This is Savannah a day or so after her previous owner's death. Even here, she turns away from people.

 Below we have Steve Silkotch putting the wierdest set of hind shoes on that I have ever seen, in an effort to change the shape and angles of her back feet. After who knows how long trying not to use her right hind, both of her hind feet are deformed. You can see she stands patiently for Steve. Laurie Henkel adjusted her hip, and we'll see how well this works as time goes by. Both Steve and Laurie suggest waiting for true results until after the next shoeing.

As of late December 2007, although she still seems distant to me, she is more cooperative with Mike and allowed Jane, one of her sponsors, to walk right up to her for a little petting.  She's getting better...

  At this time Savannah is half-sponsored by Jane Crase.  Thank you Jane! Please contact Casey if you would be interested in sponsoring any of the un-sponsored horses at The Golden Carrot.
