Well, you did great for Betsy Rose!!
All of your prayers, thoughts and donations have aided this girl who was as close to death as possible…
(You can read her story here.)
Today, she can stand on her own, walk a little and she is gaining every day! Looking at her intake photos, I doubt many of us thought she would make it.
Thank goodness for BHFER who gave total devotion and vigilant attention to this little, finally lucky, little mare.

WHAT A TRANSFORMATION!
From this…
This is how BHFER found Betsy Rose – at her own home with her owners inside, letting her starve.
Betsy Rose trying to engage with the vet who first administered to her.
The fleet of volunteers who came to her rescue to get her outta there!
To this!…
Betsy Rose has been living in a sling for a month and is only now beginning to be able to walk without stumbling. But, such an improvement!
Betsy looks so much stronger!!
Grazing… she probably never thought she would ever graze again.

This is after a month of welfare… imagine how skinny she was on intake.

Sometimes love does tip the scales in our favor… THANK YOU TO ALL THAT HELPED THIS SWEET MARE!
AN UPDATE ON STORM
Storm was our May Bucket Fund recipient.
She had a horrible wither infection that could not be cured without surgery.
You can read her story here…
And today, she is almost recovered from her surgery and her infection! Unbelievable! Most vets gave her a very slim chance. But, UC DAVIS came through and saved this girl with your help.
Storm still loves her girls… she loves the little girls!
FROM THIS…
After months of twice daily cleaning, the wound would not heal due to the deep infection.
TO THIS!…
Here is a note with photos from Annette, Storm’s owner:
Look!!!! So much better and healing so well!
Looking really good!
Daily nursing after the life saving surgery.
This shot needs a caption.
Storm will live happily ever after with her Little girls…

Humbly I ask for help with my mare, Mama Tess, as our August Bucket Fund recipient. Click here to read her story and/or to donate.
Both girls are looking fabulous, thanks in part to the kind hearts and fundraising efforts of Horse and Man and its readership. I have no doubt that Tess will also be on her way to restored good health in no time!
