be forever grateful. Just visit our Donation page for multiple options. Please note that your contribution is for “Farrier.”
Bonus! Remember, everyone who donates toward farrier care will be eligible for a chance to win a lovely necklace created by a very dear friend and supporter. Once the “Hooficure” fundraiser is complete, three names will be randomly drawn. The winners, in order of selection, will then be notified via email or social media private message as to which necklace they would prefer. (Please note, these necklaces contain faux gemstones.)
