Beautifuls Story

Reminiscing your road to recovery and the genesis of our bond.

My first thought when I met you was "gosh what have they done to you? Will I be able to help this poor boy?" I was terrified of getting attached and then failing. Falling in love and then loosing- and mostly...disappointing this poor fragile being.
It was my first time taking-in a rescue horse and I must admit that the realization of what this truly means, hit way too late. Looking back, Im glad over my naivety though. Meeting you and going this road side by side changed our boths life's. As hard as it was, for nothing in the world would I give that away.

When Fabio brought you out of the transporter, 
I thought he brought the oldest horse in the world. You wobbled like a fragile grandpa, could barely walk, your hoofes looked terrible, raw skin showed on your crooked body and the pain was so obvious to see. Never before have I seen such a neglected horse. At least not in person. It terrified me. We had issues before with our horses, but this was a whole different level. 
 
I hoped for the best, but you where so fearful and avoidant- introducing myself was quite obviously impossible since your anxiety overshadowed everything going on. So we carefully brought you inside, offered some water and food and then let you rest for a while. The first thing I did after our first meet was cry for five minutes and then immediately call our vet and the physiotherapist from the city. 
 
Certainly, the very first step would be to gain your trust though and make you feel something you haven't received in a very very long time:  love. 
So till we could help you physically, I made sure you knew I was there and no threat. It was too early for treats or touches, but I talked to you calmly and explained how your life will change for the better now. 
 
This journey was just about to begin, but seeing that sad scared look in your eyes told me I'll give everything, to help this poor little soul.

In 2025 Loshenka Makeover ・ By StinkyAna

Event: Loshenka Makeover 

 

Phase Number: 1

HorseID#: 11073

 

Issues: Severe Rain Rot, Overgrown Hooves

Description: This horse was kept in a damp environment and neglected for months on end. When finally removed from their previous home by animal control, the rescue found that the horse had severe rain rot and that its hooves were very overgrown. The horse has learned to compensate with an odd, disjointed movement, and it will take some time and physical therapy to help this horse regain its normal movement and coat.
