Trabuco Canyon, CA: 25 y/o Gelding Needs Home ASAP

By

Stetson is a 25 year-old, 16-hand chestnut Thoroughbred gelding who needs a good home. He was a lesson horse for the last few years of his life, but was diagnosed as being neurological, and will trip when ridden, so had to be retired. His owner could no longer use him for lessons, so asked Hanaeleh for help in placing him. At that time he was very thin and in need of vet care.

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...]
