Smokey is more than just a pet—he’s Kayla’s best friend and a cherished companion to many. For the past four years, Smokey has been by Kayla’s side, offering steady friendship and sharing in every moment of growth and progress. Their bond is truly special, and Smokey’s gentle spirit has touched the hearts of everyone who knows him.

Recently, Smokey faced a heartbreaking emergency. He suffered a severe colic, which caused his colon to distend. This sudden and serious condition meant Smokey needed to be rushed to San Luis Rey Equine Hospital, where he is now being prepped for emergency colic surgery. The situation is urgent, and the costs for his care and surgery are significant.

Kayla is reaching out for support to help cover Smokey’s surgery and recovery expenses. Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a difference in giving Smokey the best chance to heal and return home. Your kindness will help Kayla and Smokey through this difficult time, and as a special thank you, Smokey would love to send hoof print thank you cards after his recovery. Please consider helping this beloved friend get back on his feet.
