Saving is what we do... did you know you can be a part of their rehab? 🐴 Sure, our sponsorship opportunity is a great way for you to have fun with one or more of your favorite , but, it's so much more than that. One of the most important parts of our rehab process is helping our horses feel love and care from as many people as possible. 💞 It helps them feel more comfortable around people and boosts their morale. 🐎 If you'd like to pick a horse to show some love to, click our inquiry form below. ⬇️ Your sponsorship fee will go directly to the care of that horse, including food, vet fees and farrier. 📲 https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeaUmlN5Tk-M6pscDBOSx30N49sgTcteZX2019e7334y8tLtg/viewform

💭 𝗥𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 “𝗪𝗵𝘆” 🐴

Why did you fall in love with horses?
Not the ribbons.
Not the scores.
Not the fancy tack or perfectly posed photos.

Go back further…
To the little kid who begged to muck stables just for a chance to be near a horse.

To the one who galloped around the backyard on a broomstick, convinced they were riding in the Olympics.

To the teenager who found peace brushing a horse after a rough day at school.

That was your “why.”
That innocent, unfiltered love.
The pure joy.
The connection.
The magic.

Somewhere along the way, as we grow up, we start asking more of ourselves — and of our horses.We chase goals, compare ourselves to others, get caught in the grind. And slowly, that childhood spark can start to fade under the weight of adult expectations.

But here’s the truth: Your truest happiness still lives in that young version of you. The one who didn’t care what the horse did — just that they were.

So today, take a moment. Put the pressure down. Brush your horse like you used to. Sit in the grass and just be with them. Reconnect with the “why” that started it all.
Because that — not the ribbons or results — is what keeps your heart in the saddle. 🧡
