Lotto

Ok, in case you guys don’t read the other posts… read this one!
The new draft coming in is now named LOTTO. Here’s why:

Sale number #539
Total bail $539
FRIDAY’S OHIO PICK 3 NUMBERS:
7/30/2010 MidDay 9,5,3 ($65,795)

WE SHOULD HAVE PLAYED!

Arrival time: 4PM
Minimal poop in the trailer, so we will watch that. Arrived minimally sweaty, stiff from riding and a bit sucked up in the belly. Grazed in hand for a few minutes with no issues. Stalled for monitoring of liquid and waste. Left hind outside heel missing good size chunk. Others seem fine.

Administered 1.5 tubes of Pro-Bio (stood great, I might add). Provided 2 quart scoop of saturated cubes, 3 cups of beet pulp, 1 cup of oil and electrolytes. Urinated- slightly colored, usual amount. Drank 1/2 bucket on intake. Eating with no issues. 100.2 temp (stood unhaltered).

Lotto will be in need of sponsors. He will need A LOT of weight builder, Horseshoer’s Secret supplements and oil. But he has a great temperament, is easy to handle, and willing. He actually went from being scared and backing away when picked him up to being willing to leave his feed to come see me when I enter the stall. He has a lot of potential.

Oscar

This is Oscar. He was pulled from Camelot on 7/7/10 by Maggie Bloom and surrendered to FPF for placement.

Oscar had episodes showing when he arrived at FPF on 7/12/10. We expected it to be Wobbles and were awaiting a vet evaluation/diagnosis on him when he developed a lameness in his hind left leg. We contacted our local vet hospital and took Oscar in for an emergency call.

A metal piece was removed from the frog area, and his episodes were diagnosed as a side affect of tetanus. He was treated at Valley View for this. He is currently back at FPF continuing his treatment with a reset of his hind shoes in 4-6 weeks. He is currently doing well.

Oscar will continue treatment until he is released by the attending vets. We will move him to the adoption page once that happens. Oscar’s sponsor is Maggie Bloom

Shay, once known as #54, was pulled from the Camelot Auction on 5/5/10 with the assistance of Lauren Cevasco.  She is now in quarantine in our NJ foster home with Dianne Valentine.  She is receiving excellent care, has been seen by the vet, and is currently on additives to get her back into tip top shape.  She will spend a minimum of 30 days at Dianne’s farm before being moved for her continued rehabbing at Frog Pond.

Rehabbing Drafts

The drafts located in this area of the site are undergoing a form of rehabbing currently.  It could be for medical issues, weight issues, temperment issues or they need extensive training/socialization before being made available for adoption.  We arent looking to bring in a draft and immediately throw them out into a new home.  We feel it is very important that these issues are handled first before being placed.

Safe, healthy and well socialized drafts are our main priority!
