STAR . . . Upon arrival.
Star, rescued by Madison County November, 2008 came to STAR Ranch for rehabilitation. His Mother had died and he only had this miserable stall to live in. His dad, Big Boy, lived in the stall next door. Despite all efforts, Big Boy could not be saved. We promised Big Boy as we let him go, that we would take good care of his son, Star.. Star was like a ferral child. He needed to learn to 'talk' equus, and did from an old mare and learned the ways of life from an old gelding. He was soon running, jumping, eating and enjoying life with his new herd. He learned to load into a trailer, walk on a lead, put on a halter and munch cookies. He proved to be exceptionally smart and willing to please. We believe he knew he had his Dad to live up to.
