UPDATE - HORSE NEEDS EYE SURGERY SLY- The abused horse rescued on Feb 21, 2008- "Story of Sly" The judge has heard the case and TEARS was awarded custody of
Sly. The owner was also advised by the judge that if he should
ever purchase another horse, (or other
animal), TEARS would maintain the authority to enter the man's
property to check on the status of said animal.
When the Vet examined Sly's eye, he prescribed medication, hoping
it would heal and not have to be removed. Apparently, the prior "owner" told
TEARS that somehow Sly had gotten 'buckshot' in his eye!
The man never even called a Vet to look at the injury, and due
to the degree of infection, poor Sly has to have his eye removed. The
Vet said he had lost the vision already, but removing his eye
will eliminate further infections and alleviate the pain.
The cost of the surgery has been estimated at $600.00 and has to
be paid when service is rendered. TEARS does not have the funds
to pay for Sly's surgery as they are barely making ends meet now.
He is being kept as comfortable as possible with bute and more antibiotics,
but really needs the surgery soon.
If you can donate something to help this deserving horse, please
use pay pal on our website at www.tearstown.org or
if you use snail mail the address is: We are placing SLY on our adoption list. If anyone is interested in this 7 year old gelding appaloosa please email terra@tearstown.net. The adoption fee is $400.00. The original cost of services rendered plus the eye surgery is around $1200.00.
