Today's Animal in Need


MIDGET- 13 year-old 9hh miniature horse mare- companion/pasture pet only

-----------------------------------

Midget is an excellent companion. She has founder
ed in the past and has some arthritis in her hips, but is doing very well these days and doesn’t require regular medication. When needed, she benefits from a little bute powder and a low dose of percolide, but is currently off all meds. She shouldn’t be in a field that has much/rich grass.

Midget needs a gentle pony or small horse who is patient with her as a companion. She is too lonely when she is left alone in a field. She also needs bedding in her run-in shed as she does like to lie down and take naps. Midget has shared a field with Jessica and they get along very well.

Midget gets a little senior grain to take her medication with and maintain acceptable weight. She also eats 2-3 flakes of hay daily. Midget needs her hooves trimmed every 4-5 weeks to maintain a good angle.

Located in Allentown, New Jersey area.
