Molly
Molly is our first rescue horse. She was 7 months old when we brought her home in 2003. She was born on a PMU ranch in Canada. At these ranches mares are bred and tied in stalls with a urine collector attached to them, they are given limited water to concentrate the urine. The urine goes to a lab and a hormone is extracted and used to make Premarin, a common hormone replacement prescribed to women for menopausal symptoms. After the foals are born, if they do not join their mothers in the barns they are sent to slaughter...this was Molly's fate. She was rescued by a wonderful lady in California that brought a trailer load of foals and pregnant mares down to safety. We adopted her and from then on we knew she would be with us forever.
She is now quite different from that scared, gangly, long legged filly we brought home. She is 17.2 hands and has the biggest heart of any horse I have ever met. She LOVES children and will do anything she can to please you. She is at all of out Reillys Ranch events and she made a trip with me to a preschool for their western days, I think she liked it as much as the kids.
