Episode 90
Last week two Belgian Draft horse mares were on the "direct ship" list at Bowie Texas Livestock. We did an emergency fundraiser for their bail and transport and because of all of your support and generosity we were able to save both of the horses! Both mares were in rough shape and needed medical attention as soon as possible.
This video is an update on how they are doing after we picked them up from the livestock yard, their names revealed, their first week on the farm and how they are doing after seeing Dr. Waggoner at Mobile Veterinary Practice.
Ava, another rescued Belgian Draft horse also went to the vet. Ava was rescued a few months ago before my accident. Both Ava and one of the new girls are going to need surgery to remove the tumors they have in their eyes.
We would like to send a huge shout out to Zoetis and Mobile Veterinary Practice for supporting our herd with donated vaccines for all the horses and donkeys. We truly appreciate your support!

As mentioned in this video we are doing another fundraiser for the medical bills for all three horses. If you can help support this fundraiser we would greatly appreciate your continued support!
Fundraiser for medical can be found at www.bighooffoundation.org
As a growing horse rescue group, we rely on monetary donations to keep the organization moving forward. The Big Hoof Foundation will always be transparent with how your donations are used. 100% of the money we raise goes directly to the rescued horses' bail fees, transport, feed, hay, medical bills, medications, alternative medical treatments, supplements, surgeries, etc. Every dollar raised is for the horses!
Our ability to help these horses is only because of the generous donations from our subscribers and followers! Please consider making a tax deductible donation to the Big Hoof Foundation to help us save more of these precious lives from shipping to slaughter and provide them with the care they deserve. Thank you everyone for your continued support in saving these gentle giants! We could not be saving these lives without you!
