Donations Sought to Help Rescued Miniature Horses

Two emaciated miniature horses have been taken to the Big Sky Farm in Dacula.

The Big Sky Farm in Dacula is asking for the public's help in caring for two miniature horses that were rescued earlier this month.

We went to look at 2 little minis last Friday,,, at the request of the owner that no longer wanted them. We were horrified of what we saw when we arrived. Both minis are 18 months old. The sister is skin and bones, but find the little boy down and too weak to stand. He is literally a sack of bones and long long hair.
