Private Tom
August 22, 2010 4 CommentsPT has been ADOPTED!
Private Tom (PT for short) is named for all of our soldiers who will be coming home from Iraq. Like our warriors overseas, PT has done his duty and he has landed here at the rescue ready for a new beginning. PT came here a little worse for wear.
Private Tom on his first day here
PT doesn’t have a disease. He is not old. He has his scars but he is not lame. He is not wild or mean. PT quite simply has not had enough to eat. He didn’t have enough grass or hay or grain. You can see his backbone and his hip bones. His owners didn’t care enough about him to make sure that he had food. He could have ended up on that truck headed to Canada because no one wants a thin horse.

What a beautiful fellow!
Even though PT has stood at the gate waiting for food that never came, he still trusts humans to do what is right. PT still meets you at the gate. PT has earned his chance at a new life.
Every horse that comes into the rescue costs CVHR between $250-$500 for their first month. This covers their feed as well as vet bills, worming and any dental work or farrier work they may need.
PT is looking better just two weeks after his arrival at the rescue. He has such a sparkle to his eye.
Every horse that comes into CVHR needs heroes! Won’t you be PT’s hero? Every dollar that is donated goes directly to care for PT and his friends.

I saw this horse on facebook a couple nights ago (think it was him), and made a donation for $50.00
When will he be ready for adoption, and how much?
Hi Tim, Thank you so much for your donation. I will list you as one of his heroes. I am not sure when he will be ready for adoption. It depends on how he gains weight and how he does under saddle. We won’t be evaluating him for saddle until he has put on a bit more weight. Most of the adoption fees are between $500 and $750. If you are interested in adopting him, we would love to have you come visit him.
Hi,
What is the current status of PT? He is rather lovely
He has an adoption pending. We should know in the next few days.
