Great job! That is absolutely amazing! I didn't think it was the same horse either. In the first pictures she almost looks like a champaign color and then BAM gorgeous dapple gray!

yea she was only 3 years old! who could do that to a horse? when i got her she had hair 4 inches long that was matted, the pic is after i brushed most of it out, her tail was one solid matt, her feet looked like they had never been done, she was the biggest sweetheart you could imagine, and guess what kind of horse she was??????? she was an andalusian quarter cross, these people paid $1,000 to breed their mare to this gorgeous andalusian and then starved the poor baby, i just dont get people sometimes.

People sicken me....She is absolutely beautiful now though! Good job with her! Why in the world did they let her go like that? Did they tell you any reason at all? Not that it matters really...but still.

Kudos to you. Most people would not want to tackle something that pitiful, and look what you have accomplished with her. A big fat YAY for you!

It's astounding that with her previous condition and appearance, a lot of people would have just sent her to auction and I think we all would have known the outcome.

It's wonderful you gave her a chance and she's turned into an amazing, beautiful horse. Keep up the good work. She doesn't look like the same horse and I'm sure she doesn't feel like it either.

Thanks to you , you saved her life and gave her a chance.and to think people did that to her, they should go without the basics of life.
