Chilly Pepper – ONLY 2 PAIR LEFT TO SAVE, We were given until noon to save them due to truck issues

, , , 0

The following is from Chilly Pepper – Miracle Mustang:

nly two pair left. Please help me save them. I had to choose, so I just grabbed numbers, but it will eat me alive if those 2 moms and babies don’t get saved.

$1500 will get Moms, babies and unborn babies safe. After that I have to figure out the rest of the hauling expenses and I imagine they would like some food when they get here.

I am sorry about the urgency, but got the call yesterday. Definitely wasn’t ready for this, but I guess that is why they are called emergencies.

Thank you

Thank you as always.

Hugs & love, Palomino

Chilly Pepper 911 call for 7 Pregnant Mamas with babies at their side. Clock is ticking

, , , 0

The following is from Chilly Pepper – Miracle Mustang:

As usual, there is never even time to grieve the loss of those we love.

I received an urgent plea to try and save 7 pregnant donks with the babies at their side.

Mama Donkeys slaughtered for their hides. Do you want to help save them?

Ok, I am reeling from the loss of Lou, and what he went through. There are times like this when it seems too hard to fight anymore. It is just too overwhelming and never ending.

Then I get the call, and I am doing the only thing I can. Letting folks know about the need, and trying to save some Pegnant Mama burros and the babies at their side. THESE MOMS, and some of the bigger babies will be SLAUGHTERED FOR THEIR HIDES. ***See below.***

I don’t know any other way to heal except by helping save others to honor the ones who didn’t survive. I have always known Donkey hides were used and in demand, however I had no idea of the scope. Read the article from American Wild Horse Campaign in the pix below. China produces 5000 tons of EJIAO for medicinal n cosmetic purposes. China needs EIGHT – TEN MILLION donkey hides (See article below from American Wild Horse in the pix) to fill the demand to supply the demand for their products. We can’t save them all, but I sure would like to help these 7 pairs. If you would like to help with Lou’s vet bill, or help save these precious souls, I will fight for them. Honestly it is up to y’all. If I can’t save them, at least I know I tried. I am sorry if this is alot, I know it is for me. I simply had to ask if anyone wants to save these kids,

Honestly It is hard to even post this fundraiser. However, it was dumped in my lap this morning, and these donkeys deserve the same amount of effort as Lou did.

If you want to help the donkeys, please note that is what your donation is for. I will pull as many as we can raise funds for.

Thank you as always.

Hugs & love, Palomino

Chilly Pepper – RIP tiny Lou. Our precious baby fought so hard

, , , 0

The following is from Chilly Pepper – Miracle Mustang:

RIP Lou. The tears are pouring. Our beautiful boy left us tonight. He had his milk, went to sleep under the heat lamps for his normal nap, and quietly slipped away to heaven. I believe he took the last shattered piece of my heart with him.

Hospice rescue is simply the hardest. None of us want to go through the pain, yet we will ALWAYS fight with our precious kids if they are fighting and need us in their corner. I think it is a very precious gift from God to be able to bring these babies/horses some good food, loving arms and to ease their horrible pain and to let them know what it feels like to be properly cared for, even if it is for such a short time. It is such a blessing to know he left with his tiny belly full, sleeping peacefully under the warm light and with less pain. It is truly crushing to lose them, and I have never seen a baby so badly injured, fight so hard to not only stay alive, but to fight so hard just to get up because he “had stuff to do”.

Would I do the drive and spend the money again if I was asked to help? Yes, of course. Doc said it was 50/50, and we ALL agreed with his will to fight it would have been wrong not to fight with him. My heart is crushed into a million pieces, and I didn’t know I could hurt so badly. With Melody, (TX horse), my dear friend Lisa passing from the car crash, and now my precious baby, it feels like I have no heart left, just a ripping pain where it used to be

The hardest part of all is that this was caused by a human. There is no excuse, and I hope that God avenges Lou’s horrible suffering. I went inside to get a bite and prepare the clay. His skin had come completely off from the rope injuries. There was no telling how badly his internal injuries might be, but with the proper meds, he had a chance if it was just from inflammation.

Another thing that makes it so hard is getting them too late. Both Melody and Lou might have survived if I had gotten them sooner. Can you even imagine how cold and scary it was for Lou to lay out in the open, unable to even stand? I have no words, or none that I can say. Yet I never know what I am limping in to. You just go when you get called. Even knowing the outcome, he was only 1 week or so old, and he not only deserved the love and kindness, he simply needed it.

Reading this through the tears, I hope it makes sense. Thank you for giving this precious boy a chance.

We still have his vet bill and the costs to get him home and buried.

How one teenage voice sparked change for wild horses

, , , 0

The following is from the American Wild Horse Campaign:

At the American Wild Horse Conservation (AWHC), we are constantly inspired by the dedication and passion of our supporters.

Today, we want to share the incredible story of Kristie Churchly and her teenage daughter, Layla, whose advocacy for America’s wild horses has sparked meaningful change.

Their journey began with a family trip to Sand Wash Basin Herd Management Area (HMA) in northwest Colorado, where they were captivated by the beauty and strong family bonds of the wild mustangs living there. Seeing the iconic stallion Picasso sealed their passion for wild horse conservation.

That passion continued to grow over the years, culminating in a remarkable moment in Layla’s high school biology class. After a lesson on wild horse management that left out critical details about the challenges these animals face and the humane conservation solutions available, Layla saw an opportunity.


Photo by Tandin Chapman

Determined to make a difference, she conducted research, met with her teacher, and helped expand the curriculum to present a more comprehensive and accurate portrayal of wild horse issues. Her courage and enthusiasm inspired her classmates and demonstrated the power of one thoughtful voice to spark positive change.

Layla’s advocacy didn’t stop there — she even gentled a yearling mustang named Story through the Meeker Mustang Makeover, and her family ultimately adopted him.

At AWHC, we’re proud to work alongside passionate advocates like Kristie and Layla, who show that every action, big or small, can make a difference for America’s wild horses.

There are so many ways you can join this important mission:

Volunteer: Whether it’s participating in events or advocating for humane management practices, your involvement directly impacts the future of wild horses.

Donate: The most powerful way to make a lasting difference is by donating. Your gift supports AWHC’s vital work to protect wild horses and ensure they remain wild and free.

DONATE

Together, we can build a future where wild horses continue to roam freely as a living symbol of freedom and resilience.

Thank you for standing with us.

Warmly,

Team AWHC

Chilly Pepper – Melody update & the heartbreaking and tragic loss of one of our own

, , , 0

The following is from Chilly Pepper – Miracle Mustang:

Hi,

My heart is breaking into a million pieces. Not only did I find out we lost one of our Chilly Pepper Family yesterday, we also had to say goodbye to Melody,

Melody was no longer even trying to help stand up. She was done, and made it very clear. She was pretty comfortable while she was down, moving around and eating and drinking and hanging out with her new friend Bunbun.

However, there was some type of damage done in her back end, and it was making it impossible for her to even want to try and get up. Sadly, Doc let me know it was time, and as much as we all wanted a miracle, it was the only thing to do which would honor and respect what was best for her.

I didn’t post yesterday, because I was reeling from the shock of losing Lisa. Lisa has been a long time, and very much loved friend. She was the kind of friend that no matter how often or not we saw each other or talked, it was like a moment hadn’t passed. She was so very loved by everyone who knew her. Lisa was ejected in an accident, from a car that rolled and died from her injuries.

Lisa was a huge part of Chilly Pepper from way back in the beginning. Just 2 years ago she helped with our 20 starvation cases, and also adopted one of them. She touched so many lives and did so much with us when we were on different rescues. Jennifer, my “adopted daughter”, and Lisa and I had so many different rescue adventures. Her loss is devastating, and I am having trouble processing this. It is always horrifying to hear about a fatal accident, but when they are yours, it stops your breath and sends you to your knees.

All I could see was Lisa waiting for Melody. She was a huge part of so many rescues.

I am sorry it took long to update, but I just can’t even breathe.

Anyone who wants to help is much appreciated.

Chilly Pepper – MELODY was hospitalized yesterday and she needs funds for care.

, , , , 0

The following is from Chilly Pepper – Miracle Mustang:

 

Melody was down when we arrived to pick up the kids. She had been down through the night, and by the time the tractor arrived to pick her up, it was almost noon.
The more times a horse goes down, and the longer each time, the more damage is caused, and can lead to death. She obviously was in very critical condition prior to us even rescuing her, and had marks/injuries on her underside from being lifted improperly with straps.
She was transported into her stall at the vet on the glide shown. She sat up like a princess and just rode on in while all of the rest of us puffed and huffed and pulled with all our might.
She is in critical condition, but her blood work showed a very good chance of her surviving and Doc said she was worth fighting for, as she was obviously fighting to be here.
I had a choice of euthanasia, or committing to the costs of giving her a chance. It was $1500 in the door, as this type of care is extremely expensive and time consuming. These Docs are beyond amazing. She said it would be anywhere from $1500 to $3500.
As of today, she is still in the ICU. She is moving around more, but doing worse as far as standing.
I will keep you posted, but as of right this minute, she needs massive prayers and we need the funds to try to save her. We need a miracle, but I could not just give up on her, as she has been failed by people for who knows how long. These last 2 days have been the best she has had in a long time. She and Bunbun, the clinic bunny, have formed a friendship. She is being spoiled and loved on and if we do lose her, she will have 2 of her best days ever.
We never even raised nearly enough to pay for the haul, and I am sorry but when my leg is too fragile, I simply have to hire help. We HAVE to cover her vet bill, and I am praying we do not have to pay for her to be buried if we can’t save her. This has been one of the hardest rescues, and it has been devastating emotionally. The other kids are home safe and I will update later.
Anyone who wants to help is much appreciated.

A Troubling Start to the 2025 Observation Season

Last week, the United States Forest Service (USFS) suddenly restarted the Devil’s Garden wild horse roundup. The restart came with little-to-no notice and troubling restrictions: the USFS limited public observation to just two days and capped attendance at four individuals. AWHC is on alert to ensure this does not signal a change in the public’s already diminished right to view and document wild horse roundups. Read more about this shift and how AWHC took action.

Chilly Pepper – It is the final leg of their journey. Let’s bring the 5 horses home today.

, , , 0

The following is from Chilly Pepper – Miracle Mustang:

The final leg of their journey….. Sadly I need unexpected help,

I have to apologize. I was planning on doing the last leg of the haul myself. The horses have started their quarantine and have had a few days to settle and get stronger and feel better. However, it is time to get them home now. They need to be settled into their homes and have their little barns and continue their quarantine and start their healing.

However, my leg is simply not up to me doing the haul myself. With quarantine, board and the last stretch of the haul, Chilly Pepper needs around $1540. It would have been so nice to haul myself, but it simply is not a good time leg wise. I won’t take a chance on the safety of our precious kids. It is humiliating, but it is what it is. I will still be able to haul sometimes, but it is not always possible. I love to do it as it saves much needed funds.

I hope y’all will understand and help me with this last leg of the journey. They need to stop and rest for a few, but it is time to get them now. Weather is coming in and we have a narrow window to get them home.

Anyone who wants to help is much appreciated.

$120K roundup vs. $30 vaccine

, , , , 0

The following is from the American Wild Horse Campaign:

Porcine Zona Pellucida.

Better known as the PZP vaccine, this fertility control tool is a safe, effective, and humane solution for managing wild horse herds. Unlike cruel and costly helicopter roundups carried out by federal agencies, PZP allows wild horses to remain free on the range. Best of all, a single dose costs just $30.

Will you help us celebrate the 30th of January with a gift of $30 to cover the cost of protecting one wild mare and her family from becoming the target of another cruel, costly government roundup operation?

DONATE $30 ON JANUARY 30

Meet Empress, a wild mare from Nevada’s Virginia Range who has greatly benefited from American Wild Horse Conservation’s (AWHC) groundbreaking PZP program. Between 2014 and 2019, she has had five beautiful foals, contributing to the genetic health of her herd. Not only has our PZP program kept her free, but it has also kept her healthy. With a break from pregnancy, she is able to live out her golden years, thriving in the wild where she belongs.

Will you help us protect mares like Empress? Donate $30 now to help us deliver sustainable, humane solutions to our iconic wild herds.


Empress, a Virginia Range wild mare.

Despite PZP’s proven success, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is failing to use this humane management strategy at scale. One blatant example is Nevada’s Fish Creek roundup, which ended with nearly 200 horses captured earlier this month. This cruel, costly helicopter roundup could have been prevented.


Photo of Fish Springs HMA roundup taken by an AWHC observer.

Five years ago, AWHC submitted a formal proposal to launch a humane PZP fertility control program in the Fish Creek Herd Managment Area (HMA). The proposal underwent extensive review, but the BLM withheld final approval without explanation.

Despite this, we’re continuing to expand groundbreaking fertility control programs in other areas, proving the safety and efficacy of PZP. Since 2019, our groundbreaking fertility control program in northern Nevada has seen a 67% decline in foal births, stabilizing this population in areas where development is encroaching on their habitat.

The PZP vaccine keeps mares wild and free on the range for a mere lifetime cost of just over $3,500 — pennies on the dollar when you look at the staggering $48,000 it costs to keep just one horse in government holding for life.

By donating $30 today, you can help cover the cost of one PZP dose, directly contributing to the long-term solution for keeping wild mares like Empress safe, free, and wild. This January 30, will you help us make a difference for America’s wild horses by supporting a humane, lasting solution?

DONATE $30 ON JANUARY 30

Thank you for standing with us in defense of these iconic animals.

Sincerely,

Team AWHC

Thank you for your incredible support in our mission to protect America’s wild horses and burros. Whether you took action this month or generously gave to support our cause, you have fueled our fight to stop the cruel, costly helicopter roundups that threaten these magnificent creatures.

With your help, we are amplifying our voice in Congress, strengthening advocacy efforts state by state, and pushing for science-forward, humane fertility control alternatives.

We couldn’t do this critical work without champions like you. Every dollar you contribute and every action you take brings us one step closer to ending the federal government’s outdated, destructive herd management program and ensuring American wild horses and burros roam free as nature intended.

Please know that wild horses have a brighter future because of you.

I will personally continue to keep you updated on the progress your generosity makes possible. Thank you for being part of this movement.

With gratitude,

Chilly Pepper – Can we save1 MORE HORSE and make it 5 on the Freedom Train?

, , , 0

The following is from Chilly Pepper – Miracle Mustang:

UPDATE!!!!

It’s beyond “go time”. I paid bail for all 4 horses, Athena, Feather, Sampson and Angel, even though we are shy $795 for the last two. I did receive another $50 towards them, so we are only short $745.

THEN – Another 911 call. MELODY – broken, sad, starving; an emaciated mess. Yet there is still a tiny bit of hope in her eyes.

I COULDN’T BELIEVE IT when I got the call. Of course I had to step up, as I had enough room for 1 more on the trailer. What started out as a logistical nightmare with the high cost of transporting Feather has turned into one of the most stressful, successful & unusual rescues. Thanks to all of you and your willingness to help save these lives, 5 horses avoided the trailer of death, and will be heading home.

WE NEED $1395 to turn this from a 1 horse rescue to a 5 horse rescue. and that covers the costs of getting the horses through the 1st leg of their journey and starting their TLC.

I am exhausted, way too much ice, and there is always so much stress when trying to figure out these types of saves. However, we couldn’t ignore these horses and Melody is in the worst condition by far. PLEASE help us “git ‘er done” and have a chance for the life they deserve.

Chilly Pepper – Feather has transport – We Can Save These 2 and they ride for free!!!

The following is from Chilly Pepper – Miracle Mustang:

Update on Feather’s rescue.

Great News! Y’all came through and Feather has transport for the first leg of her journey. Even better – the hauler offered to haul 2 more rescues for the price of Feather’s haul.

Meet Tulip. The information I was given is she was a bucking pony. This means she was trained to buck, which makes her pretty non desirable for a child’s pony. She seems thin, but is said to be very heavy in foal. Look at that beautiful little face. Will you help me save her?

Hauling is one of the most expensive parts of rescuing these precious souls. Now instead of Feather’s hauling fee covering one rescue, the same dollar amount is covering 4 lives. Feather, Tulip and her unborn baby and Athena.

Athena needs some attention asap. I believe she is a hinny? Her knee appears to be very swollen, and her hoof is extremely messed up and that is most likely from the way she protects her knee when she walks.

I was told these two were on the 48 HOUR LIST. That means they have less than that now to be saved. Let’s make the most of this beautiful gift from the hauler. Let’s save 4 lives instead of 1, for the same hauling fee.

Clock is ticking on that 48 hours. Please help us save all 4!

Chilly Pepper – 911 -3 year old baby. Abused, Starved, with halter embedded, heading to Slaughter!

, , , 0

The following is from Chilly Pepper – Miracle Mustang:

Time is of the essence, and we need to raise at least $3500 to pay her bail, get her home to Chilly Pepper and start providing the emergency care she needs. I have received so many pleas to help this mare that I had to step up on faith. We are running on fumes, as always. There are so many emergencies right now, but I truly believe we are supposed to save this baby.
She needs out of TX asap, and sadly no one has stepped up for her. Therefore, it’s up to you. Will you help me save her? The $3500 will initially cover her bail and transport and hopefully some of her desperately needed critical care.
Look in those eyes and you can see the betrayal, pain, and lack of hope. They definitely send a clear message of how ugly and painful her life has been. You can also see where the halter dug in, and one of the multiple spots where her halter grew and was embedded into her skin. She needs us yesterday!
PLEASE help us help Feather. We need to be her Mustang Miracle!

DOGE’s Chance to Reform the BLM

, , , , 0

The following is from the American Wild Horse Campaign:

As a new administration is coming into power, so is the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). This new government department, led by Vivek Ramaswamy and Elon Musk, has made a commitment to improving government efficiency and fiscal responsibility and the Wild Horse and Burro Program is a prime candidate for reform.

TAKE ACTION

Why Reform Is Needed:

  • Outdated and Costly Practices: The BLM continues to rely on traumatic helicopter roundups, confining tens of thousands of wild horses in costly holding facilities. This approach ignores repeated Congressional directives and recommendations from the National Academy of Sciences, which criticized roundups as “expensive and unproductive.”
  • Skyrocketing Costs: The BLM’s Wild Horse and Burro Program spent $158 million in 2023 alone, with costs projected to reach $360 million annually. This spending prioritizes ineffective methods over proven, humane fertility control strategies that save taxpayers millions.
  • Humane Solutions Work: On Nevada’s Virginia Range, American Wild Horse Conservation (AWHC) has demonstrated that fertility control programs are not only effective but also financially sound, costing a fraction of the price of roundups and confinement.
TAKE ACTION

Both Musk and Ramaswamy’s commitment to fiscal responsibility, along with Ramaswamy’s concern about animal cruelty, aligns perfectly with the urgent need to overhaul the BLM’s current approach.

This is a rare chance to demand a better way forward — one that respects science, saves taxpayer dollars, and ensures humane treatment of federally protected wild horses.

Take action now and call on DOGE to reform the BLM’s Wild Horse and Burro Program and prioritize humane, science-based management solutions over the current cruel and costly approach. 

Best,

American Wild Horse Conservation

As we step into the new year, we are reminded of the resilience of both our wild horses and the communities who stand by them. In this edition of e-news, we’re sharing critical resources for those impacted by the Los Angeles fires, updates from the field on recent roundups, and highlights from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Advisory Board meeting where AWHC advocated for humane management. Plus, dive into an in-depth exploration of wild horses’ legacy in North America.

Thank you for standing with us in our mission to protect these iconic animals.

Los Angeles Fire Victim Resources 

Our hearts go out to all the people and animals impacted by the devastating fires in Los Angeles, including members of our cherished AWHC community—supporters, ambassadors, volunteers, and their families. To everyone affected, we stand with you during this incredibly difficult time and are here to offer support however we can. We are sharing resources to help those in need.

Roundup Updates

The Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM) Fiscal Year 2025 roundups have begun. The Challis Herd Management Area (HMA) bait trap roundup is underway with the goal of capturing 16 wild horses. In Nevada, the Fish Creek HMA helicopter roundup began on January 6, 2025, and ended on January 9. Over the course of four days, 194 animals were removed from their home. AWHC was on the ground documenting this operation.

READ OUR REPORT

AWHC at the Bureau of Land Management Advisory Board Meeting 

The BLM Advisory Board held a meeting in Sacramento, California, on January 7–9, 2025. During this meeting, team AWHC spoke in person and virtually about the importance of humane in-the-wild management of the West’s herds, the need for transparency during helicopter roundups, the pitfalls of the Adoption Incentive Program, and the critical role wild burros play in their ecosystems. The Board released its recommendations urging the BLM and United States Forest Service to expand fertility control programs across all federal wild horse herds.

Chilly Pepper – Go Time for Lilah? Home safe and ready to fix the barns.

, , , 0

The following is from Chilly Pepper – Miracle Mustang:

Happy New Year!

PLEASE NOTE – IF you donate through Zelle – PLEASE send me an email or a text with your address so I can send your donation receipt.

I was stuck in CA for 10 days when the truck broke down over the holidays, but am now home safe and sound. That in itself was another unexpected expense, but as always, God kept me safe. I was able to stay in the trailer I was pulling at a campground, so that was half the cost of getting a hotel. The truck is fixed and ready for the next rescue. I was also able to pick up some wonderful donations for the rescue while I was there,

Lilah is still VERY thin, although she is slowly gaining her much needed weight. Her unborn baby is growing like crazy, which is often the case with these skinny Mama’s. They put their little one first, so I definitely need to get her some more groceries.

The barns that blew over are completely down, as well as some of the fencing. I still can’t believe the wind doesn’t just go through the panels with their huge gaps, but it doesn’t. It flings them around like toothpicks. At this point I am still hiring help to “catch up”, from the last folks that were here. I need to get a lot of cleaning done, as well as rebuilding etc.

I am so grateful we were able to save Grandma – aka Star. She is gaining weight nicely and has a wonderful home offer.

Wendy actually came over to the near side of the property. Normally she has stayed as far away from any people activity as she can be in the 9 acre pasture. But yesterday she was front and center. This is a miracle for this beautiful girl. She is healing! Thank you for saving her!

Its time to order hay again, and PTL, the vet bills are both down to zero for the first time ever!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

I am hoping to get enough funds raised to rebuild 2 barns, purchase some hay, stock up the nursery with supplies for orphans and make sure we have milk on hand for any orphans in need. I have been asked to be ready for the babies, so that is one of our most urgent needs, with the exception of hay and the special feed for the pregnant Mamas. It is also time to restock the meds that we always need to have on hand. Sadly the price of the meds, like everything else, has gone up dramatically.

If you like “shopping”, we need Paper towels, Baby Wipes, Gloves, Vaseline, Foal Lac Powder, and the list goes on. I know lots of folks would rather shop for what they want, so here is our list from Amazon – https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/FEV9E2B7MPEA?ref_=wl_share

These are the standard items, (minus the meds we need) that we have to stock up on every single year. If you would like to help with any of these items, it would be very much appreciated.

I am so excited that both of the Vets are completely paid off as of this minute. THANK YOU for making that happen. We still have a beautiful crypt orchid stallion who will eventually need major surgery, but for now Doc wants to wait until it is warmer and I am fine with that. So for now I am enjoying having a zero balance for the first time ever??

I hope y’all are looking forward to saving more lives in 2025. I sure am, and although there is so much work ahead to get ready, I wake up every day filled with the excitement of knowing that together, we will “git ‘er done” again!

I APPRECIATE EVERYTHING Y’ALL DO FOR THE RESCUE AND THESE HORSES! THANK YOU AND HAVE A BEAUTIFUL 2025!!

Chilly Pepper – Fierce winds destroy 2 barns & the truck gets a mind of her own. Help please!

, , , 0

The following is from Chilly Pepper – Miracle Mustang:

STAR IS SAFE, THANK YOU!

Never a dull moment, and some unexpected help needed.

While the winds were screaming in Golconda, tearing down barns and throwing panel fences in the air, the truck decided it did not need me to tell it how fast to go. It is called a “Run Away Diesel”, and is where you cannot control the accelerator, nor can you stop with your brakes, or turn off the motor.

However, I am blessed beyond belief. I was heading down the highway and couldn’t slow down. It was like the breaks weren’t even there, except for the fact they were screaming hot. Luckily it only lasted a few minutes, and then the really big, really bright sensor light came on.

I was able to pull to safety. There are some pretty sketchy videos of this happening on youtube. The engine revs as high as it can, and you cannot stop it. The trucks start to jerk back and forth and the engines can blow up. I am attaching a video link for those that are curious. If you watch it, you can see the driver’s head snapping back and forth. It is a very scary thing and folks can get badly hurt if a piston comes through the fly wall. Anyway, God had me as always. He gave me a very clear and scary message to get it fixed. Most of the times when this happens, there is no “coming out of it”. You rarely get a warning. The truck in the video is built, but it shows what will happen. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/5CBKDP6BqYU

The truck is in the shop as of this morning. Yayyy. I am praying it is not a huge expense, but right now any extra expense is definitely not convenient. I am trying to wrap up the last 3 accounts we need to pay in 2025. We are down to $1,350 at the vet in Winnemucca, and we still owe $1,200 to Doc in Goldendale. Both of them want this paid off prior to 2025, so I only have today and tomorrow. I have been making payments on those panels that came with the donated barn, but sadly still owe $800.

I will most likely need the brakes done, as they got extremely hot. I am praying not, but most likely I will have to get them done sooner than later, and that will be another big bite out of the budget.

If you would like to help us close 2024 all caught up and ready for the next rescue, we really appreciate it.

OLIVIA

Olivia is a 2010 Thoroughbred mare that came to AAE in October. She had some health issues that weren’t resolving, and she wasn’t getting the care she needed. Olivia seemed to be experiencing a uterine or urinary tract infection. Olivia was facing euthanasia. This sweet girl needed a chance to get well.

Earlier in her life, she was a racehorse, but her racing history wasn’t too impressive earnings-wise. She ran 22 races from 2015 to 2017, with only one win, and she won $17,540 during her career.

Olivia’s had ultrasounds, palpations, scopes, and uterine and bladder lavages, and she’s still trying to resolve her issue. Initially, it seemed this sweet mare had a chronic uterine infection. She was treated with a long course of antibiotics that seemed to resolve the issue, but only briefly before signs of infection returned. She’s had a vaginal discharge for many months, and she seemed to be incontinent, passing frequent squirts of urine (or icky mucous, pus) and not urinating normally.

Further diagnostics located a large bladder stone. Olivia had a procedure done to removed the stone; it was baseball to softball-sized and had to be broken up for removal. The photo below is just a small piece of the stone. Poor mare! After removal, she’s had a couple of follow-up lavages to help clear bladder and uterus of infection, sediment, and anything else that shouldn’t be there.

Since arrival, Olivia also had her basic health care updated: dental and hoof care, vaccines, and deworming. (She already had a microchip).

er last visit was a bit concerning. Her scope showed a dilated ureter and her bloodwork indicated her kidney values increased again, after coming down previously.

Olivia is an incredibly sweet, sweet mare. Please send some healng energies to help her recover!
