Update on Liam the GIANT Belgian Draft Horse saved from almost being sent to slaughter-3 weeks later
Episode 58
If you are new to our channel, I came across a post on Facebook from Bowie Texas Livestock of a giant Belgian gelding (18.1 hands tall) that had just come in from a farm in Kentucky. There was a chance that this horse came from the same farm our original 6 Belgian Draft horses came from. When I told Cory about this giant boy...much to my surprise he said we should rescue him. I ran it through the board members and we decided to save him!
Liam (Lot# 9714) will be the second rescued Belgian Draft horse under the Big Hoof Foundation. The original video of Liam from the livestock yard showed that he was having some issues with his front legs. When we picked him up on Monday April 3rd, he could barely walk!
On the way home from the livestock yard, we stopped at Claude Veterinary Hospital to have him evaluated. X-Rays showed that he had sever arthritis in his front leg and Dr. Amber was worried he was foundering. One of our other horses Cami, has sever arthritis as well. We take her to our other veterinarian (Mobile Veterinary Practice) for steroid injections and they have helped her tremendously. We made an appointment for Liam to see Dr. Waggoner at MVP to see what treatment she thought would be the best for him. This is an update video on Liam, his vet appointment at MVP and his first 3 weeks of retirement on the farm.
