Pumpkin with BoThis website is a story about a donkey called Pumpkin who has found so much needed love and care. The real story that reads like a fairy tale...

Pumpkin used to be a neglected donkey left on a grassy place all year round, with only occasional hay and no regular hoof care. All of this, including my discovery of her insulin resistance condition, resulted for her in painful laminitis (inflammation of the hooves caused by sugar from grass containing fructans, polymers of sugar fructose) and founder (rotation of coffin bone caused by separation of coffin bone and hoof wall because of inflammated laminae).

And even after several years of my trying to do everything possible to help Pumpkin, her hooves are still far away from being perfect with tilted coffin bone inside threatening to penetrate the sole, visible on the x-ray pictures in Galleries page.

I hope that despite all Pumpkin's health problems, including founder, laminitis, uveitis and insulin resistance, there will be a positive change in her conditions with devoted care and proper treatment. You can read more about this, and other issues, including equine insulin resistance treatment with 100% all natural herbal and vitamins medicine Heiro™, on my News page and throughout this website.

Thanks for visiting and enjoy the story.
