Brandy had her first vet appointment!

The vet examined her unusual teeth, but we still don’t have a definite answer. The only explanation she could think of was what I had wondered about too: possible cribbing during a period of severe stress. I haven’t seen Brandy cribbing here, so that part of her story remains a mystery.

* For those unfamiliar, cribbing is a repetitive behavior where a horse grips a solid object, like a fence or stall door, with their front teeth. It can be associated with stress as well as boredom. *

Her joints are stiff enough, they snap, crackle, pop! I assumed she might be in her 20s. The vet estimated her to be around 15 to late teens, so the age of 17 I was told at intake seems to fit.

Unfortunately, she already has arthritis and had difficulty fully bending her joints, especially her front right knee. It seems whoever had her before her last owner asked a great deal of her body. She is never to be ridden again, as an adult rider’s weight would be too much for her joints.

I’m so, so thankful she landed with us, a sanctuary where she can live free from being used for human entertainment. She doesn’t have to carry anyone or earn her place here. She gets to simply be Brandy.

She’s also receiving daily eye ointment to treat her conjunctivitis. We’re slowly learning more about our sweet and spicy girl and what she needs to feel her best. 🤎

Ain’t Much is often seen as a naughty horse, but he truly is a good boy, you just need to build a bond with him. Like most animals, he needs trust for a relationship to grow.

People are often surprised to learn that our unruly king responds to voice commands and loves it. If he didn’t want to, he simply wouldn’t budge! 👑🐴

When grief-induced insomnia hits hard, I find myself asking these questions. To my angel babies and my parents, I love you. Always. 🤍

Brandy felt like the perfect name for this sweet and spicy girl. 🤎

Brandy’s story is a little different than most of our intakes. Her owner was a young teenager battling cancer, and amid such a heavy time, Brandy was left at a boarding facility. I was asked to take her in.

And yes, her name is Brandy, like Wh***ey. Alcohol-inspired horse names. I wish Wh***ey were here to meet his new sister. 🤍

I’m sure I’ll be spamming you with videos of her this next week.
