Many people have not had to feed a horse and believe that if you throw it some hay and some sweet feed it will be fine. Not true. Each horse, just as each person requires a different diet. Many horses at the Rescue require special diets because of their age, physical conditions and medical problems. We hope that this information can be useful to you wether you are deciding to purchase a horse or donate to help the horses at Equine Rescue Inc.
Fozzy is a 36yr old Thoroughbred.
She is approximately 16.2 h and in good health. She does require
