You may remember seeing this horse on WCTV and FOX News, looking near death, barely able to stand, with a tangled mane.  She was featured as an example of a horse (one of 28 and just about the worst of them) found starving in Marianna – and yes! They had an owner on the property with them!  
As you can see, this 11-year-old Arabian mare was severely mal-nourished and weak, with an injured shoulder.  After two months of foster care, she has put on weight, had her hooves trimmed, been wormed and vaccinated, as well as treated for rain rot and sprayed for flies.  Her injury has been evaluated as an old one that was left untreated, so she will always limp a bit and can never be ridden.  In all other regards, however, she is a normal and friendly girl!

NONE of the expenses to rehabilitate this horse have been  reimbursed by the Jackson Country Sheriff’s Office, that seized her, or owner charged with animal cruelty & neglect.  These total about $800.00 so far, plus veterinarian bills of $200-$300 are anticipated.  Monthly rehabilitation runs about $100.00.    

This sweet, gentle, appreciative girl, now named “GRIZABELLA,” needs a loving home as a pasture “buddy” who will gladly help with keeping your grass cut and other horses company!  

Please help us to continue help her by donating to her expenses and care.  Considering adopting her, too! ($500.00 fee to an approved home).

Any donation would be appreciated.

Please help BDR to heal and find a loving home for this pet!
