Deno (proper name De Novo) was adopted by FHG posters in 2005 when one of them, Shebalator, rescued him from slaughter.
Then - 700lbs underweight with a broken jaw and multiple other ills.
2008 - still struggling with sarcoids but finally fit enough to have a light rider up for the first time so he could
join his mates on a jaunt round the local lanes
2009 - due to sheb’s declining health, a new home was sought for Deno.
A very brave ebayer named upthecreekyetagain ( very apt name I think you will agree) agreed to take him on.
So, now Deno lives in Surrey with the Creeky family, plus 3 lovely mares. He has 5 acres of grass and orchards to roam in and is very happy.
His sarcoids still remain a problem, but a new vet is investigating them further to decide on the best course of palliative care.
Visits can be arranged, please contact Creeky for more info.
Deno is reliant on fundraising and donations for his food, medicines and all the things that make his world that bit nicer.
His in-depth story can be found on his website http://www.denorescuedhorse.co.uk/
and there is more info (including how you can join in and help him) on Elphaba’s Me Page.
This replaces his previous diary thread that had become too cumbersome to load.
And to mark the start of the next chapter of his life.
New Deno supporters always welcome!

The grazing has got really bad but we’re lucky to know a friendly farmer who is letting us use a 5 acre field just up the road - normally he’d get a second cut of hay from it but won’t this year.
Deno and Posh will be staying with us until Deno’s leg is better but Tilly and Tally have moved.
Well the vet has been and it’s relatively good news - it is an abscess that is causing the problem - the vet has opened it up and drained out all the pus - we’ve put a dry poultice on the hoof and covered with a boot. He’s walking better already.
has won a prize from the local feed store for being the most deserving veteran - a sack of senior feed.
Oh my gosh.. was it not 'posh' enough for her? We should club together and get 'Horse Couture by Prada', perhaps? So funny... 
Wishing all at Creeky Horse Camp a lovely bank holiday weekend... what you have to put up with, with those awkward (but adorable) equines... 
Thanks for the lovely photos, Creeky, they always make me smile so much. Living the life of Riley those horsies are! 
Another adventure today - phone call at 5:30 from my daughter telling us that it looked like the horses had escaped - their picture was on Facebook.
Telephoned the police to find they had been herded into someone’s driveway just up the road.
All hands on deck as our neighbours and a “horsey” friend from up road zeroed in on the troublesome foursome. Getting them back was thankfully easy as the police escorted us back to Creekyland.
It turns out our neighbours had cut down a tree on our boundary and damaged the fence - now temporarily repaired with electric fencing.
Looking at them now butter wouldn’t melt in their mouths!
Ha ha Creeky... 
I don't know WHY you would think that gettig those horses back would be in any way difficult? They know where the best karrits an a ready supply of Polo mints are. They're horeses, not stupid.
Happy New Year to all at Creekyland, especially those four-hooved varmints of yours.
Our vet has used a picture of Tilly and Tally as the ‘header’ on their Facebook page.
