I wanted to pass on this lovely post from SkyDog Sanctuary.
Both of these horses have been previous Drop in the Bucket Fund recipients. It is so heartwarming to see these two living TOGETHER – yes, together! They met and have become fast friends.
Here is Clare’s post about Read and Swayze.
–As an aside, Swayze is still awaiting surgery because he lost too much weight when he was removed from his ‘mare’ in preparation for his travels to the hospital. Swayze was so upset, he ran the fence and would not calm down. This was how/why Read and Swayze were put together. Read needed a kind friend, and Swayze needed to focus on someone new!
FROM SKYDOG:

The first photograph of Read in a kill pen in Oklahoma one year ago with his worried eye and puckered nervous lips

The holes in his face go all the way through to his nasal cavity but he does really well and breathes fine
OUR JUNE BUCKET FUND HORSE: SAMSON… BLINDED BY HIS OWNER AND STARVED, he was walked for 5.5 hours out of the Grand Canyon. Can we help right this wrong?! Click here to read his story. Click here to donate!

Thank you so much from us all at Skydog Sanctuary for helping get Read here and helping him give him a forever home here x
