Freddily Bear

Resident

Sponsor me please! No one has EVER helped this horse in any way and he has been here over a year.

Freddily Bear is a thoroughbred off the track a million years ago.  He was also a winning show horse and a wonderful best friend to a lady who loved horses more than anything in the world.  He a 1982 gelding with COPD. 

Freddy lost his beloved owner when she fell out of a hay loft, was hospitalized for months, recovered somewhat and then tragically lost the fight to live almost a year later.  He came to us bewildered and feeling very alone.

Freddily Bear, as we call him is a fine gentleman.  I had to hand feed him a few of his meals and just keep telling him that he is okay now and he is understood.  Being a thoroughbred, he is particularly sensitive.  Add in the fact that he is 27 and knows more than many humans do at that age and you will understand his concern.  Horses are very aware of what is going on.  Aware when they are loved.  Aware when they are discarded.  Aware when their human soul mate dies.

Freddy Bear, as he has been dubbed by adoring care givers, is a 28 yr old thoroughbred gelding.  His career spans over a quarter of a century beginning at the racetrack, showing through the hunters and jumpers and ending as a personal pet and riding companion of a wonderful woman.  His future was set until the day of the horrible tragedy.  He watched as his owner tripped and fell out of the hay loft while trying to get him his breakfast.  She had made no provisions for Freddy in a will, so he was brought into Amaryllis to try and find support or a home.  Neither has been found in over a year. 

 Here is Freddy's Personals ad!

Handsome, kind mature thoroughbred gentleman seeks sensitive, mature companion for long walks and quiet philosophical talks.  Healthy, adjusted, sound of mind and body, but lonely after being widowed.  Please contact Amaryllis and ask about making a date with me!  I would love to talk about the old days when life was grand and I was winning races on the track!  I am available to adopt on the sanctuary I currently reside at in Bridgehampton or I may move to your farm if my special requirements can be met!  My Amaryllis family is on hand to assist me every step of my life, they just need a little feed money!  I breath absolutely fine now that I am turned out 24hrs a day and my legs NEVER swell anymore either!
