Phoenix is a survivor of the October 2020 trailer wreck. After retiring from a brief racing career, Phoenix found herself on a truck amongst 29 other equines destined for slaughter. The stock trailer was traveling southwest on interstate 44 when it crashed, sliding along the median and finally coming to a rest on its side. Phoenix had been contained in the front section of the trailer and was the last horse that rescuers freed from the trailer. She sustained serious injuries and was immediately transported to a nearby equine veterinary hospital. Once her condition was stable, staff brought her to Longmeadow to heal from her physical and mental traumas. After months of bandage changes, medications, special feed and stall rest, the vet declared Phoenix was finished with her rehab. She was given the down time she deserved and spent several months living a life of luxury with her friends in the pasture.
She was then adopted out to a professional trainer and was restarted under saddle. With her previous adopter, she had a solid WTC base and was reported to have potential in the dressage arena with continued training. Unfortunately, Phoenix was returned to Longmeadow when her owner found herself unable to care for her any longer.
After her return, we found that Phoenix became short-tempered and uncomfortable while being ridden. After many different tests and months of us working with vets trying to find out what was wrong, we found that she had an ovarian tumor, causing an influx of testosterone and the reason behind her behavioral issues. After a surgery removing her ovary, Phoenix healed nicely and has since made a full recovery, becoming the silly mare she once was! By removing the cancerous ovary, we ensured that she will not be at risk of cancer spreading. This type of cancer in horses is capsulated and the cells are not the type to spread to other areas. Phoenix is now officially tumor-free!
Phoenix is a playful, personable mare who thrives on being in work multiple days a week. She enjoys being interacted with, and her young mind is eager to be challenged and directed. This responsive mare is looking for an advanced rider/handler. She is not your weekend trail horse, as she requires a consistent work schedule of 4-5 days a week to keep her at her best. She enjoys taking long naps in her stall, but also requires daily turn out in a large pasture where she can let off some steam. Phoenix is currently barefoot and has solid
