Willow

Belgian Sorrel Draft

Birthday
December 2014

A Little Bit About Me...
Willow was rescued from a working farm, where she was left emaciated, with strap marks on her body and a gash on her leg that had become infected. Her back left leg was swollen to four or five times its normal size. Despite all she had been through, Willow was determined to survive and thrive.

Willow's bright eyes are one of her most striking features, as they seem to look right into you. She's a compromising queen, and always willing to adjust her routine if someone is in her stall and she has to go to a different one. Her intelligence is also noticeable, as she understands exactly what you are asking her to do.

Your purchase help us rescue and care for forgotten, neglected and abused farm animals that come to live at our FHF Sanctuary. Follow their transformations here.
