Bak's transformation in just 45 days!! 21 yr young Gypsy Vanner will be evaluated soon. We have been busy getting him back to weight and healthy. He has been great for the farrier and vet and easy, fun to be around. He is a COMPLETE LOVE! We do have riding photos from a prior home. All around great boy... stay tuned! Bak will be available for adoption once he is up to full weight and evaluated. He is dealing with anhidrosis so we are doing all we can to get this boy to sweat. The vet did say that his body may reset. We are praying. This boy deserves the very best!

Gypsy's transformation in just 45 days!! Gypsy Vanner cross 16 year old mare will be evaluated soon. We have been busy getting her back to weight and healthy. She has been great for the farrier and vet and easy to be around. We do have riding videos from a prior home. All around great girl... stay tuned! BTW, we have a suspicion that she may have been bred, previous owner said no however this belly is big, even when she was thin. I think we just may need a blood test or ultra sound to confirm. What do you think

Sunday update:
With 20 horses here, the days are filled with chores, training, bathing/grooming, doctoring, and giving affection. We don't skip giving scratches, hugs, petting, and even kisses. Every horse feels safe and loved. At the end of the day (when we're tired, dirty, and smelly) we thank God for our generous donors who keep the rescue funded. Please give when you can and share rescue posts when you can't. 🙏

First, I want to apologize for the lack of pictures, videos and lives. It is just so busy with the day to day care of the horses plus I haven’t been feeling so good. Please be patient with us.
Lots of updates:
Adoptions have been super slow. I’m praying this changes soon as the feed and hay bill is outrageous right now.

Riley: what a great beautiful baby. We are in the process with of weaning Riley from Bae. Riley will receive his vaccines and coggins on Monday and will be available for adoption. Please share share share our adoption post. Currently, we have 8 available for adoption! I will get photos and post Bae, Riley and the 2 minis for adoption early this week ❤️🐴

Ranger is available for adoption. We have received several applications and have appointments scheduled. We are being very selective on his adoption as we want him to be brought to his full potential. We will continue with his training until the right home comes along. Ranger is smart and has the looks!

Bae: we are working with Bae at least 3 days a week and she is now available for adoption. Bae is up to date on coggins, vaccines, dental and trim. She is only 5 and has become very laid back. She will be available as a project. I want to send her to training with Cat Zimmerman however we just cannot afford it right now.

Cheyanne: she is doing fantastic. I cabbie believe she has not been adopted. Cheyanne is an amazing trail horse. Way more whoa than go.

Lilly: what a great companion mare that is available! Beautiful, up to date on everything and the adoption fee has been sponsored by an angel donor. She is doing fantastic.

Cowboy: available for adoption, great all around trail horse. Such a sweet expressive gentle soul!

Ryka: we sent the DNA test in to the saddlebred association. Ryka will be going to a local saddlebred rescue as soon as they are able to take her in.

Bak: I cannot express enough how sweet Bak is. Bak loves attention. We are still working on getting him up to weight. He is huge so eats a ton! Bak is not sweating so he is getting dark beer everyday. Any other suggestions to help him would be great!

Gypsy: gaining weight nicely however she does have a ways to go. She is a gypsy cross and eats and eats and eats lol. I cannot wait for her to be completely healthy so we can evaluate her.

Rio: we call him the Barbie dream horse! He is gaining weight nicely. He has decided he’s in love with Cheyanne. Cabot wait to evaluate him once he is up to full weight.

Morgan: great news. I believe Morgan has a sponser. The sponser has been coming out for awhile and they connected! Happy happy! Linda has been doing a wonderful job working with Morgan.

Minis: Bridget and Snicjers are losing weight very nicely and way more comfortable. We need to find them a home that will understand their strict diet.

Roy boy: healing up very nicely. He passed his vet check with flying colors. He has been graduated to the 12x24 stall.

We are in serious need of senior feed, alfalfa pellets, hay pellets, we will need at least 2 round bales this week. We have an account at Winning Circle Feed Store. You can call them directly at 727-863-0001.

We have been working hard on our obstacle course. We are doing all we can to get each and every rescue ready for adoption. Please continue to share our post and again thank you for your patience. Please send prayers and positive vibes!! ❤️🐴
