3 Legged Horse
i just rescued a Gelding from these people who just left him there to die, he was with another horse but the other horse died because of no care. i couldnt stand seeing that horse just slowly die out in the pasture all lonely & starving, so i got him & now he is gaining weight & VERY happy, but he has a bad leg, we took him to the vet & the vet dosnt no whats wrong & they cant fix it. so he walks around with 3 legs quite well (amasing he will run with 3 legges aslo!!) his hooves need to be trimmed badly but he will not put weight on that leg thats hurt so he cant pick up his other feet cause that means he will only have 2 to balance on, so i need help on how i can get his hooves trimmed??
Answers:Yes, we need more people like you who are willing to do something for horses left to die like this. It is and does happen more often than people know or hear about. Unfortunately for you, I have to side COMPLETELY with LisaM here. I know its not what you want to hear but there are many, many more horses that need rescue that are young and have a chance of a good, happy, healthy life with someone like you. This poor old guy sounds to have seen his better days, it amazing if he is truly that old and still managing on 3 legs, I can't imagine what teeth are in his head . can't be much at that age and horses also start to absorb themselves in the end and you can try and try but they just don't ever go back to what they once were, he's old and crippled... 5 years on 3 legs, I don't think any other leg has much to stand on anymore either.
