Are you team winter or team summer? I personally LOVE the snow, but will admit everything is harder when it’s cold out! It’s hard to walk with heavy bibs, it’s hard to push heavy wheelbarrows through the snow, it’s hard to yank frozen spigot handles open…but our team doesn’t shy away from hard work and we wouldn’t miss being here for the horses for anything. Here’s a preview of a snow day on the farm!
Baby it’s Cold Outside!

Our NYNL crew are all bundled up in their winter blankies!
Rockwell Brewery and PetConnect Rescue brought Santa to Maryland all the way from the North Pole to come take pictures with all the best doggos and Phantom really wanted to meet him, too! Phantom was too tall to fit through the door so Santa Claus came outside to see him! #santa #merrychristmas

We had a fabulous time at The Lisbon Christmas Parade this weekend! The horses were absolutely amazing as always!
This year, two very special horses made their debut at the parade and we're so incredibly proud of them! Gobbler and Halo were both rescued on New Year's Eve last year - they were underweight, filthy, and exhausted. Today, they're bright, energetic, and their shiny coats glow so beautifully! Lucky Halo is being adopted by one of our very own volunteers (congrats Eileen!), and we hope that Gobbler will find her own special person very soon!
Let’s Talk Quarantine!
Anytime we bring new horses home from auction, or horses travel to us in commercial trailers, they go straight to our quarantine facility! Our founder and executive director, Christine Hajek, explains why quarantine is so important, while introducing some of our newest arrivals!
Gentle Giants was formed to facilitate the rescue of draft horses from slaughter, abuse, and neglect. horses for human consumption.
