Ophellia was rescued before entering the slaughter pipeline in April 2026. She was found 3-legged lame apparently from an older injury along with exacerbations from those who left her neglected and abused.

She was very scared and needed time to decompress in a safe environment before the vet could provide a fuller evaluation.

Detailed information from the veterinary exam will be listed here once the report is received.

Ophelia was without options for an improved quality of life due to the extent of her acute, long-term lameness and other health issues discovered. She was humanely euthanized in a quiet, calm environment.

It is disgusting and grossly inhumane that this mare was thrown aside at some low end auction to end up within a short time frame of heading to slaughter.
