Rooney was a god send. He came from a local rescue here in town and he came to comfort Cadillac and be his companion. Little did we know we would lose Caddy so quickly, we assumed that he and Rooney would be lifelong buddies.
Rooney was one of many horses that are dumped for what ever reason the owners think makes it ok to abandon an animal. He was found in a riverbed in Riverside underweight and near death. Baker Rescue came to his aid and nursed him back to health. I brought him home and the rest is history.
This is the first day he came to the rescue. Broken body and broken soul.
After a few weeks of comfort, food, water, and patience he began to blossom.
He is very happy.
He came to us at a good weight and of good spirits, we added some workouts and training and look at him now! He proved to have some professional training and very likely show experience under his belt. He gave us no problems but just needy for attention.
He was Cadillac's best friend.
Never give up, you never know what diamond in the rough you will find in a lump of coal.
