Help our little filly find her footing.
Four-month-old Pinot came to Sound Equine Options in July with deep, infected wounds on the front of both hocks. Her injuries were so severe she was dragging her hind leg. We assume she got caught in barbed wire and her panic to escape left her with these wounds.
Over the past four months, Pinot has gotten surgery at OSU Veterinary Hospital, received stall rest with daily bandage changes and medication, and weekly vet checkups. As the weeks passed, Pinot’s mobility started to improve. She went from dragging her leg to walking normally.
Fast forward to today, Pinot is thriving. She is out of her bandages, getting daily turnout time and making friends with another weanling at her foster home. She’s even able to kick up her heels and lope in the pasture. These basic horse movements weren’t even a possibility for Pinot just a few months ago.
Pinot isn’t fully healed yet and still needs the granulation tissue on her right hind leg monitored closely.
Can you help Pinot go the extra mile in her recovery? Donate $10 or more to Sound Equine Options via Give!Guide today and you could win one of two $250 gift certificates from Atlas Tattoo. Pinot said she’ll happily be your inked inspiration.
