4th of July Crisis - Chevie Silverado


As I write this, we have Chevie Silverado in a stall and are waiting for the veterinarian to arrive.
Tragically, Chevie received a severe injury to a front leg and we know he will require many stitches. The skin is hanging down and the injury is deep - we can see the bone in one spot.

We have steel gate panel fences, and do not know how he would find a spot to hurt himself. We believe he was spooked by some fireworks and ran, and a horizonal piece of the steel panel popped off the weld and poked him with great force.

I know this is going to be quite a bill - with the holiday and being after hours. I can assure you that Chevie Silverado will be alright and the vet is on his way........but the financial strain is too much for ASAP to bear. If any of you who know Chevie or remember him racing feel compelled to give - even $5 or $10, every cent will go towards his vet bill. Please help us help Chevie!
