Adopter Whiteboy
Krydsede raser · Ukendt
Dette er Whiteboy, muligvis den værste navngivne hest i verden – i hvert fald på vores finca. Da han ankom til os, blev vi bedt om at vente 10 dage på, at hans pas skulle komme frem; det er meget sjældent, at vi redder en registreret og lovlig hest. Så vi ventede tålmodigt uden at kende hans navn. Vi kaldte ham "den hvide dreng", mens vi ventede på at finde ud af hans officielle navn på hans papirer. Og ganske rigtigt, 10 dage senere kom hans pas, og der fandt vi ud af, at han ikke var værd at have et navn! Han havde været registreret i 13 år med tre forskellige hjem, men ingen navn. På dette tidspunkt var Whiteboy allerede gået i fastlås, og det var sådan, han fik sit navn. Vi kender ikke hele historien bag Whiteboy eller hvorfor han blev glemt og passerede fra person til person. Han har masser af kærlighed at give og giver også meget tilbage. Men desværre for ham betragtes han som "grim". Han lider af en lidelse, hvor han producerer for meget arvæv, hvilket resulterer i knuder og buler overalt på kroppen. Vi ved ikke, hvad der er sket med ham, der har forårsaget alle disse skader. Han har en knude langs rygsøjlen, som gør det svært at sætte en almindelig sadel på ham, hvilket måske har bidraget til hans "værdiløshed". Vi kan kun gisne om årsagerne til, at han ikke længere var eftertragtet. Da vi fik ham, var han sulten, svag, havde meget lange poter og var meget bange for mennesker. Han var så bange for at blive slået, at han løb på adrenalin og frygt for altid at gøre, hvad han blev fortalt. Han har talrige sundhedsmæssige komplikationer; han er meget følsom over for miljøet – støv påvirker hans øjne, kold luft kan få ham til at hoste, og han har også behov for regelmæssig tandbehandling samt behandling for sand i maven. Selv med alle sine særheder er han en fantastisk hest med meget at give, og han har allerede på sin korte tid hos os lært at slappe af og leve sit liv roligt og fredeligt.

This is Whiteboy, possibly the worst named horse in the world, certainly at our finca. When he arrived with us we were told to wait 10 days for his passport to arrive, it's very rare for us to rescue a registered legal horse. So we waited patiently not knowing his name. We called him ‘the white boy' while we waited to find out from his papers his registered name. Sure enough 10 days later his passport came and in it we found out that he wasn't worth a name! Registered for 13 years with 3 homes but no name. By this point Whiteboy had stuck and this is how he came to get his name. We don't know the full history of Whiteboy or why he was forgotten about and passed from person to person. He has a lot of love and gives a lot. But sadly for him he is considered “ugly”. He has a condition which he produces to much scar tissue and it results in lumps and bumps everywhere. We don't know what happened to him to get all of these injuries. He has one along his spine making him difficult to fit a regular saddle, this may have added to his “worthlessness”. We can only guess the reasons he was no longer wanted. When we got him he was starving, weak, very long feet and very scared of people. Scared he was going to be hit, running on adrenaline and fear to always do as he is told. He has numerous health complications, he is very sensitive to his environment, to much dust effects his eyes, cold air and he can cough, he also needs regular dental treatment and treatment for sand in the gut. Even with all of his quirks, he is an amazing horse with a lot to give and he has already in his short time with us learnt how to relax and live his life calm and peacefully.
