Take The Lead Inc is currently working to try to save this horse who presents with a catastrophic case of white line disease. This disease is totally manageable had it been treated when first identified. This horse will now face about a year rehab (if we are lucky) before new healthy hoof is grown out.

Our very first rehab that we did as a partner for TFH, Cotton Valley is living his best life with his adopter Janelle. Cotton had a rough start to his retirement and we actually took him back for a while to help his adopter with some hoof issues. We are so happy she was able to offer him a home after we helped get his feet together.

Always Funny in his new home! Retired racehorses are so versatile. Finding them great homes after their careers takes time, honesty, and hard work. Aftercare requires dedication and follow up.

RIP Ruth & Blue
Sadly we had to say goodbye to sweet Ruth & Blue. They will always hold a special place in our heart.
We would like to thank Horse Plus Humane Society for their financial assistance for the Last Act of Kindness. It was the kindest option, and Ruth & Blue are no longer suffering or in pain. The girls went over the bridge together, on a beautiful sunny day. Ruth’s progressive weakness and inability to stand up after lying down, and Blues fused ankle led us to the hard decision to humanly euthanize both mares.
