This is Buttercup, a Belgian-Percheron mix, 30 years old, rescued from the desert, May, 2004.

She is getting' in better shape, but gradually. Her teeth are worn down and her hooves need special care.

She was ridden and pulled wagons for 25 years, before she was turned loose in the desert.

A real sweetheart and very gentle.

Between vet, farrier and feed, she costs about $150 per month to take care of.

She was promised sanctuary, and never to be worked again. But she is in need of a sponsor and would love to be someone's foster horse.                                                                                                                                        Next  »  »  »  »
