For Adoption: Abe, 3 Yr Old Mule and Starlight, 2 Yr Old Filly

By

Abe and Starlight: The Backstory In April, Hanaeleh posted that we were trying to save two baby foals who were going to be sent to slaughter. Their mothers had already been shipped :-( and these babies had literally hours before they were going to be put on the truck to Mexico (laws state that any horse six months or older can be sent to slaughter).

Rylee began settling in quickly. She wasn't underweight like many of our rescues, but she always seemed hungry, so we put her on a diet that included a lot of forage so she could eat more. Rylee hadn't been worked or ridden because she has DSLD (degenerative suspensory ligament disease). DSLD is a disease … [Read more...]
