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!

I notice that we are losing posts from the beginning of this thread that are more than 10 years old 😞
Has anyone by any chance archived this thread as they did for earlier ones?
Deno has celebrated his 10th anniversary of arriving at Creekyland.
Virtually everyone who was involved with his initial rescue appears to have lost interest him so I think it is probably time to close this thread.
Time to say goodbye - “thanks for everything”
Oh my goodness, Creeky, I for one would be so sad not to see your lovely photos anymore. I know that there isn't much traffic here now but yours is the only thread I look at now and it's so lovely to see the e-mail notifications that you've put another post up.
What can we do to convince you to stay? 
Please keep posting. You don't have to do it often, I know you have a busy time of it but please know you're appreciated. Very much. 
Anyone who visited Creekyland to see Deno will I'm sure remember Phoebo, our dear old fellow. Unfortunately he got a cancerous tumour and we had to have him put to sleep today.
He had a good life 🙂
While I'm here I thought I'd post a few photos of the horses for those who keep asking for them.
The first is of Tally taken by a friend of my daughter for a photography competition.
Oh Creeky, I'm so sorry to read this. What a lovely dog he was. We've lost dogs and it hurts so much. It's a testament to how much they were loved I guess, but it's not much of a consolation at the time.
As you say, Phoebo had a wonderful life and a very peaceful exit. {Creeky famly}
More horsey photos, how lovely. I've missed them but wouldn't have pestered you for them. Fantasticphoto of Tally.
I will be gazing adoringly at each and every one though!

A few more, taken by Millie, one of the girls who help out with Deno and the gang.
And finally one I took of the gang
Those lucky horses! So symmetrical too... 
Thank you, Creeky (and Millie)
Oh bless him, Deno looking all regal...
Thank you, Creeky
