The Legend Of Spring: Orphan Mustang

Thank you, Arvy!

Yes, she has already brought a glow to our hearts - the report is that she is doing very well, this morning, after her rough day, yesterday - she is in the best of hands!

I am going to visit momentarily. :D

Thanks, Dawn! Her prognosis is excellent! :D

Thank you, Rosemaree … she will be a true beauty, and will live in a wonderful safe place, surrounded by love and affection.

Thanks, Susan … it’s easy enough to describe the events of the day … not at all easy to express the feelings—of knowing that we were guided to be in that certain place, at that difinitive moment! We had actually planned to go somewhere else … one hour either way, we might have missed her altogether. Oh! Providence!

Thank you, Vanessa!

Thanks so much for the encouraging words!

Spring showed little fear of us – so young, she had apparently not yet been instructed on the dangerous nature of humans. From the looks of her injuries, we think she was attacked by a mountain lion …. but that will forever be speculation.

She will have a wonderful home, with a large natrual-terrain enclosure (several acres to run around in), and even a “big sister” of similar heritage to share her horsey childhood with.

Already, she has blessed so many.

Thanks so much, Ann!

Yes! Yes! And yes! .... many more pics to come.
Our destinies are bonded now. ;)

No doubt in my mind, Davo. Thanks!!

My neighbor and I did the round-up on foot.

Little Spring wasn’t terribly hard to capture; she was too weak to run very far, very fast—and I think animals tend to know when someone is trying to help them. After several efforts to lasso her cowboy style, Ray grabbed her by the tail, and I slipped a soft rope around her neck.

My friend is a great “horse person” – a virtual “whisperer” (as they say since the movie); he already has one rescued orphan.

Had we waited for the BLM to act, little miss would have been coyote fodder.

Thank you, Terri!

Thank you, Diane.

She will be a beauty, indeed! :)

Thanks so much, AM .. . Spring is doing great! I may post some new photos, later today. :)

Thank you, Scott!

Thank you, Julie …. the foal was rescued by private individuals that just happened to find her.

The “monitoring agency” (Bureau Of Land Management) now proposes removing all of the wild horses from their 1 million+ acre habitat in eastern Nevada. :`(

Thanks for caring, Polly – Spring is doing great!
Remains to be seen, what will happen to our beloved mustang herds ….

Thanks very much, kimbarose!

Thanks!

Thanks for your support, Louise! Greatly appreciated

It is almost a month, since Spring’s homecoming. She is absolutely thriving. :D
