Rosebud's Story

Rosebud was purchased at a local auction in 2009. She was very thin and sad. She was turned down at the auction and we purchased her in the parking lot. It took us almost a year to get Rosebud’s weight up to an acceptable level. It was determined that she was likely in her 30’s and she had very few teeth left to chew her food. She gained weight eating a mixture of Senior feed, beet pulp, and alfalfa cubes four times daily. Even when she was thin, her personality shone through and she represented the rescue at many local events until her passing in 2014.

Rosebud was the beginning of Central Virginia Horse Rescue and she continues to live on in our memories and hearts.
