Hi This is my first time posting on the rescue board but I been a lurker for a while now. I need any help you all can give! Please! Last nite my husband and I rescued a mini. I feel it was a rescue although the women I got her from would disagree. I answered an ad for a mini that needed a good home for a set price. Ok no problem, but the more we started to talk back and forth I felt somthing was wrong deep down.( some times you just know) 2 days before we were going to go get her I wanted to cancel. My husband talked me back in to going. So last nite we went. They were at a big horse show and she was tied in the trailer for 2 days with no bocket of water that I seen. She looked horrable! Never seen a brush(and you know they had them, they were at a horse show of petes sake!) Clumps of winter hair every where. They were laughing saying " yah we were sitting here petting her and it looked like it was snowing, ha ha!" She has a tooth that stickes out on the side of her mouth that she cut her self on in our trailer on the way home. Her feet look horrable, chipped up in spots and way to long. And heres the kicker... shes blind! Oh my goodness! I knew she was blind in one eye but not fully! Can you even imagine how scared she had to be( please forgive me this was so tramatic, I can't stop crying)! They had to back the trailer up to ours and drag/pull her in. Needless to say the ride how I was a mess! My husband is a rock! And I thank God for him! The only qusetion he asked was why didn't you leave her? I told him that I couldn't! I cant even talk about how we got her out of the trailer. I feel so bad for her. We had to drag her in to the stall. She was sooo stressed out she couldn't stand. I stayed with her for a little while but eventually went into the house. I prayed all nite thats all I could do. This morning I dreaded going out there and finding her dead. But... Great news..... shes alive and up and drinking and eating hay!!!! Sorry for the long story but I just needed to share this with people who understand! I need to know how to build a blind minis trust, where do I start? I'm not giving up on her! If she made it through this I know shes worth in! Please give any advise you can. I'm very open to any help!
