UPDATE ON BETSY ROSE!






Last June, our Bucket Fund horse was Betsy Rose.  You can read her initial story here.

Here are some intake pics from a year ago… BHFER rescued her.

Poor Betsy Rose was so malnourished, she couldn't stand.  If BHFER hadn't arrived when they did, she would have passed for sure.

This was the first vet who administered to Betsy Rose. The chances were slim that this filly would make it…

A YEAR LATER…

A year later and BHFER had a special Birthday Party for Betsy Rose who did, indeed, make it!  There were many ups and downs, but a year later, this girl is the Queen of the Barn at BHFER!

The below letter came into my email box today…

    Yes. There are issues. I am not the expert on this but I know Theresa at BHFER can tell you all the details.

    I’m sorry to have to point this out but a year later and this baby is STILL waaaay underweight. Is there another health issue going on? (Yes — I have rehabilitated starvation cases and cared for really super old horses and educated law enforcement on body scoring and better-than-standard-of-care for horses and dogs and have been active in equine and canine rescue for over 30 years so yes I do know what I am talking about here.)
