RIP Maggie Rose

By

It is with great sadness that we have to report the passing of Maggie Rose this weekend. Maggie had been having health difficulties since July, and although her owner had worked with nutritionists and veterinarians, Maggie continued to go downhill. Her owner finally made the difficult decision to put Maggie down. Maggie was an Arabian cross who was already elderly when she came to us in July, 2012 from the Riverside Animal Shelter.

We wiped the area clean and contacted the vet, who said to put him on some antihistamines for a few days as several horses seemed to … [Read More...]

Venus’ New Shoes

By

Last month we noticed that Venus was beginning to look a little tender-footed. We noticed an indication of an old abscess that had burst and some bruising on her feet. We assumed this was due to walking on the new gravel driveway, so we made sure not to let her walk on it. We also put some boots on … [Read More...]
