Florence
Florence is a filly that arrived from a meat buyer in late 2023. She is from bucking stock and was born in 2023. Florence came to us with 2 large hot-iron brands, one on her shoulder and one on her hip, that caused her considerable trauma - the only handling she'd had before coming to us. In addition to the brands she was quite emaciated and in poor condition with a heavy worm load when we got her. Florence also had strangles (distemper) on arrival and was quarantined while she recovered. We believe she has some draft breeding in her and that she'll be a good size when grown. It took a long time but she's starting to be more comfortable around people and nickers when she sees us.
