Rocky is doing very well! He was in the hospital for a week – between the surgeries and initial recovery time. He would have stayed there for the rest of his life if he hadn’t decided to finally get into the trailer to come home… I guess riding in the trailer got him there which […]
I wanted to update you all! (In case you missed the original post on Rocky’s cancer diagnosis and eye removal, click here.) Rocky was in surgery for several hours. The surgeon removed 7″ of his penis (not simply the tissue involved) because he wanted to make sure all of the non-pigmented (pink) skin was eliminated. […]
Well… it was a bad week for Rocky Balboa. To refresh memories, I adopted Rocky from All Seated in a Barn. They found him in a meat auction in Texas. When he arrived here, he was missing his left eye and was fairly blind in his other eye. We didn’t know that he had penis […]
To me, when people band together to help another – who doesn’t ask for help but is in dire need – I just love that. I love pulling a soul from despair with unexpected kindness. And that is exactly Melia’s story. MELIA’S STORY She was left behind when her owners moved. The road was impassable […]
I could not let these 3 babies and 2 Moms (one Mom had already shipped…) end up in the kill pen. There was very little time left before these would be sold – and potentially separated from their mothers… I couldn’t stand it. So I pulled the trigger and helped LIFESAVERS when they sounded the […]
In June, these poor, unfortunate horses, Julia and Sundancer, were in the kill pen. Luckily for them, LIFESAVERS was at the auction and asked for donations to save them. And, lucky for us, we got word and were able to contribute to their rescue! WE STEPPED UP AND ADDED TO THE RESCUE FUND! Here is […]
Back in December, we helped LIFESAVERS save two mini mules (Jingle and Belle) and two old geldings (Snowball and Snowman). Well, last week, they made it out of quarantine in Texas and home to Lifesavers in CA! Click here to read the original post. JINGLE AND BELLE ARRIVAL VIDEOS! SNOWBALL AND SNOWMAN! Snowman looks great! […]
YOU DID IT! Yesterday, you all pulled together to help Lifesavers Wild Horse Rescue not only save Jingles and Bells (the mini Molly mules), but you donated enough to help save 2 more horses, Snowman and Snowball! What a great day! What a great way to celebrate the season! Thank you all for giving back. […]
Thank you all! In just a few days, we were able to gather enough donations to make a significant difference to those on the ground, helping equines (and helping the equines who are helping…) in North Carolina’s Hurricane Helene aftermath. NEW DONATIONS (IN ADDITION TO LAST WEEK’S DISTRIBUTION)! To read both of last week’s stories, […]
Thank you all! In just a few days, we were able to gather enough donations to make a big difference to those on the ground, helping equines (or helping the equines who bring supplies to humans) in need in North Carolina. NEW DONATIONS (IN ADDITION TO LAST WEEK’S DISTRIBUTION)! To read both of last week’s […]
I’ve been spending much time lately speaking to my friends, on the ground, in North Carolina. Thanks to you all, the Bucket Fund has been filling with generous contributions. I will post the most current receipts tomorrow – as we donate to those helping large animals during the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. You can […]
YOU are helping these incredible citizens who are doing all they can to aid stranded, starving equines who are victims of the devastation of Hurricane Helene. From what we are hearing, there is very little (if any) FEMA or Red Cross representation for humans… let alone their animals. For the past few days, The Horse […]
