SATURDAY IS PHOBLOG DAY!

(Thanks for hanging in there with me… I’ve been absorbed in my life and missed the Saturday PhoBlogs for the first time in 10 years! But, we are BACK!)

Today, my work is closed down again due to Covid… so I am home today. I think I will clean.

HERE WE GO!

This was Misty of Chincoteague’s 74th birthday!

If you are a Warner Bros cartoon baby, this will be funny!

Gorgeous wild ones.

This cracked me up!

Needs a caption…

Such love…

Made me laugh.

Something you don’t see everyday…

I saw this on FB and thought it was pretty. I don’t know who took this photo.

Idaho Equine Hospital posted this pic of a neighbor bringing in a horse…

This photo grabbed me… I thought the colors were so fresh and pretty.

Look how the tree fills in the face of the 2nd deer!

More gorgeous, wild friends

So pretty.

EARLY AUGUST BUCKET FUND – because SHE NEEDS US! Meet Luna, the Friesian mare…

Our August Bucket Fund is starting early because Luna (18-20 year old Friesian mare) really, really needs our help. Luna has been rescued by Minnesota’s Beyond Sanctuary, run by veterinarian, Melissa Shelton. Shelton was asked to take Luna after the mare’s wheelchair bound and frail owner surrendered her after a humane investigation.

Luna is in very bad shape. Starved, neglected, horrible teeth, bad feet, untreated Cushings, deteriorated health due to neglect and DSLD. But, the good news… Dr. Shelton is doing everything in her power, around the clock, to bring this girl back from the brink.

All donations are 100% tax deductible. THANK YOU in advance!

HER STORY…

Not much is known since she was a surrender… however, we do know that relatives of the owner felt the horse was just old and looked in this condition because of old age.

Oy.

We have since learned that Luna responded to immediate care.

She is very sweet – and very weak.

Dr. Shelton says that currently, Luna is too weak to be sedated for Xrays… too weak to have her feet shaped (to help with the DSLD) and definitely too weak to have her teeth done. Right now, she is being fed 6 times a day per the UC DAVIS refeeding program. On top of all of that, Luna has untreated Cushings.

But, after a bath and some gentle grooming, Luna showed her bright eyes! There is life iin this mare and we’d like to bring her back!

What better way than in the care of a vet in her own Sanctuary!

PLEASE LET US HELP THEM HELP HER – and right this wrong!

All donations are 100% tax deductible. THANK YOU in advance! This mare is so kind and sweet… let’s help her gain her health so she can live her life in Sanctuary!

After a bath…
