👖Dame Royal's Story

We can't believe this mare is still available! Indigo is adoptable through our friends at Hope's Legacy Equine Rescue. She has lots of knowledge and is easy as pie to care for. Consider giving her a home for Christmas.

Our new friend is an older guy that can use some help staying warm when the temperature drops below freezing. He looks fetching in his navy, turquoise, and aqua blue Horseware Amigo turnout blanket.

💋Fairbanks Kiss' Story

This week's exercise is navigating a labyrinth. Chanda is riding Offelia in a halter and ba****ck pad for her Equagility practice. This exercise requires precise turns and maneuverability which is fun and challenging to practice.

🫒Oliver's Story

Oliver was reunited with his friends at Feel Better Farm - Equine and Farm Animal Rescue this week. We will miss seeing his inquisitive face in the barn but are excited that he has a sanctuary home. Oliver exceeded our expectations and made tremendous progress during his six-month stay. He is our first EWS horse to win a first place ribbon in a The International Horse Agility Club competition. Congratulations Oliver!

🫒Oliver's Story

All of our horses practice trailer loading and unloading. Like all skills, the more positive experience the more confident horses become. Oliver will leave us with trailering expertise, but he will need continued practice on a regular basis to master and maintain them.

Offelia can be tacked in cross-ties or in her stall. Having had an extensive racing career, she is no stranger to the routine.
