She followed me in the barn and went through a normal sized door into a tack
room! We just had her feet trimmed and she fell asleep while the
farrier was working!

groundwork and been ridden some with an experienced English rider. She is the
alpha mare in the pasture Riverdancer is cautious around people at first,
but warms up and is then very sweet. She needs an experienced rider and will do
great with children with some more training.. The little cloudy spot on her left
eye is from an old injury, but it's cosmetic - it doesn't cause her any
difficulty or vision problems.

Description: Gracie was donated to
TBAR and is emaciated. Her body registers a 1 on the Henneke Body Scale - as
low as it gets. She's only 2 years old and has been starved most of her
short life. She has to be given food slowly because she doesn't know that
she will never go without food again. (picture taken at her previous
home)
- Update: April 14, 2008: Gracie has
put on a lot of weight and her winter coat is shedding out in chunks!
It's hard to catch her with her head up, she's eating all the time.
Thanks to your support, Gracie is getting the care and feed she needs to
get back to health!
Update: October 1, 2008: Look at
Gracie now! She's beautiful, happy and healthy and ready for a forever home!

#2 Update from Mocha's Mom:
Mocha is doing
beautifully, she's in a stall with a run and she is
coming up to us on her own now and letting us pet her she still flinches a
little, when we first touch her but she LOVES attention, she likes to lick
your hand, and she loves to have her face right next to yours, we got a
halter on her and she seems much calmer now she didn't even put up a fight
when we put the halter on her. We just slowly introduced her to the halter
and within a couple of days we got it on her. She just stood there while I
cut her mane, she is such a good girl!!!! We're working on leading her
with the lead rope and desensitizing her back half now hopefully soon we
can get ahold of that tail lol!! I
have attached a few pictures so you can see her. Take
Care, Gin'a

| Color:
Red Roan

| Breed:

| Abilities:
She is halter broke, gentle on the ground.
Rosey is rideable; and needs an experienced rider.
|
| ADOPTED
- Thank You! |
Location:
Washington |

Description:
Rosey's
life had taken a dire turn; and she didn't know how much longer she could go
on. She and 3 other horses shared a small pasture in the country that had
long since run out of grass. Water was scarce, and there was no cover from
the winter weather. When the owner did bring some food, Rosey and the 2
other horses let the baby horse eat first. Then
the older boy horse, Chief, let the two girls - Rosey and Duchess
- eat next; but it
showed. He was skin and bones. Thankfully, the authorities seized Rosey and
the other horses; and the court awarded them to True Blue Animal Rescue
where they could be rehabilitated. Rosey
is halter-broke, has fabulous ground manners and is probably
rideable. A beautiful,
10 year old strawberry roan, Rosey is
healthy again and ready for a loving, forever home.
This mare was one of 3 horses seized by the
Burleson County Sheriff's Department and court awarded to TBAR on December
8th, 2006. See
