From Humane Society of Missouri - Longmeadow

Juno is an OTTB that came to us after a tractor-trailer accident in October 2020. She, along with multiple other horses, was on the way to slaughter when the trailer overturned in the rain. Juno was one of the surviving horses who came to Longmeadow, where she had her wounds treated and began rehabilitation!After the accident, Juno spent several months at the ranch having some well-deserved downtime. She was restarted slowly by our trainer and showed amazing potential. She was calm and level-headed, not to mention beautiful! She went to a few schooling shows with our trainer and her team and had positive experiences. She was adopted in 2021 but returned almost two years later due to her adopter’s health.After her return to Longmeadow, Juno’s adopter shared that she had developed some vices under saddle that we had not previously seen before her adoption. These behaviors were likely due to inconsistent riding at her adoptive home, due to her owner’s health. Once back in training at the Ranch, Juno also began showing signs of lameness. Multiple vet exams were conducted, and while therapeutic front shoes were recommended to improve her comfort, she continued to show discomfort…

In the rescue's own words, as they published it.
