A walk around the farm finds our rescues getting fuzzy as their bodies prepare for our coldest time of year.
Little Destiny is recovering from her hernia surgery (photo at right- she is a newer rescue to SERR to please excuse her still-rough coat and look. She decorated her tail with shavings for the photo!

She has made a lot of progress so far- she's put on weight and gotten rid of worms, etc that she arrived with- we've been thrilled to see her personality come out as she's gotten healthier in her short few months at Serenity. She has a very outgoing manner, and truly likes people. Right now she bandaged to protect her incision site but she is healing well under Patricia's constant care. Like most of our rescues, she relishes her time in her stall- rolling in her shavings and laying down to sleep at night.
We head into winter grateful for many things- our new drainage in the lower fields, gravel that has eliminated mud in front pastures, our new shelters in runs 1-8, and the blanket donations we've received that are now keeping our rescues warm... but we have much to do to make it through these upcoming very cold months.
We've got vet bills to cover for Destiny's surgery, we need some more blankets to insulate our thin new rescues from the cold (our newest rescues need them the most- and they are tall thoroughbreds so size 80 and larger are needed) and we're gathering tack for our next tack sale.
So if you're cleaning your barn or tack room in preparation for Santa to fill your stocking with tack, or if you've got a spare blanket or two- please let us know. You can e-mail Patricia at patricia@serenityequinerescue.com to make arrangements to drop off donations.
