Days End Farm Horse Rescue, Inc

Here's a video of some of our Arabber geldings having fun in the snow. Enjoy!

Fun in the Snow

More snow is scheduled to dump on us tomorrow night through Wednesday. Staff are, once again, going to spend the night at the farm on Tuesday to make sure that the horses are taken care of on Wednesday. If any of you can safely make it to the farm tomorrow (for chores and to prep for this next storm) or especially Wednesday to help with chores and feeding, we'd greatly appreciate your help!

Thank you to all of the volunteers who have made it out since this weekend's snow storm to help around the farm. Your assistance has been a HUGE relief!

We have been prepping for the past couple of days for the upcoming snow storm. Barn Staff will be living at the farm over the weekend to make sure that all of the horses are cared for and everything still gets done in the barn. If you can make it out to help in the barn, it would be appreciated, but of course your safety comes first. Please everyone stay warm and safe, and drive carefully if you are intending to help us at the farm.

Have a wonderful, wintry weekend everybody!!!

The vet came today to reassess how Layla and ZuZu are healing.

Layla's toe crack, which we have been dealing with for a couple of years now, was debrided a few weeks back of all infection and unhealthy tissue. Our job these past few weeks was to keep it packed, wrapped, and clean in order to allow new, healthy hoof tissue to grow back in its place. The vet was very happy with her progress today and we will continue the same treatment for the next few weeks until she is ready for another check-up.

ZuZu's pastern was x-rayed again to check for progress. Unfortunately, the fracture is much worse than we originally thought. He will be on stall rest for at least another 5 months and will most likely end up being only pasture-sound once he is fully healed. Though sad about his prognosis, we are confident that we'll still be able to find him a loving home as a companion.

The next time you stop by the farm, be sure to give Layla and ZuZu lots of kisses!
