Rudy has been my best friend for many years since my wife died. I am embarrassed and ashamed to leave him like this but I was afraid you won't want him. He needs wormed real bad and his feet are in bad shape too. I can't afford feed for him and I can't pay a vet to tend to him either. I hope he finds a good home with you folks and you don't give him to nobody else. It looks like he can make a lot of friends with all the horses you have. He is gentle and gets along with other horses real good. I will miss him very much; please tell him I love him very much and I am sorry to do this to him. I hope I don't get in no trouble for leaving him like this. Thank you and God Bless."

This owner left no name or phone number, just his best friend. We wish he would have contacted us so we could keep him posted on Rudy's well-being.

He has such a sweet disposition and loves everyone. It is evident you love him very much and must miss him terribly. We know he misses you too, there have been a few times when we have noticed him standing there looking towards the hay barn, as if he is expecting you to come back for him.
