Apollo 4-3-10 Apollo is a lovely TB gelding. Poor baby he had this huge abscess under his hoof on the bottom, so our vet Cynthia Fallness, MAg DVM came out and opened it up. Let's just say it was nasty. So hopefully he will start to feel better soon. I had to go buy diapers for the first time in ages...infant size..to use as hoof covering and bandages..LOL! |

3-30-10 We got four TBs in at once, a momma, her 2 year old gelding, a yearling, and a 5 month weanling. The three young ones have never had human contact. This is different, not fun, but different. |

Darth Vader ??-??-10 Vader is a 17 yr old pony. 3-22-10 Today our vet Cynthia Fallness, MAg DVM came out. One of the things she did was Vader's teeth, which according to her, looked like they had never been done. Here is a picture of a tooth that she had to remove from the top of his jaw. Poor boy, every time he tried to eat, it dug an abscess in his lower jaw and it had knocked out teeth on that side of his lower jaw. He is now on banamine for and antibiotics to treat the large ulcer is in his bottom jaw. 4-5-10 Darth became a gelding today (and boy is he mad at me ;-) |

1-21-10 Isabelle is only 11 years old, but her owners are saying that she is no longer able to put on weight due to age. We have been asked by the sheriff's department doing the investigation to document her progress. If we can get weight on her, they will be charged. So we are taking, and posting, plenty of pictures. However, due to their graphicness we are not displaying them here where you might see them unprepared. If you click the link, be warned, they are graphic pictures. We also have more detail on her rescue under this link. 4-15-10 Isabelle had her second surgery today! She is doing great, just look at how much different she looks! |

Obvi 1-16-10 is an 8 yr old registered paint from the Bushnell area. His registered name is Obviously A Star. His sire is Obvious Conclusion, and his grand sire is Obvious. The woman told me she has owned him since he was a year old, but stated that her daughter hadn't been taking care of him while she (the mother) was out of town, and this is what she found when she got back. |

"Doc" Holiday 1-8-10 Doc is a 17 year old, 17h boy from Lakeland. When we got him home, he was covered in burrs, and had a few cuts on him where they say he had got tangled in their fence. I ended up cutting his mane off, the burrs were just too tangled. It took about two hours to pull them out of his coat. He just stood there. |

Sunday Is a registered 5 yr old Saddlebred. Her owners got an unexpected job transfer to Colorado and could not keep two horses, so they parted with her. Unfortunately I don't have before pictures, my camera was down.:( |

4-15-09 - This group of rescues were brought in because the woman financially couldn't afford to feed them, nor had the proper home for them. The horses were staying in a small fenced in area, approximately 10'x25', that hadn't seen a cleaning in months. All mud and feces. They had no shelter and only wet gnat invested hay to eat. All have now been adopted. Take a look at them on Happy Tails. |
