Blossom and Foaly

Blossom the horse was bought as a riding horse at a yard in Suffolk. However it soon became apparent that she had been drugged when "tested out" as she was starting to become difficult to handle. If fact she was deemed un-manageable by her new owners and arrangements were made to have her shot.  Some of the other people at the yard tried to prevent this by seeking a new home for Blossom... She arrived at the Sanctuary on January 2nd 2021.  5 months later the reason she had not wanted to be ridden became apparent when we found a small foal at her side in the field! She had been 4 months pregnant when originally purchased

Unfortunately, the birth didn't go well and Blossom developed Toxicosis, which was passed to her baby and became a chronic infection in her rear leg knee joint. So bad in fact that the vet only gave her a 5% chance of survival. However we took that chance and aggressively treated the infection with daily intravenous injections of antibiotics and daily flushing of the joint with saline.  As the days went by, her chances of survival started to improve and eventually the infection went and she is happily gallping about with Mum who also made a full recovery.
