Let me start out by introducing the rescue horses that we have at our quarantine/isolation facility. That happens to be my house; all three acres of it! Yes, we are full and seeking foster and adoption homes for these special equines.
I have the honor of fostering Little Richard, Jack, Ginger, Maggie, Raven and Racer. I used to have four horses of my own, but to make room for horses in need, I am now down to one palomino mare, Daisy. I have owned her since she was two and now she is thirteen. I guess you could say she is a "keeper".
I will start with Little Richard. He was rescued in December 2009. He was a good stallion at the time, but now he is a GREAT gelding! He is a beautiful Thoroughbred standing almost 16 hands.
He would have died this past winter. He already had that "empty stare" that we have seen before when a horse has already given up. But thanks to the PER rescue team, volunteers and our awesome veterinarian, Little Richard has blossomed and he is doing very well. Anyone who fosters or adopts this horse will be very blessed!
Tomorrow, I'll introduce you to another very special equine! See ya! Diane
