ANSELM LITTLE BOY

Anselm Little Boy was rescued from a Kill Buyer in California. We were tipped off that he was there and we immediately offered to take him and get him back to good weight and health. He was coughing and his legs were covered in scars from horse tripping and his body was also very scarred from what looked like rope marks where he had been beaten.

He was named Anselm but after he was quarantined and brought to us we realized how tiny and delicate he was and he was nicknamed Little Boy. He really is a pushy, cheeky, and food-obsessed horse as he was obviously pretty emaciated when he was rescued but we forgive him all of that as he truly is one of the sweetest most affectionate mustangs we have ever met. He has gone on to bond deeply with the horse he came in with named Addie. #skydoganselm

 Mustangs & Burros Need your help

In addition to supporting our work by donating, becoming a patron on Patreon, or sponsoring a Skydog, there are several important pieces of legislation to protect American equines currently moving through Congress. It only takes a few minutes to contact your Rep and Senators and urge them to support these bills:

The Wild Horse & Burro Protection Act of 2023 (H. R. 3656) This bill will prohibit the use of helicopters or fixed-wing aircraft in the management of wild mustangs and burros on public lands, and require a report on humane alternatives to current management practices.
