More Comparisons

With the Fairmont hearing coming up soon, I wanted to show you some more comparisons of what the horses looked like when they were seized and what they look like now.  You’ve seen the big horses, so I thought we’d concentrate on the ponies and minis today.  The first picture in each pair was taken on 4/13, the second picture of the pair was taken 5/25.

 

Note the backbone and skinny butt on Peppermint. 

 

She’s fatter now than she was right before having Tootsie.  No wonder I didn’t see it coming!

 

Blondie was one of the healthier minis.  She wasn’t that thin and her coat wasn’t nearly as bad as some of the others.

 

But she still looks a heck of a lot better now.  What a pretty girl!

 

We all know what poor Shortcake looked like six weeks ago.  Shaggy, so thin her back and hip bones jutted out, and an overall poor appearance.

 

 

Her coat is now a gorgeous strawberry color and she’s got a nice layer of fat and muscle on her top line.  She’s also fatter after popping out baby Huey than she was when she was seized. 

 

Poor Frankie.  She was so misunderstood.  We thought she might be a Cremello because she appeared to be white with slightly darker points and blue eyes.

 

So much for Cremello.  Where’d those spots come from?  At least we got the blue eyes right!

 

 

Michelle is coming out later today to help me bathe some of the little misfits that won’t shed out.  I’ll get pictures of the others after we’re done.  Should be fun!
