Molly when she first arrived at the GHDT

MOLLY

Molly is new on our sponsorship list. She is a young filly who came to us with horrendous burns to her face and neck.

Due in part to her amazing will to live and in part to the wonderful care and nursing she has received from our staff, Anna and Samba in particular, she is making a steady recovery. As if her burns were not enough, she also fell ill with sleeping sickness and had tooth problems. All these things have been addressed and she is on the long slow journey of recovery.

Some of Molly's pictures are too horrific to show, so we are only showing the less gory ones.

Tallah shown after treatment	TALLAH Tallah was brought to our centre with a very badly broken leg. The Trustees made the decision to purchase him, in order to avoid the problems that were felt to be inevitable if he was returned home. Tallah has grown into a very powerful and good looking little stallion and we hope he will be able to do light duties for the Trust as a demonstration horse. If you would like to sponsor Tallah by post click here.


Mr. N'Jie	MR. N'JIE Mr. N'Jie was one of 7 horses who were 'gifted' to the Trust in appalling condition. The future was beginning to look bleak for him. Approximately a year after he came to the trust, the GHDT received a donation of Aloe Vera Gel from Forever Living Products. The transformation in the horse was little short of miraculous and within eight weeks he looked completely different. He is a quiet introverted little character and is very fond of his groom.

Elliot	ELLIOT Elliot was one of seven horses 'gifted' to the Trust in appalling condition. He is young and strong and made a good and uneventful recovery. He's a good looking horse and received training from our British manageress. He had been used to pulling a cart, and has done some draught work and some farm work for us. We are hoping that he will pull a small carriage for visitors to the centre. If you would like to sponsor Elliot by post click here.


Rhona at the GHDT	RHONA Rhona is a film star and appeared in a documentary made by BBC Scotland. She was brought to one of our village clinics and had been very badly beaten. She was also suffering from appalling harness wounds to her shoulders and was in a very sorry state. Rhona made an excellent recovery and is destined to become our demonstration donkey.

Chas	CHAS Chas is Rhona's foal and was purchased, with his mother, at the village market in poor condition. He was also featured in the documentary made by BBC Scotland and was named Chas after the cameraman. If you would like to sponsor Chas by post click here.
