Joey's Story

A while back Powhatan Animal Control Officers were called out to investigate a carcass of a dead horse laying in a field only to discover that while the horse was emaciated and near death he was actually still alive. Representatives from the rescue were contacted and took the horse into their rehabilitation program and nursed him back to health. Latter they learned that Joey was, in his previous life, a champion in the show ring with many ribbons and awards. Joey is now back to full weight and health except he is blind in one eye and has severe cataracts in the other eye rendering him totally blind. He will be evaluated in the near future as a canidate for cataract surgery and we all wish him well. He is currently being fostered by one of the rescue volunteers. Thank you to everyone who has participated in his recovery.

                             

  Joey is amazing                                   

                              A little love for Joey

                              You go girl!

Happy New Year

Happy New Year everybody!
We hope that 2010 was good to everyone and that 2011 will be even better. We were very busy with the horses and the farm last year but looking back it was a very rewarding year for us. Our adopted rescues, Panda and Cocoa, are great and the fosters, J.J. and Shalimar are doing well and are back to their normal weight. Kathy is busy with the rescue barn horses and wouldn't trade it for anything. You all come for a visit whenever you can.
