HORSE

Oak

Oak is our most senior animal, at approximately 27 years old.  He came to the sanctuary after being rescued from a lot in Tennessee.  He was malnourished, had a broken hip and two many other signs of neglect. His owner offered him up for a low price and, without hesitation, he was rescued.  As a senior horse, Oak has many of the ailments that go along with age, but with careful management of his diet and activity, he is really thriving.  He sticks close to his best friend Bayou, which helps him feel safe.  The staff and volunteers at BRRB all have a soft spot for Oak, and we make sure to let him know how loved he is.
