Saving Oscar
I wanted to just include a quick but extremely important Blog from my boss, Sue! We are all working hard to prevent Oscar being handed back to his abusive owners. Laws are very different here in Spain and Rod and Sue´s Foundation is doing wonders throughout Spain to save the lives of horses and donkeys, in a similar fashion to the RSPCA in Great Britain! Please message your support to The Rescue Centre or myself to pass on to Sue.
Thanks
Luke
Attached are photo`s of horses and donkey`s that we rescued from the place in San Louis that you are telling us that Oscar has to go back to. Also a photo of a dead horse that we were to late to save from there.
Also Oscar had shoes on which if they owned him for two years he was being ridden or used to pull a cart. He was also skeletal as shown in the last photo taken the day he arrived at the centre. As previously stated this horses legs have been destroyed by over work. His tendons have lost their elasticity and therefor causing the joints to slowly collapse. With out medication he will be in a great deal of pain and with out specialist shoeing and medical care the joints will collapse much quicker. Even in our care he will only have two or thee years at the most then he would have been put to sleep humanly
If he is not receiving correct veterinary care it would be kinder to put him to sleep now.
Monday he will still be having a blood test to determine why he is drinking so much water. Dorothea thinks he possibly has kidney problems that will also require daily medication.
If this horse is handed back to these people by the authorities that originally asked us to save him it would be a tragedy for him and a big step backwards for animal rescue in Spain.
