Maria meet Sarge Sunday, the two connected immediately. Sarge has a way of sniffing out people and approaching them slowly, you speak to him so he can locate you and stand still so he can touch you. He seems to love touching people, there is something loving and gentle about him. He is alert, sometimes anxious. He is a prey animal, it is especially difficult for them to be alert to danger if they can’t see. You can see that he has other senses that are very powerful – smell, sound, instinct.

I felt a strong connection to him as well, I wondered if we could possibly bring him to Bedlam Farm, but then reality struck. Not a good idea for us, and I doubt Blue Star would ever give him up. We are getting a horse in a few weeks, that is enough for us. I will stay in touch with this guy, though, there is something special about him. He and Maria had several long conversations.

You can help Sarge spend the rest of his life in comfort and dignity by helping Blue Star Equiculture’s Saving Sarge fund. We are halfway there.
