Habanero Sinia - Our ‘Buba’ with the heart of gold
When I got the call, Buba was very, very ill. Young, sick and without any prospects. A large Mallorcan stud farm got in touch with me and asked if I could take a look at him.
4 years old, arrival: 2023
Breed: PRE
Sponsorship possible: 💛 Yes
So I travelled there and got to know the young stallion. A soul of a horse with great pain and wounds on his legs and face. A skin disease caused by fly larvae that is difficult to treat and eliminate in the long term… they had been trying to control this disease for 3 months without success. They asked me for help because they didn’t know what to do. I was allowed to take Buba home with me and then I consulted various clinics, veterinary practitioners and alternative solutions.
A long period of patience, treatments and repeated daily care began. My vet Maria Teresa Arboni stood by my side the whole time and together with the alternative medicine in our luggage we got the disease under control after a few months! And Buba fought. And healed.
Today he is completely healthy – only the scars on his legs and face are a reminder of what was. What remains is his gentle nature: a deeply loving, good-natured horse with a character that opens hearts.
‘He came full of wounds, remained full of love – and today wears his golden heart with pride.’
