Tatanka Spirit & Red Dawn

    
(click to view bigger)

Both were found and rescued on 6-28-04, from the same feedlot outside of Cave Creek, AZ off to slaughter. They were not wanted as they were different breeds and did not match.

Tatanka came with many trust issues and a terrible eye infection that had threatened the loss of his eye. He has come along way and has the heart
and soul of an old Buffalo.

Red Dawn chose her name from the many red desert colors of Dawn.
She blessed us for her last 2.5 years of life before she crossed over and was mother to all the horses here.
