Dawn was the caregiver for my thoroughbred horse - Biz - who was 32 years old and had arthritis when he arrived at Cottonwood Stables. He soon had a lovely pasture to wander around in, neighboring horses to nuzzle and rub heads with, and lots of tender loving care. The fungus on his back was finally cleared up by special shampooing and cooling fans in the stable stall.
Dawn even rebuilt the footing of my horse's stall with stone, sand, a mat, and lots of pine shavings to keep his feet dry so he wouldn’t get wet hooves and abscesses. She knew what to feed Biz, where to feed him, and when it was too hot outside, brought him into the stable area for lunch with the company. Biz was brushed and blanketed in the winter.
He was fed the right mixture of greens to keep his weight on - when his teeth weren't able to chew hay. Dawn was a caring angel for my horse while he was at Cottonwood Stables. If I had another horse and had to retire him, I would send him/her to Dawn for the senior years. Thanks, Dawn!
