At the Fawor Foundation we get horses with sore bodies and minds. Some come off of the racetrack or out of the show ring while others have had rough handling in back yard situations.

Tut was brought to the Fawor Foundation by a nice lady who got him out of a bad situation but sadly didn’t have the time for him. Tut is incredibly sweet and we’re so glad he’s here because he needs lots of TLC. We recently had his hooves trimmed but Tut will need much more supportive care before he is ready to be adopted.
Tut came to us with a sore back, and will definitely need more than one session with the chiropractor. In addition to the hunter’s bumps which you can see, Tut also has soreness in his wither area, and a scar on the base of his tail. We believe he may have flipped over backwards at some time, but we really can’t be certain. The Fawor Foundation does more than just feed and house these lovely Arabians in need of a second chance.

Below is a list of essential expenses for the Foundation horses.
Hoof trim - $35-50
Dental- $125-225
Chiropractor- $75-85 (per session)
Routine shots- $75-150
We believe in rehabilitating the horse’s body and mind. Tut gets nervous when the rope is flicked around his legs, so we work a lot with desensitization. As per the vet with his sore back we’re not working Tut in a saddle yet. He is a lovely Egyptian bred gelding who truly wants to please.
Donating to the Fawor Foundation is a tax deductable way to help Tut and all of the awesome Arabs that just need that second chance! You only have three and a half weeks left to get your 2010 tax deductions!
