I got him as a rescue due to his very bad feet. They had not been trimmed in over a year and he looked as if he had foundered at one time. I was working with a farrier and he was getting some what better and the farrier thought in time Dusty could recover. I had some people adopt him and they really loved him...... but his feet started to decline again. i had my vet go out and he thinks the bones had rotated and that he was in a lot of pain. He told me he would most likely never be sound and it would be a lot of time , money and pain for him to try and get him anywhere close to being sound.... if at all. So i had to let him go. It is such a shame that someone could do this to such a beautiful horse. He was a kind soul and loved attention and it breaks my heart........... RIP Dusty, i hope you can run like the wind where you are now......
