HUGE Thank you to Kathy V. For sponsoring Morgan. ❤️🐴

Sponsoring a horse is a HUGE help to the rescue as far as cost of feed, hay and supplements and you can come out to visit. We will also send you special updates on the horse you sponsored.

It is super hard to fundraise for feed and hay, many will donate to save the horse but follow up care, feed, hay and supplements is just as important.

Horses that still need sponsorship:
Roy
Bak
Bob
Jack
Joe
Indie
Rosie

Sunday night update:
New sorrel gelding - the name drawing filled quickly thanks to all of you. We will go live tomorrow to pick his name. He is doing good, still giving him ulcerguard which has helped tremendously. He is very angry which we understand. He is in pain, has charged at me a few times, he has a large knot on his knee and his rear stifle gets stuck. We are giving him pain meds and will have the vet look into this further. I am so grateful that we were able to take him in. He was being advertised as 12 and he is mid twenties, sound and he is not and safe which he is not. This boy would have ended up in a very bad situation. I am praying we can turn this boy around.

Rosie - she is doing great. We are feeding her several small meals throughout the day. I cannot wait till she gains weight and can have a dental. Her teeth are terrible. She is an absolute doll. We have put her on prascend. Cannot wait for this girls glow up.

Indie - we have named the mare we picked up yesterday, Indie. My son's Alan and Alex picked her up for me as we were here getting everything ready for her. It took them a very long time to load her. I thank both of them for their kindness, patience and support. Indie is a very sweet girl. Said to be 12 years old and has been involved in 2 fires in her young life. She was in a barn fire when she was young then was in a pasture right next to a house fire. Poor girl, she is so sweet and kind. It is amazing how horse forgive and forget.

Morgan - Morgan is doing super good. Morgan came in full of fear, did not want to be touched and did not trust anything or anyone. I have been working with him everyday and he is getting better and better. Morgan loves to play and is happy however he is very sensitive. One day at a time with this boy.

Bak - Bak is doing great. He is still gaining weight nicely. Bak is a one of a kind boy. He has a puppy dog personality and loves to be pampered. Bak will stay with us for awhile so we can get down to his allergies and make sure we set him up for success.

Jack & Bob - both are doing fantastic. Bob is in charge of the 2. They have a healthy bond. They can be separated however they do love each other and bring the best out in each other so we will adopt them out together. Both are fantastic trail horses. No spook, great for vet, farrier and loading. They are now technically available for adoption. If you are looking for 2 great trail horses, please reach out. Both are 22 years young. Bob is beginner safe and Jack is intermediate.

Roy - Roy is all healed up and doing fantastic. We just love our Roy Boy! He is a farm favorite for sure. We will be adding a pasture with a shelter just for Roy as he cannot go out with the big horses. He thinks he is a 17H 2 year old lol

I want to tell each of you THANK YOU! We would not be able to help as many horses as we have and do without you. Also want to tell our adopters Thank you for choosing adoption. Keep the updates coming.

Stay tuned for the love tomorrow :-)

❌❌ EMERGENCY FUNDRAISER ❌❌ $1040 to keep this mare out of the pipeline

Local horse owner called to ask if we could take her mare in. She is at the point of having to choose between horse feed and feed for her children. We cannot ask for an owner surrender fee to assist with the first 2 months of feed, hay, vetting and farrier. We need to raise 2 months of feed, hay, initial vetting and farrier. Please help us help this mare.

1st month feed and hay $350
2nd month feed and hay $350
Initial vetting of coggins, dental, sedation and vaccines $340 = $1040 to bring her in

The rescue is 100% supported by donations.

A little about this sweet girl:
The vet came out yesterday and aged her in late teens. We are giving her ulcerguard daily to help with her gut. She is getting free choice hay and soaked Timothy pellets, we will slowly add in grain and soaked beet pulp. This girl is sweet sweet! I want to thank each of you for helping us with this girl. I cannot wait to see her glow up. She will never go without again, she will never endure neglect again.

A little about this boy!
The vet came yesterday and pulled coggins, aged him in mid twenties, was told 12-15 years old, we made an appointment for 3 weeks to get his dental done. He had explosive diarrhea for the first 24 hours, we feed free choice hay and soaked Timothy pellets and giving him ulcerguard and probiotics daily and the diarrhea has cleared up. We will slowly add in grain and more alfalfa. He is very angry right now and we do not blame him. He doesn’t feel good and I’m positive this horse has had a rough life. He will come around with our routine, good nutrition, vetting and lots of love. I want to thank each and everyone of you for changing this boys life. No more being passed around, no more lack of nutrition, no more abuse or neglect.

Thank you to Tammy, Leann, Libby, Angel, Jeanie & Kristen for all your help today. The paint pony mare got a great bath and the gelding got lots of love! They will be in quarantine for a full 30 days. Last pic is Lynn, not the sorrel gelding! We will do a name challenge for the 2 new babies tomorrow to assist with vet bills. Thank you again to everyone that helped get these 2 here. They 💯 needed us ❤️🐴

01/16/2025

Thank you to everyone that helped make this happen. We as a Pack are going to make huge difference in the lives of these 2 horses. We just got home and they are settled in. We will have the vet out as the gelding had explosive diarrhea when he loaded, poor boy. We will provide proper nutrition, lots of love, treats, vetting, farrier, eventually evaluate, any training needed and find the perfect forever homes. One horse at a time… one day at a time ❤️🐴

“Bella is doing good, the farrier has been out to see her and says she is looking good, she stood well for him.
We got her a a sheet incase it gets cold and rainy, she looks very cute in it. Friday she is being measured for us to start ordering tack for her. The trainer will start with her next month”

We’re on our way to pick up a pony mare that’s in rough shape. The guy who has her also has a 12-15 yr old sorrel gelding in rough shape, as well . We would really like to help both, but we just can’t afford it without your help. We already have $340 towards him from the previous fundraiser. We will be there in 2 hours!!! Without your help we can’t save the gelding too.
