Loretta came to us just before Christmas of 2012 with the rest of the Sand Wash Basin mares that were still at the Canon City holding facility left over from the 2008 gather. They were all five years old at the time, having been gathered as babies. Loretta was in training for a few months and ultimately we decided that she would be best suited for life on the sanctuary pasture, where she now lives with some of the others she grew up with.
