Special thanks to Tony, who has toured the ASAP farm this week and desires
to do some grant writing for us! He said when he arrived at the farm and
was greeted by a variety of wagging tails and curious faces at the barn
door, he had a great feeling about the atmosphere of ASAP and can clearly
see the passion in what we do. PRICELESS. Also thanks to M.W. for volunteering at ASAP. After seeing many of the
horses, and hearing their stories and the things that are so badly needed
in terms of care, she has decided to assist Taser Gun in getting the
diagnostics he needs to help him become sound again. Originally when he
first became lame last summer, vets speculated that he had hip arthritis
after the initial exam. With Prevacox, totally funded by ASAP, his
condition has not greatly improved. Dr. Dean Meyer suggested sacroiliac
problems and suggested that an injection is available that may help him
become sound again (if this is the diagnosis). We put out a plea from
past fans of Taser Gun, owners, trainers, but have not received any
donations to date. Thankfully, M.W. has stepped up to help. We will give
you the play by play as plans come together to help Taser! Our wish list includes: Sponsorship $$ to help the following horses with badly needed hoof trims:
Cobrador Kosmos
Bob Cook
ARNE
Taser Gun
Timesareachanging
Taz
Market Analysis
Holly A garden cart or other larger cart (besides our wheelbarrow, which loses
its bolt all of the time and dumps the hay bale), or wagon to pull behind
a lawn tractor or Ford 8N (wishful thinking!). Hose - we are forever needing hoses as we fill water tanks year round Hay - small squares - or $$ to purchase more We are currently waiting on three adoption fees, which makes the
difference between $0 or $1000. Outstanding bills include: $2000 - veterinary bill for 2011 (we are making payments)
$2000 - feed bill for 2011 (we currently pay for each order as it arrives
rather than adding to this bill) With the current offer for grant writing (Carmen, you too and thank you in
advance for what you will do!)..........hopefully we can climb out of the
hole from last year and sail through 2012 with out any debt. Thanks for all you do!
