Equine Outreach Rescue

Giving Hope to Horses

$31,521

That is the amount Equine Outreach spent on medical bills just last year.

We pride ourselves on providing quality veterinary care to our herd. Meeting their individual needs can be intensive, extensive and expensive due to the age and backgrounds of our precious horses.

Help us build our Medical Fund so we can continue to give hope to the horses in 2023!

Donate on Giving Tuesday

Let’s meet some horses your donations have helped this year.

Blue

Blue, at 26 years of age, had been having chronic foot soreness. We wanted to be sure he is comfortable in his golden years, so a trip to the vet for a full examination and x-rays was in order. And as a result, he received a set of new shoes to allow this. But these are not regular horseshoes, but a pair of gel-soled Therapeutic Soft Ride Boots! These boots cost $250 for a pair, but our Blue is worth it.

Harmony

Beautiful Harmony was discarded by previous owners when she was struck with EPM, a neurological disorder. She would have most likely ended up at a slaughterhouse had we not intervened. With treatment, ongoing care for this condition and a careful watch from our team, Harmony now holds a special place at the rescue, reminding us that everyone is always valuable despite any health or physical challenges.

Casino!

At the beginning of the month, Casino was hospitalized at Bend Equine Veterinary for several compounding health problems including cellulitis, as well as a serious foot condition and diarrhea. Treatment was begun with hopes for enough improvement to allow for a much-needed surgery on her foot. She improved enough each day that surgery was able to be performed on November 10th. Casino is now on her road to recovery but will be on stall rest for an extended period. The cost of her surgery and this extended care at the veterinary hospital, has put a drain on our medical funds. Your donation on Giving Tuesday would help cover these costs.

We are also in need of extra medical supplies for her while she recovers and to keep her comfortable in her stall during this time. Here is a list of things we will need. If you can help by donating, please contact us to arrange drop off. We will appreciate your support in helping our very loved Casino during this period.

Medical Supplies: Vet Wrap, Lots of Elastikon, Brown Gauze, No Bow Standing Wrap Pads, Track Wraps, Silver and Honey Wound Ointment, Bandage Scissors

Stall Supplies: 10 Stall Mats, Shavings, Shavings, Shavings – Lots!
