BEHS 290 – Miss Beulah

Beulah came to BEHS from a neglect case. When she arrived, she was underweight and lame. She moved into a foster home who provided the best care for her, but her lameness continued. Veterinary examinations revealed she had suffered a fracture to her knee before coming to BEHS that had not been properly cared for and she had foundered in both front hooves. She could barely walk and her veterinarian recommended that we let her go. Although we long to make every horse better and fix every problem, sometimes the only thing we can do is free them from their pain.
