Spirit today – 06/30/12
Just a quick update because the day is almost over and there is still so much to do here!
Spirit got a hooficure today – she was a very good girl. Her feet need more work but Cindy will be doing a little bit each time. Spirit is sore and has open injuries that can cause her discomfort so we were very careful with her.
Spirit had visitors today! Abigail, a friend of the rescue, recently had her 11th birthday party and asked for donations in lieu of gifts. Today, Abi, along with her family, visited so that Abi could personally give Spirit her gift of donations! What a kind and generous thing for Abi to do – thank you Abigail! Abigail’s gift will provide shavings for Spirit. Spirit is pretty messy in her stall but that’s ok. We appreciate Abigail and her mom, dad, and brother all helping out today.
Robin and Don also visited – they also think Spirit is a sweet and lovely mare.
Spirits injuries look horrible and are painful but I have to say that her demeanor, personality, and love for life shines through and you can feel her positive energy which makes you feel really good despite her injuries. Kylie hand walked Spirit some today and Spirit finally went down and rolled!!! We had been waiting for this for a couple of days now and it brought lots of “awe’s” and smiles. Now, if she would feel comfortable enough to lay down and rest. She does have injuries from nose to tail and she is sore all over but especially on her left side.
Spirit shines through!

I see peace in her eyes now:) Thank you Theresa I can’t wait to come and see her.. Maybe as soon as Teri gets back from her vacation
Come when you can Stacy! You’re going to think she is just amazing!
So cool!! She is so very grateful that you came along & didn’t deny her help!
She looks so content. God Bless everyone who helps take care of all the horses at the farm.
She is so precious. I am so grateful you have her.
what a wonderful way to end a beautiful day… so glad she’s chosen to trust you…and so glad she has you to trust…
What’s the deal with the rest of the herd? Are they as neglected? Is there any others helping them? What about the owners????
There are a couple of people going today to try to round up about 5 of the horses. Once they get those that they can, and we know what is left, we will start posting about the remaining ones that will still need homes. Today they are focusing on mares with foals.
I see quiet determination in her eyes. She is a fighter.
Abigail what a wonderful young lady you are.i hope you had a wonderful birthday.Ans spirit you are a amazing horse
Bless you for doing what a lot of us want to and can’t………
