Update on Sacred! Last week we announced that one of our past horses was found at an Iowa auction being sold as an 18 year old trail horse, when he is actually 23, fairly green broke, and unsound for riding due to a congenital hock condition and arthritis. He had already passed through several auctions before this one, and we are so fortunate to have been notified of where he was. We scrambled to get Sacred out before he could be sold on again, working with a wonderful local rescue to arrange his sale, pickup, and vet care. Unfortunately, Sacred isn’t in great condition. He is very underweight and shaky, but still has a good appetite, so we are hopeful all he needs for that problem are good groceries. However, he also has yellow discharge from both nostrils. Vets haven’t been able to pinpoint the cause yet, but he has some fractured teeth that could be infected. The cost to extract those would run our bill up by several hundred more, or if that is not the cause, he would need expensive sinuscopy or CT scans. If he recovers well, we intend to transport Sacred back home to us. We have already raised enough to cover Sacred’s sale and part of his vet bills - thank you ALL so much! We are still looking at a minimum of $1,190 to cover his dental and further diagnostic exams, and another $2,300 to transport Sacred from Iowa to Wyoming. If you can, please consider donating to help us bring Sacred home ❤️ PayPal: [email protected] Venmo: @mountainshadowsequine Links in bio!

Here comes the sun ☀️ And with warmer weather also comes bath time! It’s not often that rescue horses are desensitized to water before arriving here, but it’s important to learn. For example, Sedona needs to have the scabs from her old sores washed with medicated shampoo, and bath time preps all of them in case they get an injury that needs to be cold hosed. But it’s also fun to get them all shiny, soft, and clean… but no guarantees that it will last long! #mser #horses #horserescue #equinerescue #equestrianlife #bathtime

The reality we have to live with is that rideable horses are far more desirable than unrideable horses. Nearly all the horses we pick up at auction who have no interest from private buyers are unrideable, and it’s not a theme we can ignore. It’s our mission and duty to make sure the horses we adopt out are given the best chance at life in good homes, where they never have to face the risk of going to auction again. We emphasize that we do not train ALL our horses to ride. We had, and currently have, several horses who either cannot be ridden due to physical limitations, or are not mentally suited to carry a rider without stress or fear. We love them and care for them all the same, and do not force them to ride. But companion horses are so much harder to place, and are returned to us more frequently. #mser #mountainshadowsequine #horse #horses #horserescue #horserehab #equinerescue #equinerehab #riding #horsetraining

Spring in Wyoming! ☀️❄️ They say if you don’t like the weather, wait 5 minutes… or in this case, an hour and 18 minutes for the weather to do a 180 🤦‍♀️ Luckily, all the horses have shelters! #mser #mountainshadowsequine #spring #winter #sun #snow #weather #wyoming #wyominglife #laramiewyoming #horses #horserescue #equinerescue #equinerehab

I guess Rio prefers “floor” service… 😂 #mser #mountainshadowsequine #horses #foals #horserescue #equinerehab #equinerescue #equestrian #equestrianlife #smoothasbutter #grainingtime

This is one of the hard parts of rescue, where the work and the effort takes years before it starts to pay off. A simple hoof trim may not seem like a big deal, but with Adora, this milestone has been 2.5 years in the making! We are so grateful for her trainers who prove, time and time again, that patience can win out, and look forward to Adora’s next milestone!#mser #mountainshadowsequine #horse #horserescue #equinerescue #horserehab #equinerehab #farrier #hoofcare #hooftrimming #equestrianlife #equestrian
