She has been wonderful and sweet since she arrived and many children have enjoyed riding her. Sadly she went completely blind 3 months ago and one eye became very painful. It required extensive vet visits and medication to try to get the pain under control. Eventually it was decided her eye would have to be removed. She would also need a barn built before winter to keep her safe.
A wonderful woman, Verna, whom I had never met, offered a paint party to raise funds. Last night we had not one but two paint parties! Between the paintings and additional donations we raised almost $400 for Daisy's medical expenses and barn!
Daisy's friends applying "pony paint and sparkles" to get her ready to meet her guests.
A deaf dog and a blind horse...life on a rescue farm.
Her blind but otherwise healthy eye.
She is now pain free after the unhealthy eye was removed.
We change the operating room back into an art studio!
Let the party begin!!
Scout wanted to do her part for Daisy, so she baked cookies to sell....
...thank you to all who contributed! She is very proud that she raised $8.50 to help her pony.
We made new friends and enjoyed a fun afternoon with old ones...all while helping a special pony who deserved better then to die a horrific death at a slaughter house. Thank you!
If you would like to donate to help finish her barn you can send a PayPal payment to murphnmichelle@yahoo.com
