Miracle Man, the colt that was rescued from the brink of death hanging from a sling back in January, has recovered and is now up for adoption.

The colt’s owner suspended Miracle Man from the rafters of her barn with a sling in an attempt to get him off an injured leg. He was rescued by Panhandle Equine Rescue in Molino.

He is totally rehabilitated,” said PER President Diane Lowery. ” He is eight months old and will tie, load, clip, bathe and stand for the farrier. He is very quiet and easy to handle.”

The colt, which is half Arabian and half Quarter Horse, has a $300 adoption fee. For more information, visit PER’s web site by clicking here.

Iris Rose Fortner, 51, of De Soto Road, Cantonment, was charged with felony animal cruelty in connection with the case. She plead not guilty in March according to court records and is scheduled for trial in July.
