The following is from Chilly Pepper - Miracle Mustang: We got our new arrivals today. Faith and her baby Gage arrived this morning. It must be something in the water, because Faith also has an injury to her face. I guess things run in three's. It is clear she was bitten in the face. She stinks to high heaven, her face is infected and the tooth on the bottom punctured all the way through. So she got her antibiotics, tetanus and clay right away. She is the biggest sweetheart, is not actually wild, but was apparently a "drop off". She was not helpful when they were bringing in the herds, as she would go in the opposite direction and take the herd with her. Warrior is still ooozing some pus, and was not cooperative today in any way. We finally got through what he and I needed to do, but it was definitely not one of his "good days". We did end on a good note with lots of loving. Please keep all of them in your prayers. We did get the matching funds, so we were able to pay for some hay in WA and NV, and get these horses' bail paid and transported to Chilly Pepper. Faith obviously will need some serious TLC and good groceries. Thank you for continuing to support this much needed work. I can't do it without you!!! THANK YOU to everyone who keeps the rescue going and makes it possible to keep saving lives. YOU ROCK!!!

The following is from Chilly Pepper - Miracle Mustang: ANOTHER 911 call for a Wild Mustang Mare and her Baby. Another Miracle for Chilly Pepper! One of our amazing donors offered to match up to $1000. She will match every donation beginning this morning (now), lol. UP TO $1000 SO, any check dated today or later, and any funds donated now and going forward wil be matched! Things are so tight, and we are supposed to be getting Mama and Baby in the next few days, so this is truly a miracle. THANK YOU to everyone who keeps the rescue going and makes it possible to keep saving lives. YOU ROCK!!! I hesitated to post another fundraiser, as we are still needing more help with Warrior and his vet bills, groceries, etc. Stil, I'm reaching out in Faith. WILL YOU HELP SAVE MAMA AND HER BABY? I have not seen Mama and Baby, or any photos. All I know is that they need you to help me get them safely to Chilly Pepper. The pix here are the two that came in with the (20), with the starvation case. Their adopter decided she no longer wanted them. So now, right before winter, we need to raise funds for them as well, and hopefully find them some really great homes. I am hoping we can raise enough funds to cover the rest of Warrior's vet bills, make a payment on the WA one, AND be able to say YES, to the horses I was called for today. On Warrior, he now has a girlfriend. Misty was the other "head injury" we just had. They are inseparable, and I think it will help Warrior with his healing. Here is a link to a video if you would like to see what we do every ...

The following is from Chilly Pepper - Miracle Mustang: Warrior update. Some of the pictures are graphic. What we are dealing with is beyond horrific. However, this young horse acts like he is all that, never mopes around, and is enjoying hanging out with his friends. It is still a life-threatening injury. You can clearly see the improvement. I apologize if it upsets anyone. Believe me it's not easy treating him every day. I am just sharing how serious his injuries are. We are back in WA, and Doc came out to see him. I love our vets, and they are, and have been since day one, on the exact same page about his treatment. Warrior is healing wonderfully on the outside. He is also still suffering from a great deal of trauma inside. I pulled out the piece of bone shown above a day or two ago. The funds raised in the gofundme and other donations were amazing, but they are long spent, and it didn't begin to cover his medical. They basically covered getting him to NV, me paying the folks who ran the rescue in WA while I was in NV, and to get us home safely to WA. We barely touched the vet bills, and he already has another one up here. The GOOD NEWS is that Doc was pretty ecstatic about the way his head looks,especially considering the way it looked in the beginning. He has been on constant medication, and the stuff he is on now is about $300 a bottle, and we are on the 2nd one already. He is also on another antibiotic, probiotics, good feed etc. He still cannot eat grain, and we believe it is because of an injury on the side of his jaw, so I soak them 1st, and then ...

The following is from Chilly Pepper - Miracle Mustang: Update. Yesterday, Doc came out again. And YET AGAIN! Yesterday, we finally got an x-ray. Doc was also able to yank out some pieces of bone that were dying and coming to the surface. It didn't hurt Warrior, but it did my heart, just a bit. The good news is that is skull was not caved in. Some of the bad news is that he has a pocket of pus above his eye, just in front of his brain. Could that be the reason he went all goofy on me? Pressure on the brain can easily cause that. For those of you that don't know, I had a situation where he kind of had me pinned in a corner. I was calm, but absolutely aware that any action on his part could have killed me. I screwed up and thought just because we did the same thing every single day since he got here, that something couldn't change. I was trapped in the corner and dealing with a completely different horse. It was like he wasn't even there. His eyes were empty and something was definitely wrong. Thankfully, God was protecting me and I got out of the situation. Never in my life have I seen a horse do exactly that, but it was a lesson well learned. By the end of treatment he was relaxed and we were back in a good space. So many things could happen here. We don't know if his bone will heal completely. If his bone dies, so does he. Will the infection spread to his brain? We hope not, but that spot seemed to be putting pressure on his brain. (We are treating that with the clay and the infection is slowly draining, which alleviates the ...

The following is from All About Equine Rescue All About Equine Animal Rescue, Inc. Jennings came to AAE from a distressed mustang sanctuary with several of his friends. He was thin and had a rapidly growing mass on his sheath that was suspected to be squamous cell carcinoma.   Shortly after his arrival at AAE, the mass was removed and a biopsy revealed that it was metastatic melanoma. Thankfully, margins were clean, and there was no vascular invasion. No additional recurrent or new growths have been found since! Jennings is really sweet. He likes to hang out with volunteers, enjoys grooming, and he's a cool guy. He's good with the farrier, no big issues loading, and he trailers well. He's been ridden in the past, but he should have a refresher before hitting the trails again. Somehow this special boy hasn't been adopted yet! Jennings is looking for an experienced home to build his confidence and continue his training. If your mamma is okay with you growing up to be a cowboy (or cowgirl!), then read more about Jennings and see if you're a good fit for him! Your donations, volunteering, adopting, and social media shares & likes really do make a difference and make all of this work possible! Thank YOU! Boots & Bling is nearly sold out! We hope you'll join us! Get your tickets before it's too late! The event features a catered BBQ dinner by Devil Dawgs Smoked Meats, DJ music and entertainment by The Sundance Kid, live and silent auctions, dancing, and more. You'll need to be in attendance to bid on the dessert and live auction items, but f you're not able to make the event, you can still support Boots and Bling and AAE by registering for the silent auction.
