She is muddy and shedding but a beautiful roan underneath. I can't begin to tell you how happy I am to have her here. She is a Clydesdale cross about 15.3 hands and 6 years old. We are calling her Abbie for short. Just had to share her. It all went very well yesterday bringing her home. The spoiling has just begun....
STORY CONTINUED: I guess I never did explain her story here. Abigail was saved from a pen of horses being sent for slaughter for dog food in Canada. She had a colt with her and they had both been abused and starved. The colt was so ill it died shortly after rescue. Abigail was treated and fed until she was stable enough to be given to a new home, ours. She needs to gain a hundred pounds before we even think about riding her. She is doing very well and I am so sad to think her life almost ended before it began. I want to thank Another Chance for Horses for saved her and Jamie who fostered her for giving me the chance to get to know this wonderful horse and for giving this horse a chance.
