TOMORROW IS THE DAY! As we get ready for our biggest fundraiser of the year we want to show you what your donations go to at .grace.rescue
I’d be remiss if I didn’t talk about Mocha’s story. Mocha was a 3 year old filly who found herself in a kill pen in TX unable to properly walk. It was truly gut wrenching to see this scared baby try to move around.
Another long rehab, 2 years actually, and a lot of patience and love later..
Mocha came to .grace.rescue in April of 2021. She found herself in the slaught3r pipeline at just 3 years old with locking stifles. Young horses can get locking stifles if their muscles have not fully developed with their growth. Mocha came to us severely underweight (which poor nutrition attributes to locking stifles), she also had a respiratory infection and conjunctivitis in her eye. She had been handled before but was unsure of people and clearly had trauma around training.
We did a very slow rehab with her to heal her properly and give her the best shot at making a full recovery. Then an amazing family stepped in and offered to foster Mocha and train her. Brian and Jack knew Mocha needed time and an understanding heart to help chip away at the walls she had built. They spent countless hours through the ups and downs, highs and lows building this girl back to the gorgeous, confident horse she is today.
Brian and Jack fell in love with Mocha bean and ended up adopting her! She now lives her best life with her horse brother Jesse who adores her đź–¤
Real rescue is hard work and takes a lot of time, effort and money to be successful. Tomorrow is our fundraiser and with your help we can continue to help horses like Mocha live the life they deserve!
