~ WELL-BROKE MARE NEEDS A CHANCE & FARRIER WORK ~Age: 12 Height: 14'3 Sex: Mare Breed: American Quarter Horse x - Adoption Fee: 550.00 DESCRIPTION: Matilda has been at the KB lot since I first started going out there, she was unsound when she first came thru the sale. Her shoes were reset & kids rode her all summer. She is now lame again, I suspect that she is navicular (?). Her feet need to be redone. I would have an experienced farrier work on her ASAP if she comes off of the lot, her feet are not how they should be for a navicular horse & that is why she is unsound again. Lameness may always be an issue for her. She is very broke & honestly a nice mare that just has a serious foot issue, the hard ground & atmosphere at the lot are not helping her any. PLACEMENT SPECIALIST: Shawna tufnspendy@aol.com

I will donate 4 weeks of board for Matilda at my farm in Santa Rosa, CA for anyone who assumes full financial responsibility (either foster or adopt) for Matilda.
The money saved on a month of board could go toward a proper lameness evaluation.
If this gal went reasonably sound over the summer, she may go sound again with proper hoof care and possibly corrective shoeing. I make frequent trips to Pioneer Equine in Oakdale and could provide transport down there for Matilda to have a lameness eval.

Have we given up on this mare??? Carried kids around all summer and this is her reward? Please offer her a home if you can. I will pledge $75 towards her bail.

Anyone have any idea what is going on with Matilda?
I'm really hoping we don't loose another horse to what I've come to think of as the red dun lot jinx.

Matilda is safely in QT, I already had my farrier out to work on her. He found a HUGE abcess that went almost to her coffin bone. We doctored the abcess, put pads & shoes on her & gave her BUTE. I am hoping she will feel much better tomorrow.

I am so relieved. The excitement of Pay Day arriving today in CA was dampened by thinking about Matilda all week.

What's the official status of Matilda? She's listed as adopted on the CBER site, and if that is the case, then I'd like to move this thread...
Can anyone enlighten me? Thanks!

Last I heard, she was pulled off the lot and taken to Shawna's ... that was last week.
Not sure if she's actually adopted or not, but safe (for now).
