We were contacted about a mare that has lived alone for many, many years. She needs everything – an initial vet exam with bloodwork, dental and farrier work, as well as assistance with her aftercare. Bringing a horse in is just the beginning. Dr. Julia is scheduled for Monday to pull Coggins on some of the horses and I’d like to get this mare here before then so she can be vetted. If anyone would like to assist in helping with the initial and ongoing expenses of this sweet mare or contribute toward the Coggins tests (total $395) on our other ‘Velvet Nosers,’ it would be so greatly appreciated.

Here are pictures of a few of the mares – I ran out of time but will post more in a couple of days. Unfortunately, I need to spend tomorrow in the office all day to get caught up on paperwork.  I was out at the Paso farm most all day.  It was a good day and a lot got done.  Gates/fencing got fixed, unsafe debris was picked up and removed, more feet were trimmed, etc.  There was too much commotion going on around the barn to do much at all with one of the two herds of mares. We do have some of the thinner ones separated off into one of the smaller paddocks.

Mare #1. Dark bay, no white. Very friendly.

Mare #2. Bay with some white hairs above left eye.

Mare #3. Chestnut with stripe and very thick coat.

Mare #4. Dark bay (almost black) with no white. She is the thinnest.

Mare #5. Chestnut with tag (#16) around neck.
