Hot Shot came into our rescue program on May 1st, 2009 from Beckham County. Hot Shot came into rescue along with 39 other horses, 12 Donkeys and a mule that were severely starved and neglected in Sayre, Oklahoma. Neighbors reported seeing several dead animals on the property to the Beckham County Sheriff's Office on April 28, 2009. Approximately 45 horse carcasses were located in different states of decomposition. The remaining 52 horses were found infested with internal and external parasites, injuries left untreated, hooves in extremely poor condition, some pregnant, one with a dislocated hip and another with a broken leg and body conditions ranging from a 1 to a 3. None of these horses were being properly cared for or had received proper Veterinary care in quite some time. Some of the horses hooves had growth over a year old. This is by far, one of the worst rescues we have seen. These horses have suffered a great deal. However, the ones that did not make it, suffered more than they should have been allowed. Horses were found dead, where they had dug themselves a hole and clearly suffered and died. It was devastating! We were able to save 52 horses, all of which are doing wonderful! These horses will never have to suffer the hands of such horrible neglect again. Please consider making a donation towards the rehabilitation of these wonderful horses.

Hot Shot is a Beautiful, Buckskin/White, Paint, Gelding. He is estimated to be 3 1/2 years of age! He was a body score of a 2 upon arrival, weighing in at 650 pounds, infested with ticks, lice and internal parasites. Hot Shot is broke to ride, but needs some time under saddle being refreshed before hitting a trail. He is still a little green. He has a current negative coggins, up to date on vaccinations, deworming, lice treatment, and hoof maintenance. He is a sweet boy and would make someone an excellent horse.

HotShot has been adopted to a wonderful family in Lawton, Oklahoma. HotShot is going to be extremely spoiled and very well loved. He has a wonderful new family that he gets to hit the trails with. We are thrilled that this beautiful boy has found his forever, loving home.
