Tag 7477 - Little John

Meet Little John, Tag 7477. At only 5 years old, this little man ended up in the kill lot. His back feet were so overgrown that it made walking difficult. He was struggling with his weight and we were very afraid that his coffin bones had rotated.

After a visit from both our vet and farrier - complete with x-rays and a start to a long process of trims — we found out the best news — no rotation in his coffin bone and no issues with ligaments. Little John is expected to make a full recovery!!!

This little boy has absolutely stolen my heart. When he first came to our farm, he would run away from me. Now he comes running to me!! He didn’t know what a treat was or how to take it from my hand. It has only been a few weeks and he is coming out of his shell! He has such a goofball personality! He is a companion to Rosie and just a joy to be around.

Little John is home — his forever home.
