[RC] rescue horses - jamie ward I wrote earlier asking for help (financial donations/hay etc) with four starving horses.I have a lady who is going to be a foster mom for one of them, (THANK YOU!!) We finally talked the lady out of them after three week's of trying, during this time they have had no hay and only what the neighbor's have thrown over the fences.The only help we have had is our local animal control and protection has gone out to talk to her a few time's.We finally got the go ahead from her so we waisted no time! My friend Teri and I picked up all four horses tonight, They came right up to us and I think would of put the halter's on them self's if they could of. I led the way up the driveway with the mustang pony, I don't know if he smelt hay in the trailer or what but, he almost drug me to it and tried to climb in, I tied him outside so we could load the old lady first we were worried she might go down and we wouldn't be able to get the other
horses out around her she was even more feeble today then the last time we saw her, if that's possible. It took allot of effort on her part to take that small step up in the trailer but we got her in and closed the divider Teri had to pull the two TB she was holding back they were also trying to climb in and take her with them if needed. I loaded the pony then the TB loaded themselves.It was like they new we were their to help them. A short trailer ride later and we were at the place they will be staying we had to unload them in a church parking lot because our old truck is only a 2 WD we walked them a quarter mile down to the barn.We were almost dragging the really bad one but we got them to the barn. We put the old girl in a stall and set a bunch of grass hay in-front of her. we put the pony by himself since his weight is not as bad we did not think the two TB's needed him chasing them from the hay. We then put the two TB ( reg names are dam SAM and
the other is SAM) together and dumped half a 150lb bale of grass in front of them.We then set their and watched them eat. It was a feeling i can not explain knowing we had made a difference, we saved these guys. I know bringing them back may be a long road but is worth it! I will be posting picture's soon it was to dark tonight to take any. Jamie Custom made rump rug's, all come with a warrantee and a guarantee !

about with a bucket and wheelbarrow. When I can't hobble, I shall roll my wheelchair out to the fence of the field where my horse's graze, and watch them. - Monica Dickens
