Working on trust!
We work hard to create WILLING partners that will not just follow the path but trust us to lead them where we need them to go. So proud of Goose! #rescue #horses #trust #partnership
Wishing everyone a wonderful Thanksgiving with gratitude for the little things…fall colors, a cool breeze and of course God’s creatures! #horses #rescue #Thanksgiving #fallvibes #grateful
Faith is doing so well! From a horse we couldn’t touch, we’re creating a willing partner through patience and love.
Creating a willing partner takes time and patience…we’re in for the long haul.
This horse was so traumatized when she arrived; few could even touch her. We don’t “break” horses, we want them to choose us! We’re so proud of this girl. It’s taken years, and that’s ok! #Faith #horses #rescue #faithoverfear #lovingkindness
Billy “Graham” is settling in nicely. He’s in our quarantine space and will stay there for 30 days. Slaughter horses go through so much, this gives them a chance to decompress and learn to trust us. The vet was pleased…eye infection and snotty nose but overall he’s doing well! #savedfromslaughter #rescue #horses #BillyGraham #sleep
Well, we can’t figure out how to shorten the video so here it is in its entirety. It was a long trip, so he’s getting settled with the vet coming tomorrow. We’re so happy he’s here and safe. #rescue #homesweethome #savedfromslaughter
He’s here!
Trying to upload the video of him unloading…need to shorten it. But, he’s here!
So what is the big deal…you put a kid on a horse. It IS a big deal. Most of these children come from severely underserved communities, some are homeless. Most have never touched an animal, and certainly haven’t touched a horse. Everyone comes with some trepidation…and just like the rescue horses they ride, we earn their trust and by the end of their time, many are asking to take a second trail ride. We love what we do. We’re grateful to share these beautiful animals with so many well deserving communities. So ride into your weekend with a smile… #faithoverfear #horses #rescue #horsebackriding #trailride #kids
What a special time we had with Julie's Dream! God provided a beautiful day to share our rescue horses and property with this sweet group of underserved children. Thank you to our wonderful volunteers who helped with arts and crafts and field games. We had a blast! #rescue #horses #kids #horseriding
Wishing you a weekend rolling on the ground with laughter (or scratching your back like Oreo). 🥰
Oreo, roll, baby roll! #Oreo #horses #rescue #weekend #rofl
It’s been a wonderful week, with underserved children visiting our farm to ride the horses, play games, hike, create art and even finding a secret pumpkin patch. We are blessed to share our rescue with others! Wilderness Works #horses #rescue #kids
We’ve been busy welcoming children underserved in our community to enjoy the horses, art and the great outdoors. Thank you Julie's Dream ! #horses #rescue #kids #artsandcrafts
