Gypsy Sponsorship
Meet Gypsy! Gyspy is aged around 8-10 years old. Gypsy was rescued out of Webb, AL. We were contacted by a local horse lover about a horse that was down in a pasture in need of help. We agreed to take her in and she went straight to the local vet hospital where she spent the next 6 weeks. She has club foot in both front feet. At her initial vet intake, she had MAJOR work done on her severely overgrown hooves. This was done slowly over the course of her 6 weeks in the hospital by a vet. She also had several x-rays to watch her rotation closely. Gypsy is recovering well and we will continue to provide her with the best care for her condition. Sadly, she will never fully recover. We do have a special farrier that comes every 4 weeks to work on her feet under the direction of our vet. She also gets bodywork done after every farrier visit. Gypsy is also on a special diet to make sure she doesn't gain too much more weight. Gypsy also has pads that she has to stand on daily and we have boots for her to wear to also give her some cushion on her front feet. Gypsy would only be adopted out to someone that can continue with her care, which is expensive. She is also limited to a small pasture/dry lot since she isn't able to move around like a normal pony. (Don't worry, she has her little friend, Tinkerbell, with her at all times.)
HOW DOES A SPONSORSHIP WORK?
You can choose to donate any amount each month. Our goal is to get her monthly bill of $203.70 covered each month by sponsors. 100% of your donation goes directly to the horses in our care. Our rescue is powered by amazing volunteers!
The sponsorship program is where an individual, business or group makes an annual or monthly gift which provides us with the support that allows us to continue rescuing horses and focus less on fundraising. Your commitment creates a happy ending for the shattered lives we rescue.
Sponsorship is for any business, group or person who wants to help save horses, ponies, donkeys or mules and can financially commit to providing an annual or monthly donation for a rescue’s care. Many of our rescues often require more medical attention than the average horse. Rescues may need months or even years, to return to health and rebuild their trust in humans.
Sponsorships make legendary gifts to give a friend or family member who loves horses. Give a sponsorship as a gift for birthdays, holidays, or special occasions. Sponsoring a rescue is a great way for groups and organizations such as schools, church groups and clubs, to support their community.
