Foal Tubby is only two weeks old when he is separated from his mother. The loss breaks Tubby’s heart and he loses all courage to face life.
Health problems with his teeth and hooves make the situation worse.
Things are not looking good for the little one, but this changes when Stacy appears in his life.
At Stacy’s ranch
Stacy adopts Tubby and takes him to her ranch.
Here he not only lives with his new human mum, but also with other foals and some dogs.
Whether Tubby will ever regain his will to live is questionable. The pain of his loss is too deep inside him.
The poor foal is barely aware of his surroundings, doesn’t socialise with the other animals and refuses to eat or drink.
Love sown
Stacy instinctively understands what is wrong with Tubby. He simply misses his mum. The woman does everything she can to give the little one all the love she can.
Every day she cuddles Tubby, talks to him gently and reassures the foal that he will never be alone again.
Of course, she also takes care of the problems with his hooves and teeth.
Joy of life harvested
Where so much love is sown, there is always a harvest. Step by step, little Tubby regains his will to live and finally his zest for life.
First, he begins to eat and drink again himself. Then he makes friends with the dogs on the ranch, who become his favourite playmates.
Anyone who sees Tubby chasing across the grass today can hardly believe that just a short time ago this foal was in the depths of despair.
„Hip hip hooray! Tubby is on the mend again and jumping for joy“,
user Yvonne Pagan summarises his transformation perfectly in the comments.
