Abandoned & Disabled Miniature Horse Now Lives Indoors With 3 Dog Best Friends
When Faith Smith found out that six-week-old Peabody the miniature horse, may be deaf, blind, and unable to walk, she wasn’t swayed. When she was told that a veterinarian had advised his first family to euthanize him, she still didn’t change her mind. Meet Peabody, a six-week-old miniature horse who was abandoned by his mother because he was too small.
"I'll keep him forever, but I hope he gets bigger so he can go out with other horses. Otherwise, he's just gonna be a house horse," says Faith. While his previous family believed he was blind and deaf, only one of these conditions has been confirmed to be true. Peabody can see perfectly fine, but he is indeed deaf. Despite this, he is thriving in his new life as a happy house horse, and is surrounded by so much love. Potty training is the latest hurdle for this adorable animal, but with everything he has already overcome and accomplished, he will surely master that too.
