Fox Chase Farm

Most lessons were canceled this week but the kids braved the heat to get all the lesson horses bathed and dry in front of the fan.

That girl that’s always smiling as she enters the barn has dealt with more loss and sadness than you can possibly imagine.

That girl and her horse that look so put together in their matchy matchy sets look that way because for her, everything has to be perfect on the outside so no one knows that it’s falling apart on the inside.

Your horse trainer is run ragged trying to keep his or her horses and clients happy and if one more person yells at them, they feel like they are going to break.

Literally everyone you know - and I mean 𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚𝒐𝒏𝒆 you know is struggling right now. The barn is our sanctuary in such an unsettled world, and for some of us it is the only one we have. Always remember that before an unkind word or thought is spoken or put out into the universe 🫶🖤🐴

Good morning everyone! A good friend of the farm is preparing to run the Berlin Marathon in 2024, and she is making horse and dog treats to help raise money. Please think about buying a bag of treats for your best friend! This is from her page:

Hey everyone! I’ll be running the in 2024 with the team!

PAWS is dedicated to building a No Kill Chicago where all healthy and treatable pets are saved. Since 1997 when PAWS was founded, the number of homeless animals euthanized per year in Chicago has dropped by over 92.5 percent. But there is still more work to be done and your generosity is crucial.

This charity is near and dear to my heart because our dog, Nico was found on the streets of South Africa. Without his dog rescue, Oscar’s Arc, he would never have found his furever home. Please support and buy some homemade dog treats.

1/$12 or 2/$20, shipping is available for an additional cost. You can Venmo me at Jessica-Coyne or visit the donation page and donate directly there, https://donate.pawschicago.org/fundraiser/5132879

Thank you! Let’s help these pups and kitty cats out! Please share with your friends and family!

⚠️ WARNING: RUG CLIPS ⚠️

If your horse has rug clips like these, ensure they are done up correctly, facing the horse. If not, they can easily get caught on hay nets, fencing and anything else your horse may find and potentially cause an accident.

This is so true, our littlest riders start at the age of 3 and we have some riders in their 70s! We have a great barn family, where age is just a number.
