Edit: just $285 left to reach our hay goal for this week yall!! We are SOOO close🥹🫶

Prepped and ready for the first bit of cold weather we’re getting tonight in Texas! I’m thankful there will be no rain, just cold 🥶

Everyone that needs blankets has them on, and fresh hay has been put out. Not super worried about any of our horses, what a wonderful thing to be able to say! 😄

I did just buy hay this weekend, and most of it went out today. But, we believe in horses having access to forage 24/7 so we do what we have to do! If you’d like to help purchase hay, today we paid $720 for 8 bales of coastal.

Any help we receive towards this would be amazing ♥️ we are a recognized 501c3 so all donations are tax deductible 😊

We got to meet Bruce today 🩵

Bruce, unfortunately, has a pretty severe case of something neurological going on. The vet is not able to fully determine whether it is EPM , or wobblers 🥲 He has been treated for EPM and I think there may have been some slight improvement during the time he was getting the medication. Bruce’s “official” mom saved him from a less then ideal future with all his issues. We talked, and decided to bring Bruce to the rescue! We wanted to continue to try and help, and see if we could give him a comfortable life for the remainder of his years. Bruce is only a year and a half old, so he’s very young to have all these issues. We are hopeful there is a future and GOOD quality of life for this sweet boy. At least so that he can enjoy what he has left, he deserves it ♥️

A really big thank you to Crystal and Richard for helping out with Bruce, letting him come hangout with yall, and loving him 🫶 it is wonderful to work with such awesome people who want to help horses. How lucky I get to call them my friends 🥰

👇Featured is Gretta, one of our sanctuary residents. We purchased her from a horse trader as brought her into the rescue 1/6/24. She was very underweight, ans it also became apparent rather quickly that she also had neurological and coordination issues. She has thrived since being given the proper diet, care, and vetting that she needed. Gretta will remain within our sanctuary until the end of her days. A horse like this does not deserve to be moved to another home, she deserves stability. So our home will be her last 💕

2024 -> today 🤩

Back in June of last year, we came together to raise the money to purchase Ringo - and bring him into the rescue.

In his younger years, he was used in a riding company to take people through the mountains 🏔️ we found old pictures of him carrying kids through the trails. As he got older, he was unable to perform like he use to… and eventually found himself at an auction. He was purchased by a horse trader, which then gave us the opportunity to buy him and give him a new path. An older horse like Ringo, needing daily maintenance, is a horse that is difficult to place. We did not want to see him going from one auction, or home, to the next.

We found out later on, after a vet evaluation and X-rays, that ringbone was at play and was contributing to him being “off”. With maintenance, Ringo was able to live a very normal, comfortable, life! ♥️

Not only were we able to get him back on track with his health, but he has landed in an amazing home with Rebecca on her care farm. I think it’s safe to say Ringo is living his best life, and making some kiddos VERY happy these days. The retirement every horse deserves 🥰

As always, a big shoutout to all our people, our village, our supporters, donor, adopters and everyone in between - for helping create happy endings like these 🫶

A friendly reminder we are ALWAYS in need of panels for the rescue 😊

If you or somebody you know has panels they are willing to donate, we would gladly come and get them. We are a recognized 501c3 organization, so a donation receipt can be provided as well 🤓

We use panels for many things at the rescue, especially for our “feeding stations”! This makes feeding time MUCH easier, and drama free for our horses. Panels also make it much easier for us to create paddocks, and separate pens with the ability to also take them down and move them elsewhere as needed. The ability to build pens, and also take them down to move them elsewhere is SUCH a huge benefit to us, and makes things much easier with the horses. We have a LOT of horses at the rescue, but of course they aren’t all housed together! Our biggest group right now is 13 (out of 49 😉)

We are located in San Angelo TX, but are willing to travel a reasonable distance to come and pick up ♥️

I took a quick pic of Henry, Highway Man and Pearl in their feeding stations- waiting for seconds 😆👇

Sandow says where’s my treats!? 😝

I was instructed to ask for more treats for the crew today 😆 a 15lbs bag lasts us for a while, and we’re getting to the end of ours! You can order them off of Amazon to ship to us - OR call them in at our local tractor supply and I can go pick them up 😙🫶

Interesting read! We have used this for wounds as well (under vet recommendation)…. Does anyone have links to credible research on this?

🧴 It is Medicine Monday! And it is all yellow. That is right we are talking about Furacin or Fura-zone Ointment (Nitrofurazone). Not all wound products are created equally and may be a detriment to wound healing.

💛 Nitrofurazone is a topical water-soluble ointment with antibacterial properties for superficial wounds. And it is commonly used in combination with DMSO gel as a “sweat” for horses with cellulitis. Nitrofurazone should never be used on open wounds. Research has shown that nitrofurazone inhibits wound healing by as much as 24%.

☣️Nitrofurazone is associated with carcinogenicity, defined as the potential of a biomaterial to promote tumor formation. This has led to many horse owners throwing out their supply due to this risk.

🩺 We always recommend seeking veterinary advise and an exam when it comes to wounds. Wounds may involve important structures including bone, tendon sheaths and/or joints. It is important that wounds be thoroughly examined by your veterinarian so they can recommend appropriate diagnostics, treatment options and possible referral to an equine hospital.

❌ Now, Fura-Zone is no longer available; other nitrofurazone products are still available.

All refeeding cases differ in time, some take longer and some take less. In this case, Amos bounced back in 3 months. He just wasn’t being fed, and on top of that- he’s hardly even GOT any teeth! (He’s a cribber 🤷‍♀️)

He’s starting to get a nice winter coat coming in, I will still blanket him when it gets cold though.

He hates mash 😆 not sure why the change, so I switched him over to soft senior feed + alfalfa. I would say Amos looks pretty good now.

Also, notice the change in his facial expression. The top pic was his first day home, bottom pic from this evening. I even saw him running and kicking up his heels the other day, I didn’t know he could even move like that 🤔
