I'd now like to introduce you to Wilma, a blind 21 year old (in 2010) Standardbred mare, who had a very important job previous to coming to Horses' Haven. She was a blood donor at Michigan State University. Wilma served her fellow horses for many years in this capacity, and when it was determined that it was time to retire her from this duty, rather than euthanize her, the folks at State wanted to find her a place where she could live out her remaining years in comfort and with people to love and fuss over her. So, they decided Horses' Haven was the place and donated her. I'll bet you never really thought much about there being horses like Wilma who did that for other horses so they could live. There are probably lots of horses throughout Michigan who owe their lives to Wilma, and from one horse to another I'd like to extend my thanks to Wilma for all the good she's done throughout her useful life. Wilma is a very sweet girl and is looking for sponsors to spoil her and make her golden years special.
