Whisper Update — Dec 16 2008

Yesterday Laura brought Whisper a beautiful new heavyweight Weatherbeata blanket for Whisper. Last night when Hannah was out to check in on her, we took off the canvas blanket and the blanket Hannah had loaned her and put the new blanket on over her pretty plaid...

Whisper Update — Dec 14 2008

Dr. Hannah was here this morning to check again on Whisper. Her temp was 98 degrees so she is still staying warm, but we added a 3rd blanket on her because it is just so cold out there, and very windy as well. We put some ointment on her wounds, and we really wanted...

Whisper — Background and History — Dec 14 2008

Whisper was rescued a week ago by Snohomish City Animal Control. Whisper was being kept in the backyard of a Snohomish city resident along with 3 other horses and severely neglected. Apparantly, Whisper went down and couldn’t get up, and she called Pilchuck out. They...

Deeds Update from Nov 30 2008 and Dec 7 2008

Update from Deeds’ adopter, Kate: Well, we didn’t do a photo shoot because we have a new wrinkle, er bump… The herd bliss was apparently on temporary hiatus and Deeds has been kicked, very hard, in the shoulder. The pressure of the kick appears to have split the...

Biscotti — Dec 6, 2008

Biscotti  is now a gelding! Everything went well and very quickly, he got up smoothly after the surgery and Kayo and he are sharing a stall and are “gelding buddies”. Here some photos to start off his new thread, taken about a month ago. His winter coat looks...

Sasha — Dec 6, 2008

Happy Saturday to all! I hear you on the dream barn. I think I’d probably clone Pond-a-Luce‑a with a few slight changes. They have a nice hay loft and a wash rack with warm water. It came in handy today when Sasha had her first dental! She did very well and had two...

Dory Update — Dec 2, 2008

I went out and visited Dory on Saturday at her foster home (and brought a potential adopter to visit her as well). She is doing fabulous! She’s in with three other horses and they all cater to her as the baby — she sneaks her way in slowly to the other horses’ stalls...

Annie Update from Dec 2 2008

Last report I had from Andrea (which was on Saturday) is that Annie is doing well, but of course is much more reactive than Willow and Andrea is going slow with her…working on desensitizing, learning how to tie and have baths and all that. She’s tacked her up, lunged...

Biscotti — Dec 2, 2008

Hope is up at Julie’s right now, and Scotti is still here with me. Kayo and Scotti are scheduled for their brain surgery on Saturday…then the fun begins of the twice daily forced exercise. *sigh* — I am not looking forward to that part, but am looking forward to the...
