October 2024: Manny (along with his pal Diego) has been adopted!
Isn't this just the picture of happiness?!! It's true! And it shows on everyone's faces. Diego and Manny were once neglected and lonely -- emaciated and infested. But during their time with us, each day, they grew healthier and happier, their trust in humans restored. And now they've found their forever home -- TOGETHER! -- with Connie and Jeff. Seeing them thriving is truly heartwarming. This isn't just an adoption...it's the story of lives reborn.
Manny is a 28-year-old Quarterhorse-type gelding who came to us (along with his pal, Diego) through a law enforcement seizure. Manny was emaciated at 1 of 9 on the body condition scale, infested with lice and hadn't seen a farrier in quite some time.
Despite all that, Manny is a very sweet horse and easy to handle. He is steadily gaining weight and doing well, following his foster mom around like a little puppy. We've dealt with his lice infestation, much to his relief! He has also had a pedicure and will soon have a much-needed dental float.
September 2024: Now this sweet and gentle boy is ready to find a home who will give him the love and care he deserves.
