Well, it has been exactly two weeks since the Dreamchaser Horses arrived at Shiloh.
All five of the horses have settled in and made great changes in their attitudes. They are no longer depressed, but have begun to blossom and enjoy their surroundings and interaction with the volunteers. They are interested now in what is going on around them. It really makes us feel good to see them come into their own. Levi is scheduled to be gelded on March 10th, which will really improve his quality of life at the rescue and allow him more contact with other horses.
All five have gained weight- yes, it is possible in just two short weeks. The horses have been on free feed good quality grass mix hay, Alfalfa/Grass hay pellets, and we are just now starting small quantities of Equine Senior.
