Our Sunday morning at RESQ began on a rather horrific note as we woke up to images of a Marwari horse sitting in a pool of her own blood on the highway. We were told that she jumped out of a moving truck in panic and severely injured herself. Instead of getting her any medical aid, her owner/transporter decided to abandon the scene. She was transported to the RESQ Centre in Pune via RESQ Lonavala team and @rupeshgarade where her treatment began without wasting another moment. She has been named Sophie. It absolutely broke our hearts to see this gentle soul thrashing around in agony. Sophie has had massive amounts of internal bleeding. We suspect that she may have sustained trauma to her hip and spine as well as there is not much movement or sensation in her hind legs. Our immediate prerogative was to administer pain relief and ensure that she was at ease. At this point we aren’t even sure if Sophie will survive, such is the extent of her injuries; but we owe it to her to try.
