UPDATE: 11/1/11
Miracle is doing great in her foster home and this is a
recent picture of her she has grown up to be a beautiful
reddish roan color with very blonde mane and tail.
UPDATE:
 Remember
Miracle, the orphan foal that was led out of the forest
away from her deceased mother? She is doing great! Here
she is all ready for Christmas.
Baby Miracle is still in her foster home and they LOVE
her!
UPDATE:
Up Date
3 vet visits so far, but she has the will to make it and
I believe she will.
Baby is getting a
little stronger, she has had a 1/2 selium shot which is
helping. She will get another one in 2 1/2 weeks which
will help a lot.
Miracle update -
Sandy said she is doing much better and actually trotted
about 15 feet today! Her
...selenium
levels were so incredibly low the vets were surprised
she was still on her feet.
She is receiving selenium
shots to get her to a normal level. How this
little girl survived on her own standing watch over her
dead mother in the forest, alone, for about a week is
mind boggling. She is truly a survivor :)
Picture of my little wet miracle baby girl, taken
today. she had a stomach ache so had to give her
medicine this morning, I am thinking it might just have
been the very cold morning today. she seems better
now.
Our Newest Rescue Baby
Miracle
 We
rescued a new orphan baby filly yesterday. She was just
a tiny thing.
I was
asked to take the little tiny one found by some folks in
Lakeview. She was spotted standing in the woods next to
her moms dead body.
Her
mom
had been eaten by predators. We are not sure what she
died of but we know it wasn't good.
Not a
Mustang, but just something a rancher or farmer tossed
out in the mountains. Sadly, this is happening a lot in
that area. There are dozens of domestic horses out
there.
I went out
and got the little one. She is not at all friendly yet
has a BIG attitude for such a small thing. The vet tech
stopped by today and said she is maybe 8 to 10 weeks
old.
Pictures of Baby Miracle being led out of the woods
 
I
think we are going to try to put her on a nurse mare. A
friend of mine has one in Coburg, Oregon. Maybe it will
work. Thank goodness for the generosity of friends. We
need so much help with this. Please consider clicking
the donate button to the right to help us.
The
little one, we are calling Miracle,
as it
was a miracle that she was not eaten by any predators is
only about 3 feet tall and looks to be a pony or a pony
cross. She's cuter then heck.
 Miracle was alone in the woods for at least 3 weeks that
we know of from first time of being spotted until Sunday
when we rescued
her.
Baby Miracle has had
a hard couple days; 2 emergency vet visits and
definitely NOT out of the woods. She coliced all day on
Thursday and couldn't poop. Now Miracle is pooping, but
almost liquid.
Her stomach is so
messed up from not eating and drinking up in the woods.
It has taken it's toll on her. We had blood work done.
It came back real strange.
We are doing this one
day at a time right now. The vet guessed her to be
between 8 and 12 weeks old. She is a pony baby as far
as we can tell. A tough little girl but only time will
tell if she will pull through or not. Donations
are desperately needed.
