See Me on TV!

July 16th, 2010 10:37am

Tomorrow (Saturday, 7/17) Rascal will be on Channel 9 News with CHR's Executive Director, Judy Smetana, between 8 and 8:30am. How cool is that? Judy's going to tell a bit of his story, let viewers know that his situation is like that of many horses, and encourage viewers to donate and support CHR. Rascal's the type of guy that likes to give back, so this worked out perfectly. Once the story airs on television, it will be available to view online. We'll be sure to post the link for you once it's available and we'll let you all know about Rascal's experience going to downtown Denver in next week's blog.

In the meantime, there continues to be good news about Rascal's recovery. He has now gained a total of 112 lbs! His weight is at 944 lbs. The sore on his hip is healing very quickly. Rascal wears a fancy fly sheet that keeps it nice and clean. This morning he had his teeth floated by the vet. This dental work should definitely help him be able to ingest food more easily and thus recover quicker. We had to wait to have this work done on his teeth until he'd gained some weight because the vet needed to give him a mild sedative. Now he's all woken back up and waiting out by the gate for his next meal (see photo above).

Rascal wanted to take this opportunity too to thank his sponsors. He tells us that he feels so flattered. TV appearances and sponsors. Life is good!
