Yesterday Teri (Terolyn Horse Rescue) transported Dealer to Colorado State University Veterinary Teaching Hospital to have his eye rechecked.  We have been working with a wonderful team from the CSU Ophthalmology Department: Katherine Wotman DVM, Brittany Martabano DVM, and Sami Pederson DVM.  They have been great.  Yesterday due to Covid 19 protocol we could not go with Dealer into the hospital for a recheck.  The last pictures shared are from a visit last year.  After evaluation and team consultation it was determined that it is best for Dealer to have a surgery to remove the tumor from his left eye and hopefully save his eye and vision.  This will be scheduled as soon as the Covid restrictions allow.  Until then our focus is to fundraise to cover expenses estimated to be about $2000.  We will keep you posted!

Dealer Eye surgery

Dealer was transported to Colorado State University by Terolyn "Teri" "Horse rescue LLC." for a check up on a squamous cell carcinoma tumor in his left eye. Dr. Wotman and her team determined that the best and necessary treatment needs to be surgery to remove the tumor and hopefully help Dealer keep his eye. It is estimated cost will be about $2,000 to get the surgery. The surgery will be scheduled as soon as the Covid-19 protocol allows. Edwards Foundation for Rescued Animals is starting a fund raiser.

Just Serve youth Project

 Just Serve is a LDS group of wonderful young people who choose a project to help some community organizations.  They were not deterred by this BIG pile of gravel that needed to be spread!!!!
 After all the gravel was spread they still had enough energy to walk the animals.
 Everyone chooses an animal to walk
 All work done.!!!!  Popsicles, doughnuts, and water  to celebrate a job well done.  Thank you Just Serve Youth!!!!!

Eagle Scout candidate Camden comes to Edwards Foundation to get information on projects.

                               We look forward to finding out what project he chooses.

Cart Fun

           Spencer tries out his Eagle Scout project cart with a little help from safety-man Richard.
                                                                     These ladies approve.


                            Spencer's project gets an A plus rating!  All approve.

Spencer completes his Eagle Scout Project

                                     Bill the goat gets ready for his new job of pulling a cart.
 Spencer, the Eagle Scout candidate, checks the weight distribution and "pull ability" of this beautiful blue cart he designed and made as part of his Eagle scout project.  Hercules wonders if he needs some help.

Second part of Spencer's project was finding and painting big spools as part of the goat's play area.
Thank you Spencer for choosing The Edwards Foundation for your project!
