We are located in the mountains 🏔️ of Ellijay Ga I have had a dream of running a rescue since I was a little girl. Having a huge heart for animals is sometimes a curse, but I wouldnt change it for any

thing. My goal is to be able to provide love and care for all animals that come to our rescue. I also love golden retreivers and siamese cats. We have 4 goldens and 3 siamese mixed kitties.

We are down to the crunch. We have received $390 so far towards this weeks feed amount of $650. We haven’t met the minimum amount needed in quite a few weeks. If there’s anything you can donate we would definitely appreciate and need it, and yes EVERY DOLLAR MATTERS ❤️!

WE NEED TO REACH OUR GOAL THIS WEEK DESPERATELY! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

$390 received of $650 needed.

It’s that time again! These rescues need to eat and they rely on all of us to help feed them.

We have not met our weekly needs in quite some time and our safety net funds are running extremely low. If you can donate, we sure would appreciate it! We need to get feed in Monday for next week, so we only have a few days to meet our goal.

Gracie “Saving Grace”.

She has so much personality and is such a loving girl. I rescued her for my husband in 2021 from a killpen in Texas when she was 15 months old. She was so skinny and absolutely terrified but not dangerous. She had the softest and most kind eye and could tell she wanted to trust.

Within about 2 weeks, she melted into our arms and gave us the best gift a horse can give, which is trust. It seemed to happen in the blink of an eye as that day.

She is the love of my husbands life and I might love her a little bit to 🤪. She really is an amazing girl and the absolute sweetest yet mischievous! Her grandfather was a million dollar barrel horse and her dad was Hancock bred. She is no barrel horse (she is slower than a turtle) but she is the best partner I could ever ask for, for my husband….

Well you might know that Willa got out, but you don’t know the full story…

So Willa got out of her enclosure, but it only took about 20 minutes to get her back to safety. David went to let the dogs in and happened to see her in the front pasture. Who only knows how she and the hirses sirvived that. After getting her in, we started walking the fence line to see where she could have gotten out. Well before we saw where, she decided to just show us 🫣.

So off for round 2… it was a strenuous 45 minutes of chasing her through the back pasture trying to keep Altas and Tonto away from her as they were at this point intrigued after running aroud like rabid horses not knowing which direction to go. Let me also tell you something you dont know. After arriving with Willa today, Tonto, the same horse that we now couldnt keep away, went through the perimeter fencing today after noticing there was yet another horse eating TRex in the pen 🙄. It’s a wire fencing that’s low in some areas and he just went over it. So now David and I are freaking out because the horses, except Willow of course because she doesn’t do anything pig related, are running up to the pig snorting and trying to sniff all over her. Then Willa decided to go into the front pasture where Brodhi and friends took off like wild horses and Willa is just walking carelessly while stopping occasionally to graze and grab a bite to eat. She catches on to us yet again and start running father up the pasture. After many negotiations, we finally get her back safely in the pen and I run to the area and guard it like I’m actually going to be able to stop a 200+ pound pig. Luckily I think she was tired and we were able to grab the cattle fencing and put it up…

🍷🍷 Good night folks! 🍷🍷

Willa had her first escape out of the fencing and into the horse pastures she ran, and so did the horses 🤣. Everyone is safe and cattle panels installed!

Atlas can be so playful! He's such a handsome horse. And such a toddler!

I have some exciting news to share!!

My husband David has been hired as the new Manager of Smiths Feed Supply in Ellijay Ga! We are super excited about this opportunity ❤️.

Next week 🗓️ , stop by to stock up on your farming 🐴 🐄 🐓 🐖 🐐 🦌 needs and say hello to David! From bulk fertilizer to bulk feed, hay, equipment and supplies, Smiths Farm Supply has it all!!

We have been using Smiths Farm Supply for over a year and the customer service has been the best as well as their pricing! With 14 store locations and delivery 🚚 available, give them a try!

They also have nutritionalists that will come help you make the right decision on what feed would be best for your equines. When we get new rescues in, the nutritionalist is always my first call to help ensure our equines get everything they need! Feed plays an important role in a horses overall health, so it’s definitely worth it!

Don’t forget to let them know, Blair Haven Farm 🐎 sent you!

Over fifty years later, we offer a huge selection of feeds, fertilizers, farm supplies, hand and power tools, lawn and garden supplies, and more – With over 12,000 items and counting, we have something for everyone.

We have the trainer coming March 26th and then every Tuesday for the next 3 months so we can get Tonto, Scout and Indie trained and be able to get them adopted out. We try to ensure the perfect homes for our rescues and we feel knowing what they will be good at will allow us to pair each if them with the perfect home.

The cost for training is $50 per hour. If you would like to sponsor an hour of training please put training in the memo when donating. I’d love to be able to have 2 hours of training each week for the next 12 weeks, so we would need to raise $2400.
