Gypsy before and after

EmptyNest · 11-13-2007, 08:24 AM

Here is Gypsy, an APHA mare I rescued along with 4 others from a very nice lady who seemed to have no idea she was starving her horses.

Here she is today

She's 10 now and I have kept her along with one other mare. Two of the other mares were sold to a neighbor who trail rides. I was unable to keep the last one from bucking, and I'm too old to get bucked off much, so he ended up at the sale barn. The lady who bought him was looking for a challenge.

Wow, she looks great (IMO)!! You have done alot - can I ask, when did you get her? What exactly did you do? I'm amazed - keep up the good work :-)

Just good food, regular worming, and before this pix, a bath

I bought her in March, 2005. The second pix was in May of 06 I think.
