Hank came into our rescue program on August 7, 2011. Hank came from the Oklahoma City Animal Welfare Division along with one other horse. Hank is a Beautiful, Sorrel, Thoroughbred, Gelding. Hank is estimated to be 5 years of age. He is a super sweet boy and loves attention. Hank is underweight and has a huge wound on his withers. Hank has shoes on four feet and it looks as though someone continued to ride this horse, despite the infected withers. Our Veterinarian drained nearly 4 liters of puss out of this poor boy. The infection is looking better and the wound isn't draining nearly as much. It still amazes me what people will push these horses to do, despite their body condition and/or open wounds. Hank is currently on lots of antibiotics and continued therapy to help his wounds heal. Hank has a long road of recovery ahead of him. We will update as he progresses. Please consider making a donation towards Hank's rehabilitation.
Update February 2012 Hank is now seeking his forever, loving home. Hank's withers are healing nicely. No more drainage, just a scab that is healing and hair growth is forming. He looks great and full of spunk and energy. He truly enjoys life and loves to play. Hank is broke to ride, would recommend an experienced rider, as he has a lot of spunk and energy. He is extremely sweet and loves attention. Hank loads in a trailer and stands for the farrier. Hank has a current negative coggins, up to date on vaccinations, deworming and hoof maintenance. If you are interested in adopting this sweet boy, please submit an adoption application or call/email to schedule an appointment to come visit Hank.
Hank has been adopted to a wonderful family in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Hank is going to be extremely well loved and spoiled rotten in his forever, loving home. We are thrilled that this sweet boy has found his forever, loving family where he will receive the time and attention that he deserves.
