Sunday update on our Bucket Fund Horses: Dorothy and Willie.






(I’m sorry this didn’t get published on time last night to be in your mailbox this morning.  FB people will see it on time…)

UPDATE ON DOROTHY:

Dorothy is a blm branded mustang who was found in a feedlot in Kansas. She is tiny, incredibly skinny and 25 years young.  (Dorothy if from the Pine Nut HMA in Nevada where they just concluded a horrendous roundup.)  You can read her story here.

Update:  Dorothy made it to Skydog Oregon where she is in quarantine.

This is Dorothy in the killpen in Kansas.

Here is the note from Skydog:

Dorothy
I promised you would meet her here first and so please welcome Dorothy. 

Her arrival and entrance were as quiet and low key as her rescue.  She is skinny and tiny but already loved.  A few more days in quarantine and she will be out and about – when she is strong enough. 

We might add her to the babies and oldies herd so she can hang out with the kiger Boys and Louisa and honey Palouse but also watch the babies play and grow.

i can’t wait to meet her when I get back up there – welcome home Dorothy – you’re not in Kansas anymore ??????

THE NOT SO GOOD NEWS… Dorothy is so malnourished – even though she has all the excellent food she needs right now, this girl is eating her footing.  Skydog is remedying this, but this behavior just proves the starvation she endured.

This is Dorothy in her quarantine arena at Skydog Oregon.

WILLIE UPDATE:

Willis also a BLM branded mustang who was found in a kill pen.  While there, in those terrifying and horrid conditions,  Willie picked up strep.  He is being treated and in quarantine.  Soon he will be in Skydog Malibu to recover.

You can read his story here.

Willie picked up strep while in the kill pen. He is being treated and in quarantine – awaiting his trip to Skydog.
