Dreamer
Dreamer is a 2.5-3 year old paint filly. Toby's Legacy rescued her from slaughter out of a kill buyer's feedlot in Fallon, NV just days before she would have shipped. Dreamer has a brand. She will be smaller sized, we estimate approximately 14-14.2 hands at maturity.
Dreamer has a cleft palate which means she has a birth defect causing a hole in her soft palate which allows food and water to pass in to her trachea and out her nose. The majority of horses with cleft palates don't live to her age due to complications from aspirating (pneumonia) or are underweight but she is a fighter and has managed to beat the odds. We found someone to do the surgery (has never been done on older than a foal) to correct the cleft palate but will cost $4,000-$6,000. In order for this to be possible, sponsorships and donations are needed. We are applying to UC Davis and other veterinary schools but the schools are not able to do the work pro-bono and instead simply offer a more competitive rate than standard equine veterinary hospitals.
Beyond the cleft palate, Dreamer is happy and otherwise healthy. She is in training and knows her groundwork. She is an in your pocket pony and loves attention. She is looking for a forever home open to the idea of allowing us to, possible, correct her cleft palate in the future.
Adoption Fee:$500
