Gage

Administrative and Wellness Fee: $1000.00

Gage, along with two other horses (one a miniature), was seized by Kansas law enforcement in May 2023.

He was a Body Condition Score of a 1, with a horrific lice infestation and heavy internal parasite issues.  In addition, his penis was damaged (likely from his malnutrition) and had lost all nerve sensation to the glans.  He could no longer retract it.

His nutritional recovery and elimination of internal and external parasites was completed within a month.  But he did require amputation of his penis, which extended his recovery time.  Fortunately, he did very well post-op.

Gage is reportedly a money-winning roping horse, which when he became lame resulted in him being "thrown away". Gage sustained a torn meniscus in his right hock, as a result he is only sound for riding at the walk.
