Dusty Rose

The newest addition to my little horse family...Dusty Rose. She was brought home to stay February 1, 2010. The poor baby was SUPER thin, bloated with worms and pure water diarrhea! Her tail was matted with feces and she was completely not using one of her back legs. I paid WAY too much for her (which wasn't much to begin with). After two days on clean water, fresh hay and good grain her BMs were back to normal and after two weeks I was seeing some pep in her still gimpy step.

Jace is totally in love with "my Dusty," he calls her. That is his horse and he's not afraid to tell people so.

Looking MUCH better...
Still got a-ways to go, though
Sweet face

After Dusty learned us and got used to having us around, she has turned out to be one of the sweetest little creatures on this earth. You can just look out the window and she's quick to nicker at you! She'll look deep in your eyes and just stare. She'll follow you around like a puppy and make a fuss over Jace and Claire. She's gentle, kind, and calm.
She has totally captured my heart...
