'Pico'

Pico is a little mini pony gelding, born about 2007.  He came to the Rescue in November, 2017 from an impound lot.   He was neglected and abandoned, with his hooves extremely overgrown.     We were told he'd actually been shipped to the slaughter plant but was rejected due to the condition of his feet.    Thank you to Monty for fostering him during his recovery, and to Birgitta for working on his feet to get them back into shape.  Pico was adopted to a loving home in early 2018.

Here is a video of Pico after his first trim.  What a difference! 
He must feel so much better.
Happy with his new feet!
