Sending Geo to Her Forever Home!
Donation protected
Originally, Geo was due to move in 2016 to her forever home at Breezewood Farm in Wisconsin, the place where I learned how to ride as a youth. Due to my own personal and rather serious health problems, repeated hospitalizations and surgeries/procedures, and lengthy recovery periods, I was unable to get her there last year. As a result of my health issues, I am in a good amount of debt and cannot realistically come up with the chunk of money needed to get Geo to Wisconsin, where she will get to live out her days in a pasture, like a regular horse, instead of a stall, which she has been living in for 2.5 years.
This issue has been tearing me apart emotionally, and before every surgery, I always said it was my dying wish to have Geo get to Breezewood should anything happen to me. Please help me keep my promise to this beautiful, smart, spunky, and sweet horse.
Geo is a 15-16-year-old mare that I took under my wing almost 7 years ago with the hopes of giving her a better life than what she already had. Years before I met her, she was in an accident and got hit by a truck, causing damage to her left shoulder and some of her incisors. She is currently located at a city stable, where she used to be able to be turned out in the corral. But she further injured herself in the summer of 2014, tearing her suspensory ligament in her right foreleg. She was put on stall rest to heal. And while that injury eventually DID heal, her old shoulder injury got much worse, due to her compensation for the ligament injury on the opposite side.
Please help me cover the fees associated with shipping her from California to Wisconsin, and the necessary veterinary inoculations and certifications to be able to cross state lines.
***Also, please note that this campaign DOES have a deadline. Horses need to be transitioned onto grass pasture slowly in increasing increments each day or they can potentially colic and actually die. We are trying to get Geo to Breezewood in time for the annual gradual transition with the rest of the horses, in time, which means funds need to be secured by the first week of May at the latest!***
Thank you *very* much, from the bottom of my heart and on behalf of Geo.
