THANK YOU!!! DR. MARTA!!!

All the horses are getting their 4-Way, & West Nile shots, from Dr. Marta! She volunteers her time to Safe Haven Horse Rescue, when she can!!! She ROCKS!!! Here's ole Booger getting his first shot! One shot one side......
Second shot, the other side!!!! Tracey is smiling so ya know he did good!!! Booger, has been adopted by Bonnie. She likes her horses big & this Quarter Horse Gelding is 16.1 hands!!!! I'd say that's a pretty good size horse!!! Wouldn't you?
On we went to do the Minis that still needed to be done, & it was Buckin' Buttercups turn!! & of course I missed it when she reared!!! & got a pic when she looks like an angel!!! LOL! Let's see how Tootsie does....................
Not well!!!! Look at those eyes!!! I was quite happy to see I had captured her mane just a blowing!!! It was very windy here today & we managed to feed without getting rained on! Yeah!
Oh Boy! Rodeo!!! Dr. Marta calls this a 'fly by' shot giving!!!!!! Do it quick & MOVE!
This is Bailey, a kill pen rescue, Tracey just loves her Bailey!! Bailey was quite good for her shots!
Second side!
Sierra the little Paso Fino, that Lucretia adopted is next, & then it's Lu's other adopted boy Amigo's turn. Amigo was in too much shade so I did not get his picture. Sierra was very good for her shots. Nice!
After the shots were over, 'Mom' went in to give pats & 'good girls' to her mare! Good Job!
OK, now it is time for Daisey Mae, a recent newbie at Safe Haven. She came in from Red Bluff Animal Control a few weeks ago. She's pretty FOOD aggressive we have found out!
But she handled getting her vaccinations like a pro!
We did Dancer, Shady Lady, & Willow, but again too much shade for a see-able picture! So here is Billie getting his shots. He was good too.
Now it's Louie's turn! Tracey had to leave to go to work, so Barb, a new HARD WORKING Volunteer took over!!! Since she started helping out at Safe Haven, I don't think she's missed a day!!!! Louie is an Arabian & has only been at Safe Haven for 2/3 weeks.
His former owners said he was about 4, but Linda looked at his teeth awhile ago, & she predicted 12, & so Dr. Marta checks his teeth & she agrees!
All the horses got their vaccinations, but I was only, at Safe Haven today, when they were finishing up the last few. Tomorrow is SATURDAY!!!!! Someone is having a Birthday & we're having CAKE! YOU should come out to Safe Haven & do some volunteering, & have some CAKE!!! Melissa is going to make a nice one!!! Hope to see you tomorrow!
Bye for now,
Linda C.
