Lass is walking today because people shared what they had.
When professionals recommended euthanasia, a community stepped in instead. Donated arena sand gave her a soft place to rest. Chiropractic care supported her comfort. A remarkably patient farrier spent as much as two hours working with her. That's what collaboration looks like here.
