Appaloosa - Large - Young - Female - Horse - DKA Miss Lady Bug
Description
Hi, my name is DKA Miss Lady Bug. I am a 4 year old registered Appaloosa, born May 12, 2005. My sire is DBA Domino Oreo and my dam is DKA Technical Design. I am 15 hands tall. I have a calm, easy going personality. I am friendly and can be petted in the pasture. That is not always the case with PMU horses. For more information on the PMU program, go to www.pmurescue.org. Miss Lady Bug's adoption fee is $1,200. This fee covers transportation from Canada, border fees, vaccines and other expenses incurred when she was brought to Texas along with helping to pay her expenses while she has been at Hope for Horses. For more information on how to adopt this wonderful little girl, visit our website www.hopeforhorses.com or email us at info@hopeforhorses.com. PMU and Premarin stand for PREgnant MARes URINe. Premarin, once the top selling drug, is a hormone replacement therapy drug given to menopausal and osteoporosis patients. Due to modern research that finds Premarin causes cancer in humans, the demand for it is going down. About 80 percent of the PMU farms have closed. At one point there was about 45,000 mares used in this program. That means the farms that just closed down have thousands of horses they desperately want to get rid of. Many will end up in the slaughter house if we dont save them. We also have the foals from the remaining farms that we need to find homes for also. The cost to rescue them includes feeding them in Canada until shipment, purchase price, vaccinations (VEWT, Rabies, Flu/Rhino, and West Nile), deworming, border fees, transport (from Canada), and care until adopted. This is one of the many PMU horses from Canada that has been shipped to Texas for adoption.
