Feature Photo"The UHC has helped us with five mini stallions, which is amazing! Sadly, many of the minis that enter the action pipeline are studs, I guess because owners don’t want to spend the money, and the little ones are easy, even as stallions.
We saw Nicholas at the Cranbury auction. I didn’t call for him until after the deadline, which means he was heading out to the big kill buyer auction in New Holland PA. My friend and volunteer was watching the FB page and noticed that Nugget, the Pinto, had same hind leg and spinal deformities (both of them are dwarf minis). We pulled him a week after Nicholas, and you should have seen Nicholas when Nugget got off the trailer. He rushed over to protect him! We feel sure they are related, maybe father and son. They will be living here in Truro; I am not going to consider adopting them out because they are adorable!"-Karen Tosh, Esq. |
