Ontario, OR is Eastern Oregon. I-84 runs pretty close to it. It's a pretty long trip.
Regardless, I can offer a donation for her transport as well.

I have pictures of this mare I will post in a minute. The leg wounds are very bad, but she is in otherwise decent shape. She does need immediate vet care. We are working on scheduling the shipper but I am now hearing that I-84 is closed.

This is a pretty reputable shipper, I am sure as soon as they can work it into the schedule, and when the weather cooperates, they'll get her onboard. I feel confident that pretty soon the old grey mare will be much better than she used to be

Old? She's only 7!

It could be just the lack of care, but she sure looks older than 7 I was more paraphrasing the song, anyway

At least it's not fly season ... she needs a trim, too. Does anyone here on this board have any friends or acquaintances out in that area who might be willing to FOSTER her for a short period while we work out transport, and care for her per vet's instructions? It looks like Nampa ID is about an hour away, and probably the same for Baker City...

That is a nice mare once she gets fixed up!
I need a horse brought from Bend up to here so if I can help subsidize the trip by having that one picked up and paying for it, please let me know!

Is she under vet care now? Or is the owner still not doing anything?

Hi - finally made it here. =)
I was forwarded the information about this mare - to see if I could help. I didn't realize her exact location until I got on the board. If she were going north/south, I could help relay - but she's a bit far for me.
If we found a foster/rescue situation in Idaho - would that work? Or does she have to go to Renton? I may have a lead on a solution in Idaho. But I'll keep networking and trying to find SOME (or ANY) way to help this poor girl.

ps - someone has asked if the rescue I'm talking about is Mustang Hearts. (I guess they come to mind when you mention Idaho - but I haven't worked with them before. ) It's NOT - although for the life of me I can't remember their name. I'll try to find it asap.
