I'd be asking as much as possible about purchasing her once the foal is weaned, I guess all they'd ask is more than the cost of purchasing a replacement 'uterus'. What an awful life for these mares, I've been hoping so hard you'd be able to keep her somehow. But don't give up - ask the owners, ask ask ask!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4728532494108633757.post-49686582517909268562012-02-08T05:44:31.728-08:002012-02-08T05:44:31.728-08:00I think the second-most horrid thing to do to a ma...I think the second-most horrid thing to do to a mare is a recipient mare, carrying a foal for a mare "too valuable" to carry her own foal. A friend just bought a mare complete with another mare carrying the first mare's foal. Foal was born and died of a heart defect. Recip mare headed back to where she came from--to do the same thing all over again. Totally unwanted, unvalued except for her uterus and I just find the whole thing unbearable sad. She is a big sweetheart with no papers so....phaedra96https://www.blogger.com/profile/13073887491311158448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4728532494108633757.post-39149681657731621602012-02-07T11:12:07.267-08:002012-02-07T11:12:07.267-08:00Awww, poo.

Poor Bay Girl!<br /><br />Personally, I think that continuing to teach her what you can would be the kindest thing you could do for her. I'm sure all your hard work so far has already given her a better shot at finding a good home. I know it will make goodbye that much tougher, but it truly could mean all the difference to where she ends up down the road...Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13793035520828459130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4728532494108633757.post-67680715192538544682012-02-07T10:42:32.571-08:002012-02-07T10:42:32.571-08:00this sucks... :(this sucks... :(Boss Mare Eventinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08039910692009593158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4728532494108633757.post-73946782080345936372012-02-07T07:05:15.444-08:002012-02-07T07:05:15.444-08:00Aww I'm so sorry!

There was a horse I loved that wasn't mine and I'll tell you if I'd known he was leaving I would have lived in his stall. I spent every second I could with him and they just got rid of him one day when I wasn't there. I was heartbroken. I'll always love that horse. When you get sad, just remember Sophie. :)Achieve1dreamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15401246064499148344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4728532494108633757.post-42723501051646800042012-02-06T09:01:32.728-08:002012-02-06T09:01:32.728-08:00I'm so sorry.

That's one of the main reasons I left the rescue world: so many you wanted to keep, but couldn't, and so many you wanted to save, but circumstances just wouldn't allow it and you don't even want to think about what happened to them afterwards. It's horrible. Hopefully things can work out for Bay Girl like they did with Sofie.Dressagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04849960430806754249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4728532494108633757.post-50448287686681636432012-02-05T17:50:31.510-08:002012-02-05T17:50:31.510-08:00I think she can benefit from all the life skills y...I think she can benefit from all the life skills you can help her learn in the time she stays at your facility.
