Had a great ride with Rizzo in the arena and on the trail today ♡♡♡ more videos and pictures to come when I get home from my trip.

Rizzo had a great weekend at the show. Her foot has not been causing her problems! She did so well and we couldn't be happier with her progress in life. Every rescue deserves a chance♡♡

Goodluck everyone competing at the ATFO this year. I hope lots of horses find new homes.

Today's Technical Results

08/18/2024

Thank you to everyone who has donated to Rizzos surgery. She is doing great with her fancy padded shoe and has shown no discomfort! We are hoping and praying this is the end of her foot troubles! Rizzo is back to work and got to do a schooling jumper show over the weekend.

Rizzo headed home last night to the barn. She is doing great! The total bill was 3677. More then we like but Rizzo is worth it. Please consider donating or sharing the pinned posts at the top of her page to raise money. ♡♡

Rizzo is awake! She is doing wonderful. The vet didn't see a mass either once he got in. Lots of debris was removed and he said it had been backed up for a long time all the way to her coffin bone. It's draining and open now in a few spots. Rizzo will get a fancy back shoe to keep it clean and healthy well her foot regrows. They didn't have to lay her down or cut anything out since there was no mass, this will hopefully cut the cost drastically and make the healing quicker! ♡♡
Check the pinned link for donating or bidding on a painting of Rizzo to help with the costs.

Rizzo is heading for her surgery today. See the pinned link to donate or bid on the beautiful painting of her. We are trying to raise money for this 4000$ surgery.

Hey guys!
Rizzo is on need of some expensive surgery. The vet has estimated 4000 to 4500. Her back right foot has been a cause of on off abcesses and lameness since I met this sweet horse and we have finally figured out why. We don't know 100 percent what it is till they remove it and see but it is a mass that will not go away without removal. Rizzo is an amazing mare that has been living her second life happily since being rescued by HOP. Many of you have followed her journey since the ATFO. Please consider donating to her surgery! Rizzos friends and family love her. She has been participating in kids camp in NH with my sister this last month and loves it. This mare deserves everything we can do for her ♡♡♡

Since I am not competing this year I would love you all to follow and sponser a good friend of mine and her new rescue Desperado! Wish them luck and follow their journey to compete in this years 2024 ATFO.

The most boopable snoot there ever was. Desperado was a gentleman to load and haul home to Virginia.

Let the journey begin! Day 1 of his new beginning is just around the corner.

Im posting to let everyone know I will not be taking a baby to compete unfortunately. I have had some health concerns recently and need to take care of myself first. I wish all the competitors and horses goodluck and will still support and involve myself as much as I can!

We may *cough* be looking for sponsers for a cute baby to compete with in hand this year for ATFO. Babies will be randomly drawn with each trainer.

Whipper Snapper Division

If you've entered this division, we will be drawing the names of the foals and trainers
Friday, April 26th.

I will do this live and select a trainer from one bucket and a youngster from the next bucket to make a team!

You will, as a trainer, get a notification via email, Facebook or text to let you know where your young horse can be picked up. We can arrange to have them at the ATFO IF needed, but we prefer the young ones be picked up directly from their fosters.

There are only 4 days left to apply to compete in ANY division!
