Rusty got his name from a very sad event. Animal lovers had bought foals free and wanted to place them. When no one was interested in the animals, they stayed where they were. The animal lovers got into massive financial problems, so that in the meantime they could no longer guarantee their feeding. We were asked to help and initially sent a delivery of hay. When this did not bring any relief, we were asked to take him in. When Rusty arrived, his tail and mane were full of Ruster curls.
