Update: Baloo was adopted!

That easy, breezy, beautiful hair look! Baloo mastered posing like a cover model, but hasn’t found his forever home yet. This soft coated boy isn’t fully grown yet, but he’s happy, social and loves other dogs. Baloo does have some growing pains in his back end, and needs a little TLC while his legs body finishes growing. Is Baloo the perfect dog for you?

Baloo is a male Great Pyrenees mix and we think he is 8-10 months old. Baloo’s adoption fee is $175, and he is available for foster!

Grateful to those who entrusted me with their seniors because they chose to do right by their horse who had served them.

Do you still love your horse if he no longer meets your expectations?

Loving, is without expectations, otherwise it is attachment.

Let this sink in.....

If you are being very honest with yourself, what does your horse need to comply with to be self-satisfied? Does he have to perform certain achievements? To what purpose? What does it bring you? What does it bring to your horse? What are you attached to?

Are you also very happy with your horse, and do you still love him just as much when he is no longer as healthy, and no longer accomplishes what you want with him? Or do you sell him and move on with another horse?

Will you take care of the cost for your animal until death do you part? Does he have 4 legs or 3 legs? Big ears, a hanging belly, a messy coat?

Your horse accepts you just as you are. Even when you don’t have your day, and sometimes it affects you. When he gets punched because he cant stand still. When he has to walk through a badly fitted saddle with back pain. He still loves you just as much.

Even in the harshest of circumstances, he sees the good in you, and wants harmony, even if it costs his health and his life. He takes you just as you are.

And even when he's all up, and it's not going well, he wants before you, to be well. These are the horses that are shining in the barn and broken inside.

Saw this picture passing by, it is so fitting for how I feel about horses, had to share it. For all our loyal four-legged friends, I hope for more awareness.

Team-life

𝐈 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡…

I was never enough… I was too quiet, but not 𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐞𝐭 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡, I was too loud, but not 𝐥𝐨𝐮𝐝 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡.
I was too skinny, but not 𝐬𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐲 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡, I was too fat, but not 𝐟𝐚𝐭 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡.

I was told, have opinions but not too many opinions, speak your truth but not all your truth. Be a lady, but have a wild side. Be courageous, but also a damsel in distress.
You have to be beautiful and funny all at the same time, mental health equals mental weakness. Don’t let others see your weaknesses.

Make sure you can cook, clean and sew. Be sure to live for making others happy, have dreams but don’t have too many dreams.

I will love you, but from a distance… 𝐈 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡. Until I found 𝐦𝐲 𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐬.

𝐈 𝐚𝐦 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 too you. You want me to be myself, to show my strengths and weaknesses. To be as opinionated as I want to be, to be as skinny or as fat I’d like to be. You think I’m everything… I’m your world and you are mine.

𝐈 𝐚𝐦 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡…

Things you should know before buying a horse:

1. They will multiply. You’ll have one, then suddenly you’ll have another, and the cycle repeats itself for all of eternity. Pro tip: Some horses are the exact same color. This means those free souls who are not horse people aka husbands will not be able to tell the difference. You can have multiple horses of the same color and claim to have only one and your husband will never know.

2. You will buy specific outfits to wear around your horse. They will smell terrible. Then you will go shopping in these outfits and everyone in the grocery store will turn their noses up and avoid you. These outfits will cost more than everyone’s grocery carts combined and yet you will smell and look like a complete pauper.

3. Barn time is not like other time. You might go to the barn planning on spending an hour there, but you won’t leave until the barn feels its time for you to go. A week later you might walk out to see your husband and kids lying in the driveway waiting for dinner. There’s no telling what the barn will decide. It is its own entity. Respect it. Don’t make plans around it.

4. They wear shoes. Like human shoes, except 5x more expensive. Also, they only wear them if they want to. Some days, they’ll take their shoes off and leave them piled up in the mud. It’s impossible to find these shoes after they leave them somewhere.

5. You will be called horse girl. You can take this as you’d like to take it. Some horse girls take it poorly. Some take it well. Sometimes its an insult. Sometimes it’s a mark of respect for a human who is strong enough to keep a 1200Ib “my sole purpose is to die from stomachaches” animal alive.

6. Oh yes, stomachaches. Did we not cover stomach aches yet? My bad. Let me explain. Horses don’t like having stomach aches. When you have a stomachache, you might have a soothing drink and sit down a minute. Horses are not like you. Horses will feel slightly off anywhere in their bodies and will simply decide to give up the ghost. Everything and anything can kill a horse. If it moves, it will kill a horse. If it doesn’t move, it will kill a horse. If you’re not sure if it moves or doesn’t move, it will still kill a horse.

7. Most importantly, horses will change your life. You will cry and laugh at the same time. You will look like a total fool at a show, but you will have the time of your life doing it. You will meet people who’ve got the horse bug too and suddenly you’ll have a second family. You will ride one day and then spend four days trying to learn how to get out of your car without groaning. You will have horse cookies in your laundry and your house will smell like your best friend. You will spend every waking minute and every sleeping half second thinking about them. And, when the moon aligns with the earth just right, the tree sways in the exact manner needed, and the birds quiet for one instant, you will realize you are living inside the dream you had as a child. You will be the princess on a horse.
