How many times have you
seen a horse and rider in need of rescue and people unsure of what to do? Would
you know who to call, or what to do in a life threatening situation to make sure
they were safely rescued? With millions of horses throughout the world, it is
inevitable that some of them will
need to be rescued from places like ravines, ditches, collapsed barns,
overturned trailers, riding trails, tracks, show rings, or injured in a field.
Now for the first time people can be trained how to do horse rescues
using "Lucky" the
Horse mannikin.
"Lucky" is a new life-sized horse mannikin used to safely learn
hands-on training of emergency search and rescue techniques. "Lucky"
the Horse mannikin has articulating limbs, a tail feature as an attachment
point, realistic training weight and a height of 15 hands. It will accept
standard horse harnesses, glides and gear. "Lucky" can be used in all
weather, mud, water and is designed for training indoors or out. It is
specifically designed to train emergency search and rescue techniques to fire
and police departments, SAR units, military, government agencies, animal
control, humane organizations, veterinarians and equine groups. "Lucky
" was developed because of the effort of many people who were concerned
about horses, how they are rescued, the techniques used and available
equipment.

Testimonials
"As
seasoned veterans of numerous LAR incidents, we have used Rescue
Critters!® brand "Lucky" the Horse mannikin extensively in our
training course to develop the skills of emergency professionals and horse
owners for Technical Large Animal Rescue. Lucky allows us to place the
students in scenarios that recreate the challenges of real-life LAR incidents,
on-road or off-road. The feel and articulation of Lucky closely simulates
a sedated horse. Students are able to learn positioning and perfect the
skills necessary for the application of rescue equipment in a safe, efficient
manner." -

"As
it is with any new technology, it is not just something new added to the world,
but it is a new world entirely. I looked at all of the people involved, saw the
precise skills put into action to save one human and one horse and watched the
world turn ever so slightly in the direction of life for horses, who in the past
would have been euthanized. And in that shift for the horses comes a shift for
humans toward a more meaningful and compassionate society."

Barbara
Clarke, Director of DreamCatcher Wild Horse & Burro Sanctuary
"Lucky"
will be a way for people to learn real skills and do the best job possible in
rescuing horses and people. The rope techniques that the Foxs’ have developed
can be taught to trainers who in turn can train others and pass on the
skills."
