Yes, the update is on the bottom of the first page I think. She got her leg caught in the barbed wire fence from pacing and running back and forth. |

I guess I expected the "sad update" to be the mare getting put down or sent to a sale. Hope you enjoy working with her - be safe and know what you are getting into with an untouched 3 year-old.

I saw her from a distance today and she looked okay. She had several cuts from the barbed wire but as far as her still holding her leg up, she isn't.
She'll pull through.  |

Location: Muskogee, OK | I guess I am confused as to why this is such a bad situation for the horse? She looks to be in good condition and is in a pasture full of grass. You also say there are other horses in this pasture with her.... This is how horses are meant to live. I'd bet she could care less that she has no human interaction, she is probably just interested in your horses.
While it's not ideal that these horses are all "un-touched", they are hardly looking to be lacking care, atleast from the pictures you posted. I'd say they've got it pretty good at the moment, especially for being rescues.

     I guess I am confused as to why this is such a bad situation for the horse?  She looks to be in good condition and is in a pasture full of grass.  You also say there are other horses in this pasture with her....

I didn't say it was a bad situation. I feel bad for her that she got hurt and she seems to be scared of any human contact. She paced the fence line for a week straight and wouldnt leave my horses. They all are healthy weight wise, I never said anything about that. The only horse that I can tell that needs medical attention is the older gelding. He is blind in his right eye and the eye is sinking back into his head. The man sais they are his daughter's and she lives put of state now and he just wants them gone. The man seems nice but I watched him shoot dead all his long horns but one baby and had to watch and listen to the baby cry for days for his mom. Do I think he would shoot these horses, I don't know but these horses could be used by someone I'm sure.

He didn't want them anymore. He shot them and then the truck that picks up dead animals came and took them away.
I really doubt he would shoot these horses but who knows. |

Agreed. It sounds like the full story is not known... I would be willing to guess he had a reason. Whether it be a herd sickness or something of the sort... But who knows! |
