One of these hooves is not like the others
It has been two years since Doro Lohmann met Dolly the donkey, but she still remembers how she was struck by the sheer neglect of the little horse had endured.
"It made me sick," she said. "I remember thinking:" How is it still standing? "
Lohmann and colleague Julie Lawson had just begun their organization Silent Voice of Equine Rescue in Richfield Lohmann went to visit a couple who wanted to go to a donkey.

So it was very exciting for me .... my stand clogs very clean and as much time as I need to teach the horses to put their foot there and also keep it there for a while. First I need to save the leg, and click to build understanding for him than this ...
