Sessie.......on Sat. 2/20/10

Sessie, was out in the arena for a little romp! She stopped long enough for me to take her picture tho! She is sooo pretty, & is doing much better!! Here's a picture of her poor skinny body! She has put some weight on...but she has a long way to go!!!
While she was in the arena, she noticed that Candy was 'cruising' close to the gate of her pen!!!! &&& Sessie said "Oh no you don't!! You stay out of my pen Girlie!!!" Sessie, was in the arena when Onyx, the 3 year old Arabian, came flying by (too close for comfort) & OUR SESSIE! Let him have it! w/ a firm kick to his side!!! She does Not Stand for any of that rough housin' stuff!

After putting Onyx in his place, Bonnie took her out of the arena, & brought her down to the hitching post for some grooming, & Sessie got to meet Lovie!!!! (who just might become her Sister!) Holly, has called 'dibs' on Sessie!!!! (all depending on her recovery of course) Holly adopted Lovie, after she 'recovered' from being emaciated.......Lovie was 400lbs underweight when she came to Safe Haven Horse Rescue! SO! the current 'phase' at the ranch is adopting two horses of the same color!!! Bonnie has her chestnut T/B mares, Flower & Toni, Lisa w/ her Romeo & Juliette, both QH bays! & then Holly w/ her T/B bay girls!!! SWEET!
Sessie loved all the grooming attention from Bonnie, who knows how to do a very intensive 'clean up' grooming job!!!!
Here's another picture of Sessie's body about half way thru being groomed. I think she has gained weight! The plan was to weight tape her yesterday....but....there was so much going on...that we forgot to do that!!! I will post it as soon as we do that! OK! I am back & editing this post to say; Sessie now weighs 888lbs!!!!! WHOOOHOOO........Linda R. has just called me , to say they weight taped her today Sunday Feb 21,2010 She has gained: 38lbs.......so far!!!!!
Safe Haven Horse Rescue, would like to THANK EVERYONE for all the donations given to help us, help this awesome horse!!! She is so kind & gentle................... & even if she wasn't........... she did not deserve to be treated like she was!!! Thank You All Again!
Bye for now,
Linda C.

Cessy was getting pretty Sassy on Sat. She's filling out nicely too. Another week or 2 and we probably won't see her ribs anymore.
