This is Miss MyLeeka She is a rescue/adoption. Her story is a sad one. She was reported to the Doddrige County Sheriff as a starving horse. After investigating, Mary suspected she had a fractured shoulder and, discovered she had been riden in that condition! She was also about 300 pounds underweight. Leeka was left at a neighboring farm when she started falling down under saddle. This picture shows her about six months into her rehab. A remarkable recovery and the vet is amazed!. Today, she is at about 99% in her recovery and is expected to recover fully! We hope to start riding her again this spring as she's running on all fours! The local kids love grooming her and she is teaching them about love and care so, she still has a great job to do! We want to thank SWAP for allowing us to stall her at CrossedSabers for her first 10 weeks of recovery. |
