Tony

Languishing in the heat of a hot summer day, Tony was alone in a pen at a local livestock auction, covered in biting flies. He had apparently foundered at some point earlier and his hooves were long overdue for a trim, making it all the more difficult for him to walk.

Despite his miserable morning at the auction, Tony was the sweetest little horse you'd ever want to meet, tolerating our careful scrutiny of his condition, including inspection of his hooves. He came home with us for $142.40. And then he found a permanent and loving home with Stefani.
