So the puppies were claimed by their owner around the corner. Apparently they slipped under the back fence which has a tiny 4-6 inch gap way back in one corner. Have no idea how mama dog got in! Meanwhile Dottie got a bath this week and had her feet done!

Well greener pastures for Ms Silver today. We are transitioning back to rescue and disabled horses only with no more training/riding onsite. Ms SIlver has been a rock. One of the foundation horses upon which this farm was built. Kids have learned to ride on her. Adults have re-learned to ride on her and Volunteers have developed some serious horsemanship skills from her. She will be utilized in that capacity to her fullest now at her new home with Sarah Fields. We can't wait to see her bloom! But, we will miss her.

Clareece driving Ms Silver

For those of you who do not know. Ms Sharon has suffered some horse related injuries this spring and is unable to ride or teach riding. Clareece, however, has been stepping in with horse therapy/training and has developed a great bond with Silver. The two if them had an excellent long line workout today!

Well Clareece and Ashtyn were a huge help in the little jaunt to the vet clinic yesterday. Silver got a consult on her ringbone, which is ironically improving, had her teeth floated and got a Coggins pulled. SO glad my entourage is dedicated and reliable!

Very thankful for these two new Mo West volunteers! Grooming goats. Cleaning barns. Running fence and fixing gates! True cowgirls in the making.

So while we wait on the vet eval on Pereches, the Arab Mare, we are currently looking for a clinical trial for this guy, Andy. He has Wobbler syndrome and Texas A and M has just kicked off a research project involving Wobbler syndrome. So fingers crossed that Andy can come for rehab under their supervision!

Well things are a'changin out here on the farm! Hated to say goodbye to Maceo this week who is graduating from MoWest. She has been a valuable part of the team for 3 years and an excellent JR TRAINER. She has lunged, ridden and cared for dozens of horses. She worked them, trained them and even got thrown off some of 'em. She's a loyal, dedicated and determined young lady! Our most sincere congratulations as she moves to Colorado to attend Vet School!

04/26/2024

Well we are sad to say goodbye to Martha. However we are very excited that she was adopted by a great guy who has been a long time supporter of the farm, Tim Prince. Martha will be re-locating to Tennessee where she will join Tim's other mules as a guide through the mountains. She might even make it to Idaho to hunt down a moose!

So it is with a heavy heart that we say goodbye to Lopin' Lena, a great AQHA mare, who came to us as a bag of bones due to human neglect and ignorance. Our staff, especially Kelsee Henrichs and Abby Tolbert, cared diligently for her. With proper exercise and rehab she regained her strength while urgently needed vet care, food and supplements restored her health. Unfortunately, it was too little too late. RIP gorgeous creature.

2023 was a truly bittersweet year for the farm. A year ago, we lost our beloved Arabian mare Sheba. Shortly thereafter, we had to let Dan and Bert go, as our funds were severly depleted with the enormous bill's associated with Sheba's passing. However, our spirits were immediately raised when we took in little Petey and Flika, our abandoned young filly! With good care and patience, we brought them back from the brink and found them great homes. Then came Lena, who has blossomed into a beautiful halter horse (and will be up for adoption in April). Martha, Jerry and Dottie followed and still remain along with Ms Silver. We are grateful.

Meet Martha. Martha has suspensory ligament damage and her owners were afraid to ride her as she stumbles and falls down. We have a plan to rehab and rehome her as soon as she comes out of quarantine. In the meantime, we think she might be useful as a circus horse (mule) !

11/15/2023

So many thanks for those who worked on, Contributed to and attended "Over the Rainbow" our annual Daddy/daughter dance & fundraiser! Two special thanks to UMB who provided all of our printing and copying needs and to Frank Pollack at The Missouri theater for designing an awesome set!

06/20/2023

We are very pleased that Silvers huge gash is healing. Thank God the knee is finally closed so she can stop popping stitches! Many thanks to volunteers Abby and Joey for their help in keeping it wrapped and to Ms Corenzo for donating to secure her antibiotics.

06/16/2023
