Meet Hershey and Max. Hershey is a Thirteen year old pony very under weight and Max is a
small pony with a leg problem. We have Hershey on a special diet to slowly put weight on him
and Max has been seen by the vet. The x-rays of Maxs leg have been sent to Peterson and
Smith to find out if there is any procedure that can be done to correct the problem. They are
both modeling their new winter blankets, Hershey showing that a real man can wear pink.......

HOME FOUND FOR BOTH. THEY GOT TO STAY TOGETHER
AND NOW LIVE IN WINTER HAVEN FL.

August 2007 we picked up Evie a 20 year old Thoroughbred. She had been left in a field to starve with nothing but weeds and a little grass. She is a
one (one being the worst possible) on the Henneke Body Scoring chart with no fat tissue, bony extremely emaciated. When found she was so
dehydrated her manure was dry and crumbly if not for a concerned person she would have died in the field. She is covered with a severe case of
Rain Rot to the point of her back legs are swollen. Her feet are in awful condition with growth and cracks stretching almost the length of the hooves.

8/8/2007 Dr. Roberts of Central Florida Equine Hospital came today to work on Eve's teeth and give her vaccinations. After examining her
teeth she said the teeth were nothing but points and valleys, her whole mouth was in horrible condition. Evie was given Anesthesia and
her teeth were floated the Dr.said Evie would need her teeth floated again in six months. Dr Roberts examined her back legs and
determined the swelling is from a severe case of Rain Rot which is also covering most of her upper body. We have to give her baths with
anitfungal shampoo and apply the Privasan Steroid Ointment each day. Blood was drawn for her Coggins test and she received her
Encephalite/Tetanus inject. Dr. Roberts left the other vaccinations with me to give to her in a week or two, we didn't want to over load her
system with all of the vaccination at once. The Doctor agreed Evie is from 200 to 300 pounds under weight and it will be a slow process for
her to regain the weight. Total charges for today were $332.00
The break down of todays veterinarian cost is:
Farm Call $50.00 - Anesthesia $40.00 - Teeth Floating $80.00 - Vaccinations Encephalitis/Tetanus $20.00, Influenza/Rhino $17.00, West
Nile Virus $25.00, Rabies $20.00 - Coggins $30.00 - Privasan Steroid Ointment $50.00

New Home for Hope February 2008
Thank you Young Family
13 year old Hope(Registered Tahamas High Dream) When we received Hope
she had been left with no water or food for several days.
Update May 2008
Hope's new owners found out Hope is actually descended from a brother to
the horse Haleigh's grandfather showed and won at the Appaloosa World
Championships 3 times. This was exciting news for the young lady because
her grandfather had passed away a few months before her grandmother
adopted Hope. She had learned a love for the Appaloosa breed from him
and now will be using Hope in a new Equine program at her school.

March 2008 New Rescue

Paladin a 7 year old Tennessee Walker/Quarter Gelding. He has been bounced
from three places in the last six months. One because of serious health problems,
one that didn't have the experience or knowledge to deal with a horse and who's
solution was to take him to the auction for the kill buyer to purchase. His last stop
before H.O.R.S.E. Inc was a horse lover that couldn't see him going to slaughter,
she saved him and then called us for help. He needs his Coggins, vaccinations,
teeth floated (they have never been done) hoof trimming and a lot of detangling
done on this tail which is a total knotted mess from top to bottom, it looks as if it
hasn't been combed in a year . Because of lack of handling and some other
issues he is spooky at this time. He is very friendly and sweet and wants to please
he was broke and trained in the past. With time, handling, and patience he will be
a wonderful horse for someone.
3/15/2008 Doctor Roberts of Central Florida Equine Hospital gave Paladin his
vaccinations, coggins, floated his teeth she also cleaned his sheath which was
swollen. While cleaning him she removed a bean the size of a large marble, a
bean is a heavy accumulation of smegma in the urethral. The day after the
cleaning the swelling in his sheath had gone away. The total cost of his
veterinarian care was $295.00
3/24/2008 Farrier Jeniffer Hill came and trimmed Paladin's hooves, he was a total
gentleman and did not give her any problems.
April 12, 2008 Paladin has been adopted. His new owners came several times
all the way from South Brevard in the last month and worked with him. With a
joint effort of many, he is now much calmer and trusting I am confident with
time he will be a wonderful riding horse. Thank you Diane and Jeff
