This baby needs urgent help! More info: http://www.facebook.com/libertad.equina.3 or http://www.facebook.com/LibertadEquina
This colt had an accident so they bandaged his tany hand but too tight, and they never changed. The band lasted a long time, until completely rotted so they abandoned him. When doctors veterinary care providers they removed the blindfold came off his hoof and had everything rotten wormy, the prosthesis is quite expensive but the horse can survive, we need people who can make donations for the recovery and prosthesis of this angel who has only known the worst side of human
Is being treated at a university in Ibague, Colombia (the country). Thanks to all kindhearted doctors accompanying this case who are willing to donate. Please communicate with CLAUDIA GUZMAN XIMENA RIVILLA celphone 3118169614. Donations are urgently needed, thank you very much.
