Gypsy and her young foal, Carmel were rescued from a feedlot in Fallon, NV where they were scheduled to be shipped to slaughter in Canada within a day.

UPDATE: 6/30/06 Little Carmel is starting to approach us and will almost let us touch her. She is very interested in people and will almost eat out of a bucket in our hands. Her mother, Gypsy, is still very wary, but she is coming around and does not run as fast or as far away from us when we enter the pasture.

UPDATE: 8/17/06 Gypsy and Carmel are doing great. Little Carmel's adoption is pending and she will go to her new home when she is ready to leave her mother. Carmel now loves to be pet and scratched!

UPDATE: 10/1/06 Little Carmel has been adopted by Augustine of Las Vegas! She now has a bright and busy future ahead of her!
