Update: 08/03/17: Sadly we had to make the decision last week to euthanize donkey #6. The damage to her front hooves from many years of severe neglect was just too great. Her pain could no longer be controlled and we decided the kindest thing to do would be to release her from her suffering. The remaining 5 donkeys are doing well at this point and we are hopeful about their prognosis!
Cactus Jack is a beautiful bay gelding who was born on 06/16/17. His mother, Cactus Katie, is a pinto mare who came to MHARF during a May 2017 Isanti County humane case. In 2018 Jack was diagnosed with a bone cyst and required arthroscopic surgery. By 2019 he had made a full recovery and has gotten the “all clear” from the vet to continue in his training. We aren’t certain of Jack’s breeding but he most likely has paint,
This beautiful filly was foaled in April of 2017 and was just a week old when she was transferred to MHARF from Last Chance Corral in Ohio. She had to be bottle fed for several weeks and is now learning to eat on her own. Stay tuned for updates on Lucy! (photo credit: Sydney Jordan)
Arlen, who was foaled in April 2017, came to MHARF as a week-old foal from Last Chance Corral in Ohio. Because he was only a week old at intake, he needed to be bottle fed for several months. Arlen has had a lot of handling and is kind and respectful. He is now gelded and is a sweet young horse with a great temperament.
Laylee has been Adopted!
Laylee is a very sweet bay mare who came to MHARF through law enforcement in a May 2017 humane case. She was very thin at intake but has flourished in our rehabilitation program. She was foaled in approximately 2015 and is approximately 14hh. We don’t have a lot of information about Laylee’s breeding but we think it is a mix of Arabian, paint, and welsh pony.
