The Starved Horse
My heart hurts because I am not loved.
I wish I could fly away just like a dove.
My tail no longer swishes back and forth.
I have lost everything that I was worth.
I am too skinny and too weak to care.
Something that no-one should ever have to bear.
Maybe I will get fed today.
Why am I teasing myself this way?
I know I will not get food or water.
To my owner I am just a bother.
They might love me I try to think.
Nicer thoughts I try to seek.
Today I will lay down in the mud.
Fall asleep and never wake up.

Julie's Story: |
This horse is NOT up for Adoption. Julie is an off the track Thoroughbred. She is about 22 years old. She has had pin firing to her legs which is an old way of killing pain to keep them running on the track. She is about 16.2 hands and is bay in color. We found her in Kankakee with horrible wounds to her legs and she was so thin we did not think she would make the trip home. She spent 3 days at the veterinarian for her wounds. They had to inject antibiotics directly into the joint and she stood and let them. She must have known they were trying to help her. She is not sound because of her injuries and thus cannot be ridden. Julie is a sweet girl who has found some friends at her new home. Julie is being sponsored by Cindy & Faith Dauber. A picture of this beautiful mare will be coming soon. Julie had another bath last night. She loves her baths. If I have a garden hose she comes up to me to try to get in the water. She is doing great. | |
