Things have been pretty slow around the rescue lately, what with all the snow! Now that there’s been a thaw, we decided to re-acquaint Princess with an old friend.

Running with friends while fostered on a ranch I’m a beautiful 1987 purebred Arabian granddaughter of *Bask. When I came to the rescue in 2007, I was pregnant and very thin. I was being used as a broodmare, but even then the pregnancies took too much out of me, even with pelleted feed and supplements. [...]
