BEFORE
Sport just "off the boat"
Vicki saved him from the slaughter house
He was way underweight

|
He turned out
to be a great horse and could really ride beautifully !
 |
Vicki is kind and understands the horses
Skin and bones as we rescued him from slaughter. We had him many months
and fed him well. He is now in a loving home in Idaho.

AFTER
Below
is a copy of an email that Vicki got from a lady in Kansas, named
Denise. A few months ago Vicki was going to the Calhan, CO horse
Auction and she was rescuing horses from being sold for slaughter. At
that auction Vicki rescued a very unique horse named Sport. Vicki
bought him from the slaughter house dealer for a few hundred bucks.
Nobody else would bid on him, nobody here in the "wild west" wanted to
take him home. You see Sport is actually the kind of horse that
probably brought many a young child (more often than not girls) to the
show and won many ribbons. He is no small, short, solid cattle horse
that the local cowboys might be used to. He is actually a show
horse. A Saddlebred. A very tall, very high stepping and refined,
highly trained horse, that can only be appreciated as a thing of beauty
when carrying that child in the show. But in the auction they laughed
at him and called him a bony "giraffe" and sent him to the
slaughterhouse, that is until Vicki intervened. He was all skin and
bones as he'd been underfed and neglected for a long time. After we
brought him home we tended to his wounds and fed him well for many
months. I finally got to ride him. He is really tall! but rides like a
dream. I really enjoyed him. Vicki used the internet and was able
to find a good home for him. Read the email below their picture
of Sport with two little kids who love him. He is now in a loving home
in Idaho.
Sport is now happy
with a
great family !
Hi
Vicki!
I
just
wanted to let you know that Sport is adjusting well. Our 4 year
old is in LOVE with him! She prefers hanging out with him than
doing anything else outside. It's funny! She tells anyone
that will listen that she has a horse named Sport. She's ridden
him more than me or my husband. He's so gentle with her but if
Dave or I get on, then he's hot to trot. After I rode him the
first Sunday I told Dave that there was no way that he was a kids
horse. Boy, was I wrong. Saddle him up, put Anna on, and
he's the perfect gentleman.
Thanks
for
making our horse dream come true! I'll mail the halter back to
you tomorrow. I keep forgetting to bring it to work!
