Lil Red, owned by Jackie Lemon of Happy Hollow Miniature Horses in Texas, brought in $3,300 during an auction at the Cause For The Paws Benefit Concert for the Human Society of East Texas.
Jackie chose to donate Lil Red because he was small, good-natured and already had experience at shows and visiting local nursing homes. “When he was only four-months-old he walked in a local parade, so I thought he was the kind of horse that would do well no matter where he went,” Jackie said. “I knew Red would hopefully bring in a good donation, like maybe $1,200. I never dreamed he would bring in $3,300. The only thing that brought more, according to our local newspaper, was Blake Shelton’s guitar which brought in $4,000.”
Gina Rebich, of Lake Palestine, Texas, bought Lil Red in the Cause For The Paws auction, and promptly gave him to one of the youth that Jackie works with. “What an exciting ride this has been,” Jackie said.
