Maggie is a 15 hand Tennessee Walking Horse mare with great ground manners. She enjoys being petted and groomed.
Maggie's ideal person would be someone who loves to groom and spend time with a horse without an interest in riding, as she is not sound enough for riding.
Maggie came to us in summer of 2017 with a history of no hoof care for years and severe lameness for two years. She was very painful in all four feet, but especially her right front leg. She has since been examined by our regular vet and multiple veterinary specialists and a corrective hoof care specialist. She has been diagnosed with laminitis and ringbone (arthritis). These conditions are manageable though not curable. She had surgery on the nerves in her right front leg which has greatly improved her comfort level. She also developed an eye problem that required treatment by an ophthalmologist but it is resolved now with no further treatment needed. Maggie was also diagnosed with PPID, a common condition of middle aged to older horses, which causes lack of hair shedding and tendency to get laminitis if it’s untreated. She’s doing great with treatment.
Maggie takes daily Prascend for her PPID. She can't be out on really lush pasture or have high sugar treats but can have small amounts of low NSC diets (we feed her Triple Crown or Tribute) to hide her medicine in. She's an easy keeper who doesn't need much feed.
Maggie wears Soft Rider shoes on her front feet and stands well for the farrier to put these on every 6-8 weeks. She does need them to help her stay comfortable.
Maggie is in Townville, SC. She is current on her basic vaccines, dentistry, hoof care, Coggins. If Maggie is adopted by someone local, Crossroads Animal Hospital will provide discounted vet care for her for the rest of her life.
To be considered for adopting Maggie, go to www.crossroadsanimalrescue.org and fill out an adoption application. This doesn't obligate you to adopt, just gets you approved so that we can have you meet her. There is no adoption fee for Maggie - we just want her to have her own family to love her and care for her! Maggie’s adoption is a lifelong free lease; if you cannot keep caring for her, she must be returned to the rescue, not resold.
CARE provides one week free boarding until you can pick up your new horse. For more information, please email us at drkathyjordan@yahoo.com You can see our adoption applications and and more info about our rescue on our website, www.crossroadsanimalrescue.org. To make the process faster, please submit an adoption application through our website. This in no way obligates you - it simply gets you approved to meet our horses. You can also call us at 864-972-9994.

More about this rescue
CARE was founded to decrease euthanasias in Oconee County, SC. We primarily aquire animals from the local animal control. Most of these pets would be euthanized if we did not take them. Once in our program, they are adopted out through us or transfered to another rescue/shelter where they are not at risk for euthanasia.
We work primarily with puppies and kittens as this is the age group most likely to be euthanized at our local animal control.
Our equine rescues are primarily neglect cases from animal control. We design feeding programs for them to gain weight back safely, provide hoof care, and treat any medical problems. Once healthy enough to adopt, we find them loving homes.
