We’ve had Truffles 🐶 in our care since October 2nd 2022. Truffles came in at the ripe age of 5 years old. She was no longer useful to her breeder and so they decided to give her the boot! 🥾 Truffles came to us, overbred, nipples dangling, her ear torn in half and many other scars. These were fighting injuries that had occurred in her breeding years. She was extremely kennel aggressive and food aggressive. She learned to fight for things that were important to her. Food & attention. This poor girl has been through the wringer. Sadly due to all the abuse she endured it has made Truffles need a very special home which we have not yet found. Fast forward 1 1/2 years later, Truffles eye started becoming weepy and cloudy. We made her a vet appointment. Truffles has developed entropion. A condition where the eyelid folds inwards. This results in the skin and eyelashes rub the eyeball, causing irritation and discomfort. Truffles needs surgery 😓 Without it, it will cause loss of vision. Truffles also has a skin tag on her toe and a small benign growth on her shoulder that we will have removed at the same time. This was not something we expected or planned for, and we do not have the funds to pay for her surgery. 😔 We’re really hoping that we can get some help towards her vet bill. We take in so many medical cases every year that would've otherwise been euthanized.

Wesley horrifically injured his back leg, leaving a large gash so deep his bone was exposed. He was at a boarding facility that could not afford his veterinary care, so they planned to euthanize him. Luckily, Gabby’s Animal Rescue was informed and immediately intervened. Wesley was taken to Lone Oak Large Animal where the veterinarians examined his horrible injury. They were not confident that Wesley would make it through surgery and rehab, much less ever be able to be ridden again. The damage was so severe that it cut all the way to the ligament and bone. There was a potential that the ligament could be severed beyond repair and the bone could die, but Gabby’s Animal Rescue wanted to give him a fighting chance. Wesley made it very evident that he did not want to give up. He is the gentlest horse and revels in the attention he receives, especially from the kids. He is showered with love, attention, and treats. This 10-year-old thoroughbred gelding deserves a chance at a bright future. Wesley’s veterinary expenses are currently around $6,000. This is a high cost, but Gabby’s Animal Rescue will not shy away and know he is worth fighting for. Please consider donating to Wesley to help him receive the medical attention he desperately needs. Update 8/15 It's been 7 months and Wesley's leg is still undergoing treatment. We've made great progress but now Wesley is facing other health complications. We are on the upward end of 10,000 in veterinary expenses, feed & bedding. Please help us in supporting Wesley if you can.
