She let me do all kinds of stuff with her mane for over an hour before she wanted to graze. She was content with me making her look fabulous while she watched the lesson horses get ridden.

She seems to really want to meet other horses, but people think she’s unpredictable and crazy. That’s far from the truth. She’s just spunky, which is normal for her breed. Her socialization skills with people has improved tremendously since I started working with her. She’ll let strangers pet her while she’s in her stall and doesn’t get scared of children.

Her actual owner paid her a visit yesterday and was absolutely beside herself over the state she is in. She said she’s worried she won’t be able to afford everything Sandy needs. I’m having someone give her my number so we can coordinate care costs. I can help out with everything aside from boarding fees, so I’m willing to take on vet bills and supplements and the farrier and stuff if her owner can do board.

I want Ms. Sandy Lou to have the best old age and I’m willing to spend my hard-earned money to give her that.
