Sweet Old Peso...

Some very sad news from the rescue today as sweet old gentle Peso was euthanised. He has been doing so well and gained so much weight and spirit since his arrival a few months ago, but his advanced age caught up to him and his time had come. This morning he was not feeling well and we had him rushed into the vet clinic with heavy hearts. They confirmed what we were afraid of, that his time had come and his body was shutting down. He was peacefully euthanized and passed very quickly and quietly...


Rest in peace, old friend. I miss you already.

His condition on the feedlot...

As much as we dread saying good bye to our older residents, we can be happy that they knew love and peace for the last days of their lives. This is some of the most important part of our rescue work, but also some of the saddest.

But, even on sad days, Rescue goes on...

Some happy news as one of the newest arrivals, a Molly Mule, is quickly adopted out to her new home. Mindy has been looking for a Mule for a few months and she found her at Shiloh!

We had Stitch scoped for stomach ulcers in the clinic yesterday. He was not feeling well lately and was losing weight. He does have ulcers and is now being treated with medication. We moved him into the peace and quiet of Mesquite Manor while he is treated...

We moved Sully and Hawkeye into the adjoining Mesquite Manor pen to keep Stitch company.
