Dixie & Lily’s return is a reminder that adoption is not the end of responsibility — it’s the continuation of care. Every horse deserves safety, dignity, and a tomorrow better than yesterday. Explanations don’t erase responsibility. Adoption agreements exist for this very reason: to prot...

Hank—Shooter, Mr. Magoo—gave years of his life as a therapy horse, standing quietly through countless sessions and carrying emotions with grace. When his needs grew, safe retirement options were offered—but on Saturday, his life was cut short. 💔

Introduction When Anna first reached out for help, I never imagined it would become the moment where I had to face that painful truth: you cannot save all the horses. I’ve learned a lot through this experience—about the therapy horse arena, about how decisions get made, and about what those deci...

Huge thanks to Idaho Animal Rescue Network 💛 for having a voice on his behalf. We wouldn’t have been able to do even the little we did without you guys.

Foal Update: Yahoo!

Great news—our little filly’s bloodwork came back with flying colors! After a whirlwind start to life, this is exactly what we were hoping for. She’s alert and spunky.

She’s still struggling a bit to get up on her own—more from the slick rubber mats than her own ability. Thank you to everyone who’s been rooting for her.

Yesterday morning, a newborn filly entered the world—and she’s already fighting for her life. Diagnosed with neonatal maladjustment syndrome , commonly known as “dummy foal syndrome,” she’s struggled since birth to nurse and bond the way a healthy foal should. But this story didn’t begin...

We’ve Been MIA… But With Good Reason!

If you’re wondering where we’ve been—we’ve been knee-deep in pasture prep, hauling trailers, and whispering sweet nothings to four very pregnant mares like, “Please not today, ladies.”

We’re still moving (yes, still) 🐎—but we’re hopeful to have it all wrapped up by the end of May. And here’s the exciting part: we’ve integrated a separate 200-acre parcel into our program where carefully matched herds can roam, graze, and heal in open pasture. It’s a shift that reflects everything we believe in—because horses thrive when they have space to move, connect, and just be horses.
