Not even two weeks in rescue and Dove and Sparrow continue to progress so well with their weight gain!
We're going to have a longer update on Thursday night but wanted to share these amazing progress photos with you. We were able to get Dove's actual weight as we had to revisit the vet for updated radiographs of her feet and she has gained an incredible 83lbs in 2 weeks! (Photos below are at Day 10).
Be sure to check in later on Thursday for an additional update with a video!
Scroll down for photos :)
Huge thank you to Dover Saddlery for donating these incredible soaking boots and betadine to help make icing Dove's legs easier! These are so helpful!



83lbs gained in 10 days- only 3 of which are on a full ration of alfalfa! The rest were smaller rations that slowly increased from 1lb every few hours for the first three days.
One of our incredible volunteers giving Dove a sponge bath for her comfort. She has been enjoying the cool-offs in this intense heat as she has been in a stall for foot treatments. Not to worry, she also has a fan ;) Sparrow is out in our quarentine paddock which is well shaded and in an area of the Ranch that just naturally stays cooler. He's enjoyed a few baths as well.
